Christ sees how difficult it can be, to find good catechesis for an enquirer, at a time when many dissenters in the Church offer their own versions of the Catholic Faith.

These are at the heart of the true Faith.

When a soul gives up its personal ambitions, for the love of Christ, Christ gives to it the robe it will wear as it walks towards the Father.
The soul which loves Christ draws along others on its train, as it pursues its task, in the baptismal priesthood of all who love and obey Christ.
It is a cause for joy - and a privilege - to be able to walk along the path which Jesus took, hand-in-hand with our Risen Lord.
Every frank confession of real weakness causes more grace to flow through us, like water from a pool when obstacles are removed.
It is the fire of Divine Glory that burns away all imperfection. Then there remains only what is true, eternal, pure and strong.
Christ comes out from the heart of the Father, out to reach us who are so far from God. He draws us into the Divine Embrace.
