The Saints of Heaven rejoice in our love for Christ, and in our good actions, because all joy in Heaven is shared.
When Christ was present in the Blessed Sacrament, the sanctuary and my soul were ablaze with divine fire and glory.
We have a choice: to climb the mountain of holiness before we die, and go through the 'curtain' at death straight to Heaven, by God's grace; or to make great efforts, or half-hearted efforts, then finish the ascent in Purgatory; or we can choose to give up the climb, and to fall away, and to abandon the hope of reaching Heaven after death.
In the spiritual life, all who cease climbing, and choose to stay where they are, still have to complete the climb after death, if they would enter Heaven.

Are we in a 'State of Grace' or not? It is important that we admit and avoid serious sin. Unless we repent and are reconciled we are fit neither for Holy Communion nor for Heaven.

From the tabernacle, Christ looks on in sadness, as He sees His holy 'house of prayer' treated as a market-place.

Through the Blood of Jesus: When we pray for someone 'in the name of Jesus' or 'through the Blood of Jesus', it's as if fire descends from Heaven, as God's grace is poured upon the needy person.

In God's sight, little babies who die - before birth or after; of natural causes or abortion - are like shooting stars which flare briefly and then fall from the sky. These lives sparkled briefly before tumbling into God's care, as if into a father's arms; yet much prayer is necessary, to halt the evil of abortion by which some people do a grave wrong to the babies, and to their own souls.
