People have many ideas about God, but only Jesus - like a window onto Heaven - gives us direct access to God the Father

We are right to unite ourselves with Christ's self-offering in the Mass, but we give God the Father further glory if we pause in private prayer, throughout the day, to renew our self-offering. In that way we honour God and draw grace upon ourselves and the Church, and we can be certain that Christ is with us at every step of the way.

There is a place not far from Heaven, called Purgatory, where people arrive to prepare for Heaven. It is as if they finally take off their dirty rags, and are re-clothed like royalty; then they process to their seats, wearing crowns, to join the Saints above - through the love and mercy of God Who rewards all who die in a state of grace.

Christ reaches out to embrace us in just the manner shown out in many Christian images.

Jesus Christ is revealed to us through His holy Word, whenever we read the Scriptures or hear them proclaimed at Mass. Through Him we come to know the Father.

Christ is Really Present at the Consecration, here before us in glory: the same Divine glory which He had revealed to His special friends at the Transfiguration, on the mountain, in His earthly lifetime.

Christ's Precious Blood once poured from His Body on the Cross; and that Sacrifice is re-presented in the Mass today, in a sacramental manner, as we pray for our sins to be forgiven.

The angels 'guard' the Lord, Who is present in the Tabernacle in the Blessed Sacrament.

In Westminster Cathedral, and in every Catholic church, the Sacrifice of Calvary is re-presented for our salvation at the Mass

A person trapped in sin is like a prisoner in a cage, with the key on the inside. We must speak with pity to him - yet also encourage such a person to set himself free, with the help of God, by giving up his sins.

When people chatter needlessly in church, their Guardian Angels still pray to Jesus, and honour Him by their reverent silence.

As we enter the church, Christ greets us from the tabernacle. He delights especially when we love and honour His Mother on her feast days.

Though it is right that we travel to Lourdes to pray in the Grotto, and to other shrines, Christ invites us to make a 'grotto' of our own heart, where we can meet Our Lady and confide in her, who is at all times close to God Who dwells within us.

Our Father in Heaven looks with delight upon everyone who speaks with others about His Son, Jesus, and Jesus' Holy Mother Mary. We are right to share our faith with joy, glorifying God and helping other people.

It is important that when we pray for other people, we pray with confidence and hope. God has foreseen everything that will ever happen. He has already taken account of our prayers, in His plans for souls, and our world. We should trust that when we ask, He helps.

Whenever we pray in the name of Jesus, even in darkness or loneliness, we share in the life of the whole company of Heaven.
