Jesus Christ comes to us in Holy Communion when we are sick or housebound

Christ does not leave us alone in our sickness and troubles, but comes to us in His sacrament, accompanied by Angels.

Nothing can be deemed worthy of the Father, nor can ascend to Him, which is not extended through Christ and His pleadings.

It can seem as if Heaven and its Saints are hundreds of miles away from Earth. They are very close to us.

Our Blessed Lady is far above us in grace and holiness, but we must not be afraid to approach Her.

Christ leads us at every stage of the spiritual life

Every little confident prayer enables Christ to lead us further up the Holy Mountain. But he does not draw us without our consent.

The Father allowed His Son to suffer the effects of sin for the sake of our salvation
