God the Father greets with delight the briefest whisper of prayer and the briefest moment of our time. In the life of union, He can lift us high in contemplation

As I prayed, in communion with Christ and His Mother, my little flame of prayer was part of the great flame, ascending.

The Great Flame of prayer.

The prayer of the Church, offered through Jesus, and with Mary, is like an umbilical cord that ascends to the Father and joins us to heaven.

Our one prayer-in-Christ ascends as far as Heaven; it is like an umbilical cord of Heavenly life and grace.

The more I treasure Christ's friendship and believe in His Gospel, the more frequently He supports me - by His power - at a great height, before the Father.

Our 'yes' to Christ's action (in our soul and in our life) opens a door for His work and His Will to be accomplished, lavishly, in His Church.

Through the Blood of Christ we are washed and clothed in a white garment, ready to approach the Father

The impatient soul (Christ showed me) builds a high tower, straining for light, instead of steadily following the low, narrow road.

We should trust in God's love from one day to the next. There are people who are not content to walk the safe, narrow way marked out by Jesus Christ for all who would follow Him to Heaven. Some people insist on making extraordinary efforts to try to see the way ahead, or foretell the future, or to find a different path to Heaven - as if trying to climb a ladder, to reach above the cloud which represents the limitations of our human existence and knowledge.

It is only by the power and will of Christ that we can escape distractions, to pierce Heaven in effortless prayers.

Christ showed me that while I hold onto Him, others hold onto me. How many persons rely on me, as I rely on Him!

"By His Holy and Glorious Wounds". At the Easter Vigil Mass, I offered the one truly perfect prayer: Christ's own prayer, at the altar.

From His feet, Christ's Precious Blood poured downwards to spread across the earth. Through that Blood, my sins have been forgiven.

I saw the soul 'expanding', the heart lifted high, above local and personal concerns, to embrace, also, a great number of other persons.

Our "living-by-faith" resembles the training of a gymnast; without practice, we shall not be calm, sure, unworried and hopeful.
