The Process of Dying: Dying is a sort of labour. Christ is waiting to welcome each of His faithful children who will enter Heaven after a time in the 'womb' of earthly life.

The Holy Soul who is ready for Heaven is met not only by Christ, but also by His holy Mother and all the Saints. They all lead that joyful soul up the flight of steps to the Father's throne, in great gladness.

As we struggle with serious problems, determined to remain faithful to Christ, He is very close, holding in His arms each beloved friend, as a life-guard holds up an exhausted swimmer.

The Father accepts our gifts of bread and wine, as if leaning from Heaven like a kind parent taking gifts from a child. The greatest gift we can offer is Christ Himself made Present when our gifts are changed into His Sacred Body and Blood.

Christ looks on with wonder at the doctor who has repented of the abortions he did, and who bravely speaks out about the sanctity of human life and its importance from the moment of conception.

If we realise the magnificence of Christ's love, and Christ's glory, in His Presence amongst us, we will be encouraged to act reverently in church, and to see that we are all sinners before Him.

We need to trust in Christ in all difficulties, and value His Will and His opinion above all. We allow His light to shine powerfully from our lives when we have removed all 'obstacles'.

Christ's love for each of us is never-ending and tender. Things go wrong in the spiritual life when people begin to hide themselves from Christ by sin or despondency.

From the glory of Heaven, God has made a bridge to earth, through Christ, so that all who believe in Him and are baptised can have a sure hope of reaching Heaven. He is the only bridge, open to all people.

There is only one way to Heaven - Christ Himself. By Baptism, each person enters the 'bridge', the safe way to Heaven. Some people who have not yet found the bridge, but who are making their way towards it, can be helped by God to reach Heaven, but there is no bridge but Christ.

Even if we try to serve God with wholehearted love, it can seem as if our spiritual life is lived in a 'tunnel' of interior darkness, until the moment of 'breakthrough' into the light, brought about by God.

Those who, for love of God, have endured spiritual darkness in patience are brought at last to 'fly' in prayer far above everyday concerns. No-one reaches such blissful contemplation except those who rise up through the grace of Christ. It cannot be achieved by merely human efforts.

Jesus Christ is true God, who took on our human nature, having the humility and goodness to come amongst us as a mere infant.

Our Lady shared Christ's anguish as did no-one else on earth. Their hearts beat as one, during His Passion. He experienced her sympathy and consoling thoughts in an extraordinary spiritual communion.

It is Christ Who has built the vehicle by which we can be carried away from the 'war-zone' of earthly life, to safety. He is the designer, and the pilot who will take us on a free flight, if we will trust in Him.
