Saints and Marriage
A frequent question posed to Saints was about marriage. Owing to their chaste nature people used to baby them and at the marriageable age were confused of their state of being unmarried.

A Compassionate God
God is compassionate. He walked among us 2000 years ago. He healed the sick, delivered people from bondages and blessed everyone. Jesus is the same even today (Hebrews 13:8).

Testament: Old And New
People in the old testament times failed to understand the nature of God. They thought of him to be an angry and terrible(Deut 5:23-25) God who doesn’t forgive iniquities easily.

Prayer Averts Destruction
God hears the prayers of the righteous and gives answers very fast. The prayer of a righteous man avails much(James 5:16). As he is a good father, God won’t refuse his good children. St Faustina Kowalska was praying for her country, Poland. God was about to unleash a great calamity on some undisclosed region. His… Continue reading
