God and Honour
Jesus rejected honour and popularity among people. We can recall many instances wherein He warned and asked people to not tell anyone about the miracle He performed on them(Mark 3:12). He was against the human way of honouring Him. He knew their hearts were full of material things and this was one of the reasons… Continue reading

God is Faithful
Those who serve God lack no good thing(Psalm 34:10). They will be led out like calves from a stall(Mal 4:2). Even the hair of their heads are numbered(Luke 12:7). There is more gladness in them than in a rich man’s house with abundance of food and drink (Psalm 4:7). The lives of the Saints was… Continue reading

Good Friendship
Friendship Friendship is a very beautiful relationship. Friends stick close to each other. A close friend is better than a brother (Proverbs 18:24). A person lays down his life for his friend(John 15:13). Jesus called us friends as we know his plans and He shares everything with us(John 15:15). St Maximilian Kolbe offered as a… Continue reading

A Godly Death
Death can be distasteful. But, God can use it to sprout out a new seed(John 12:24) and bring glory to the Saint’s motherland. The martyrdom of His Saints was shared by Him to them well before in their life(John 15:15). Therefore, He called them friends. St Edith Stein was recorded to know about her death… Continue reading

His own precious blood gives courage to Saints during their martyrdom. Some Saints like St Gonzalo Garcia died a very torturous death with a… Continue reading

Praying Right
Pray daily. King David prayed early in the morning [Psalm 63:1a]. Prayer solves every kind of problem. It is a token of love to God and that we belong to him. God asks meaningful prayers from us and also to pray with the room closed, so that he may reward us [Matthew 6:6]. Jesus prayed… Continue reading

On Poverty
Poor souls please the Lord. There are plenty of instances in the Scriptures about this. Good News was first proclaimed to the poor Shepherds [Luke 2:8-12]. Even the lowly people like Lazarus, from the rich man’s story, was accepted into Heaven [Luke 16:19-31]. Jesus, also, was from a materially poor background. This was for a… Continue reading

God Demands Complete Surrender
Jesus wants complete surrender from us to his will. He asks us to invest in eternal things where moths and rust do not destroy the riches nor thieves break in to steal them [Matthew 6:19]. We should offer him all spotless and fine things like Abel who offered the finest things from his harvest [Genesis… Continue reading

Peaceful Living With Animals
God did intend it for us to have dominion over all animals since the time of creation of this world [Genesis 1:28]. But he expected peaceful coexistence from our side. This could be seen in the Bible. Here, God asks to behave with an Ox working for the Israelites [Deuteronomy 25:4]. This was true with… Continue reading
