Saints and Past
The Saints were all not born with perfection and holiness. Some were gravely into sin. But others were very mild in it. They slowly grew in virtues and the great Saints they have become today. It was a journey. St Therese of Lisieux was recorded to have thrown tantrums and a fit of rage or… Continue reading

Great risks for God
Many of God’s people would trust in his Providence and risk everything for his call. The dangers awaiting them while doing this will of his did not discourage them. They took great risks towards spreading of the gospel to remote places. One of the great Saints, St Francis Xavier, volunteered to go on a journey… Continue reading

Saints and God: Intense Communication
The communication between God and his Saints was intense. They used to be lost in prayers for hours together at a time unmindful of their surroundings and people peeping into this activity. This was true in the life of St Martin Porres. His landlady was peeping into his room to see what was going on… Continue reading

Prayers
God’s healing in his people’s lives takes its own time. He makes everything beautiful in his time(Ecclesiastes 3:11). His promises may take time, but are sure and amen(2 Cor 1:20). Wherever prayers are offered to God, there is hope(Proverbs 23:18). Our duty is to pray without ceasing(1 Thes 5:17). Many Saints prayed constantly. St Faustina… Continue reading

Saints: Against Publicity
God never wants us to seek earthly things(Romans 12:2). He has made it obvious in the life of his Saints too. They never liked publicity. Many great Saints lived the lives of hermits in forests to have a deep spiritual awakening. More so, Saints like Padre Pio never liked the spiritual phenomenon of the Stigmata… Continue reading

Faith and Reason
Reason seems to be all around us. It makes us think that everything has a cause. While the realm of faith makes us think differently. The Bible teaches us to believe in the supernatural world with countless miracles. The Church itself has a large collection of relics of Saints to prove this supernatural world. The… Continue reading

A Holy Death
Jesus Christ conquered death on the Cross. Death stings us no more(1Corinthians 15:55). After Jesus’ victory we are raised imperishable and enter eternal life, if we live in His grace(1Corinthians 15:42). For this is what we strive for(1Corinthians 9:24). The death of Saints was holy. St Anthony of Padua saw Jesus at the moment of… Continue reading

Jesus- The Best Gift
Jesus is the best gift we can give to anyone. He is a very good friend (John 15:13) and a faithful companion. He was offered by his apostles to them who had nothing (Acts 3:6). His healing hands can give anything that we lack in health- may be, we have been searching for it since… Continue reading

Predestination
Predestination is the set time from God for a person’s life and every activity that happens in it to be decided by Him, beforehand. He does so by going before Him in time(Isaiah 45:2). This may be communicated to the person in a vision. I know a man who was predestined. This was made known… Continue reading
About Me
I’m a preacher and share a very close bond with Mother Mary. Being a Freelance Writer and having a Content Writing experience of over ten years, writing has become a part of my life.
