Christ our God was truly at work in the Creation of the Universe, with the Father and the Holy Spirit. At every moment Christ is all-knowing, everywhere present, all-loving and all-holy. We live in His love.
Whenever the Holy Sacrifice is offered from our altar, Christ Who is Present in sacramental form is praising the Father in the fiery love of the Holy Spirit. Christ is here, praying to the Father on our behalf.

A person who shares God's very life, through Baptism, and lives in a state of grace, can be certain that when she prays to the Father in Christ's name, in the Spirit, He hears and answers. How can He fail to hear the prayer of His own Son? In sharing the life of the Divine Persons, we share in Their loving responses to one another in the Godhead: hence our prayers are granted.

It is when a person becomes really alive in the Spirit, perhaps long after initial conversion, that he or she can 'see' Christ clearly, if Christ Wills - whether by genuine visions or by 'unknowing' knowledge and 'unseeing' sight. Christ is no longer hidden behind the 'veils' of a person's self-concern.
Sincere praise, offered through Jesus, in the Spirit, to the Father of light, flies swiftly to the 'heart' of Heaven, as when an arrow pierces a cloud. Our prayers are worthwhile and effective.
God's gift to the sick is Jesus Christ Himself, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, One God - at work in this sacrament. The sick person has a renewed sharing in the life of the Holy Trinity, and so receives forgiveness, peace, spiritual joy, and other blessings, on being annointed.

The light of the Holy Spirit shines in the soul of someone who prays in Jesus' name; and those earnest prayers are heard in Heaven. It took decades of prayer before Communism fell in Russia. We must not lose hope that, with persevering prayer, the evil of abortion can be overcome.
In a picture of the Court of Heaven, where God the Father reigns in glory, Our Blessed Lady is placed on the steps which lead to the Father's throne. There, she is honoured, as Christ offers His Eternal Sacrifice to the Father, in the Spirit, and also honours the Saints.
By it's very nature, love is fruitful and generous; and so the Lord invites all married people to understand that the moral teachings of the Church are true. Whoever uses contraception, even in difficult circumstances, is acting against God's wishes, and no longer shines with the radiance that comes from the Holy Spirit.
Christ's Holy Mother Mary deserved to be honoured; and there should be visible reminders for us, in our churches, that she who is in Heaven now, praying for us, is God the Father's holy daughter, the Spirit's faithful spouse, the Son's holy and loveable Mother, and our mother too.
As I pray to the Father, in Jesus' name, in the Spirit, asking for help for someone in need, I can be certain that Jesus too prays for that praiseworthy intention, with His whole attention, and His Spirit's love and power.
It is the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Love, Who carries souls to Heaven when we die. A person who hates others is plainly not full of the Holy Spirit; and if he dies in that state, he will not be able to rise up to Eternal Life.

Whenever we pray in the name of Jesus, even in darkness or loneliness, we share in the life of the whole company of Heaven.
It is Christ Who - with the Father and the Holy Spirit - holds me in existence, as He holds the entire world in existence; and therefore I am close to Him through the very fact of my existence as well as being united with Him by Baptism and the gift of His Spirit.
By the Holy Spirit, Christ is present in the baptised person's soul, shining out His love and wisdom, irradiating the soul with Divine joy and goodness.
