It is a cause for sadness, that many people never pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory - amongst whom might be their own friends and relations. It is not a light matter, either, that many do not themselves believe that they might need purification after death; it's as if they imagine they will all be perfect, ready for Heaven!

He had been transformed by his Holy Communion and by the prayer of a friend. On his forehead shone a new gem, which radiated an extraordinary light: sign of a particular virtue.

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'.

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.

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.

If we picture the earth, and the 'ladder' to Heaven, as if from the heights of Heaven, we can see that earthly life was very short, and our sufferings very brief, in the Light of Eternity.

Husbands and wives who use contraception and so deliberately 'shut the door' to the gift of children, are also 'shutting the door' to God's light and graces, by their disobedience to His laws and to His plans for their marriage.

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 is so 'other' that we cannot understand all about Him. In His patience He 'waits' century by century as stalactites form. In His delight in creation He makes little creatures like a caterpillar.

We can meet Christ at the tabernacle. It is as though the light of Heaven shines behind Him, as He listens to us, and pours out His graces upon us.

Until we find the narrow Way which leads straight to Heaven, it's as if we are wandering around on an unknown road, in a cloudy area, in darkness. Then we see the light, and the safe way ahead.

When someone is suddenly enlightened by God, it is as if an undersea earthquake takes place. The 'shock' of a new illumination in someone's soul brings great changes in the 'landscape' of his life.
