God’s Visitations
God is present with his holy people all the time. He guides them day and night(Exodus 13:21). His Saints were such as these. Miracles and visitations were an usual thing for them. St Gerard Majella was asked by someone known to him about his whereabouts since he was not seen for a long time. He… Continue reading

God’s Call
Each and every person is unique. But, together we are one(Romans 12:4,5). We are fearfully and wonderfully made(Psalm 139:14) and called to different vocations or purposes in Christ. He calls us to these vocations in a unique way. St Teresa of Kolkata was called by Jesus to found the Missionaries of Charity in a special… Continue reading

Serving God
Those who serve God lack no good thing. Contrary to the situation in this world, even majestic young lions suffer and hunger(Psalm 34:10). More so, those who serve and proclaim the gospel are asked to carry nothing with them on the journey to these places- not even money with an extra pair of clothes(Luke 9:3).… Continue reading

God and Parents
Jesus Obeyed His parents though they were earthly ones(Luke 2:51). He did this because it pleased His heavenly Father. He instituted families so as to establish love. Those who obey their parents have long life in the land(Ephesians 6:1-3). The mother of St Kuriakose Chavara brought him up in very godly ways. Because of her… Continue reading

God and Forgiveness
Jesus asks us to forgive anyone who has wronged us. We should not carry grudges against one another. He, Himself, set us an example by forgiving those who insulted and put Him on the Cross(Luke 23:24). The Saints too exhibited this behaviour. One of them is St Maria Goretti who forgave her killer. When on… Continue reading

God is King
God is a king. He is the King of kings. Our God rules over all the world. We are his subjects. It is no wonder that he expects us to do his will. There is a majestic throne for him in heaven (Ezk 1:4-28). He has a court and courtiers with praise offered continually (Rev… Continue reading

Mother Mary, the Ark
Mother Mary is the Ark of the Covenant. The old Ark was never found. It was carried all along the Israelites’ journeys and many battles. The same way Mother Mary leads us and God protects us through her. She is chosen for this blessing. All the Saints were guided by her voice when they were… Continue reading

God’s Providence
God can do the impossible in his faithful’s lives. He knows each and everyone’s heart and supplies their needs from His Providence(Philippians 4:19). All that a person has to do is to trust in Him as a father and give themselves to Him totally. The miracles in all His Saints’ life are too many to… Continue reading

Suffering for God
Not all who are struck with disaster are sinners(Luke 13:4). God allows suffering in the lives of his faithful too. He prunes them so that they produce more fruit(John 15:1,2). Suffering is for everyone and in the plan of God (Romans 5:3-5). Jesus suffered too. For Him it was a form of baptism. Job proved… Continue reading

God, The Father
God the Father is very loving. He sent his only begotten son to die on the cross for our sins so that we may be saved(John 3:16). He has a thunderous voice(John 12:28,29) and is made of embers or burning fire. He even saw to it that the Israelites journey of 40 years towards Canaan… 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. Adding sheen to this journey, I have published three books: two in the Catholic spirituality genre and another in self help; it is good to explore different genres. I reside with my immediate family in Bangalore and hope to share wisdom as such with everyone.
