God’s Plans
God works in elaborate plans in the lives of his people who are consecrated to him (Jer 29:11). He is pleased to do what he wills in them (Psalm 115:3). He is their refuge (Psalm 46:1) and gathers them under his wings protecting from every harm or danger (Mt 23:37). St Therese of Lisieux was… Continue reading

Persecution and Suffering
No doubt persecution and suffering are an integral part of Christian life. But Christ, himself, suffers with us when we go through these testing times. He does not leave us alone (Mt 25:40). He has a reason for every suffering that is from his will. Many Saints suffered: St Therese had a nervous disorder for… Continue reading

Material World
Money does bring happiness, but it won’t last for long. Families that were once thriving and teeming with love have gone down into fights and lawsuits. Also, no one needs to move a boundary line set by elders through generations (Proverbs 22:28). It only brings hatred and enmity. Pleasures received from God last a lifetime… Continue reading

Food in Godly Terms
Food is the main worry for people around. But Jesus asks us not to worry about it. He fed Elijah with the help of Ravens (1Kings 17:4,6). He can do anything. Jesus asked us not to be concerned about food (Mt 6:25,26). He feeds the birds of the air daily. Would he not feed you… Continue reading

Suffering Saints
God has plans for us in life. These are for our own good. He thinks about nothing else but our own good (Jer 29:11). He is a good God and works in every thing and way for this purpose through peaceful means. He is called the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). Also, when he afflicts,… Continue reading

Mercy of God
God is very near to the broken-hearted and crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). He wants everyone to be saved and none to be lost before the great day of judgment (1 Tim 2:4). We should be at peace with him before this terrible day (Mt 5:25). He awaits us with a lot of graces before… Continue reading

Astounding Miracles
The Lord Jesus has compassion for his people. He healed many during his life on Earth. There are countless miracles done by him that the pages of the Bible cannot contain (John 20:30). Even his Saints have brought about many miracles through his holy name. The most prominent of these could be from the shadow… Continue reading

Obscure Saints
We are called to honour Saints and imitate them (1 Cor 11:1). They serve as a holy example to lead our lives. All of their sayings and writings serve to inspire and help us to take the right path. This is because they fought the same battles as us. Many Saints were revered and honored… Continue reading

God’s Omnipresence
God does not stay away from his people forever. He looks after them and no one is away from his sight. If one lives in the depths of the Earth or the farthest limits of the sea, the Lord knows (Psalm 139:8,9). Nonetheless, he does not judge his people even if he knows everything. He… Continue reading

Prayer: Wrestle with God
God’s love towards those who fear him is very great (Psalm 103:11). He is with them like their shadow and won’t rest until he fulfils what he has promised them through his word (Isaiah 55:10). We should be like Jacob who wrestled with God and wouldn’t allow him to depart before the break of dawn,… 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.
