God sees, from Heaven, every thought, word and deed of ours. He looks at us with love, even when we sin; yet we need to ask ourselves: "Is this something that should be brought before him? Is it worthy of Heaven?"

The Lord explained that He delights in giving gifts to those who ask in faith for His help - and He is lavish in His response. This applies to beautiful weather and glorious skies as much spiritual requests.
We should be aware of the importance and value of popular devotions.
It is important to be attentive at Mass, aware that Jesus Christ our God loves us so much that He has suffered and died for us, allowing His own creatures to mock and torment Him, and never seeking revenge against us, but loving us until His last breath.
Truly, God has revealed what He is 'like': so loving and humble that He was willing to let His creatures mock and kill Him, rather than abandon His mission to save us from sin. And now, we can be present at Mass, where that same loving Saviour offers His Eternal Sacrifice.
Through being wholly united in love with the Holy Trinity, through doing God's Will and loving all those He loves, the soul is held like a child at God's heart in blissful prayer, in incomparable peace and security.

God's love never ceases towards us, as it never ceased towards our first parents on the occasion of the Original Sin. Yet they damaged their relationship with God, and needed reconciliation and healing.
A soul released from Purgatory soars like a rocket towards the distant 'sun', which is the radiance of Heaven. Each new saint approaches God in perfect humility.
The soul who is ready to enter Heaven, after Purgatory and not straight after death, kneels in awe before the Godhead, and waits for Christ and Our Lady to lead him to the Father's heart.
The Father reminded me of the importance of the prayer-card which I am completing: "Ready for Heaven?" God loves us all; but there is a desperate need for sinners to repent and change. Some Catholics are far from ready for Heaven. Many are not even fit for Purgatory.
The Lord is no more concerned by my distraction at Mass, when I'm tired and in pain, than if I were a sick child on her father's lap, at Mass. He is glad that I am present at Mass out of love for Jesus.
Christ is present whenever two or three are gathered in his name, even amongst Christians who have no wish at present to enter the Catholic Church.
Long ago, before the world was made, it was already in the Mind of God - and part of the 'Joy' of God - that He would one day be sacramentally, substantially Present on earth, with those who love Him, in the Mass, and in the tabernacle.
Truly, each priest can turn to Our Lady for help, confident that she has a special interest in his hopes, joys, fears and sorrows. She keeps very close to her Immaculate Heart all who are configured to her son.
