When we sincerely repent of our sins and weaknesses it is as if a trapdoor opens above our head, as Heaven's light shines in, to bring us peace, light and closer union with God.
God's gift to the sick is Jesus Christ Himself, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, One God - at work in this sacrament. The sick person has a renewed sharing in the life of the Holy Trinity, and so receives forgiveness, peace, spiritual joy, and other blessings, on being annointed.

The Saints in Heaven are well-placed to be able to turn to God and pray for us who still strive for holiness. The Saints are holier and more prayerful than even our kindest and most prayerful friends on earth; and we are wise if we ask for their help.
Some people, even though they have been saved, see clearly when they die how ill-prepared they are for Heaven, as if wearing filthy clothes - because they have neglected penance and prayer. They see all this in Heaven's light- yet they also see how merciful is God, Who invites them into Purgatory.

All the Holy Souls in Purgatory are needing prayer, especially those who are in the depths of Purgatory, and those who have no-one to pray for them.

At the 'heart' of the great fire of the Godhead stands the figure of Christ, like a second Adam. Christ stripped Himself of glory to descend to our sinful world: hence the Father's gift of an Immaculate Mother, to welcome Christ, and to be his 'home' in exile.
Jesus is a Divine Person. Glory is His nature. The glory shining out from Christ on the Mount of Transfiguration was the very glory which shone - to a lesser degree - on the face of Moses. God wants to share that glory with us, through the sacrament of Baptism.
It is right and necessary that we 'children of God' encourage others too to live in union with God through Baptism, and to persevere in love to the end. It is God's wish that when we are purified we enter Heaven as 'fire entering fire'. In God, there will be no more suffering or pain. Christ came down to earth, sharing our life, to offer us a share in His life.
Christ stands by us in Holy Communion, wrapping us in His cloak, as a man cloaks a friend in a storm, to hold His friend close and to give him protection, warmth and consolation.
