God draws into His bliss after death those who can bear the brightness of glory, while those who are still consumed by shame wait below.

Within our souls, the divine life is like a torrent of deep water, full of life, light and power, channelled through our will, our consent.

However brightly-polished may be the 'window' of our souls, if we keep the shutter half-shut we shut out God, our light.

This is my present task, I learned: Like a child handing out pearls from a basket, unaware of their great worth, yet sharing their beauty.

Christ's glory is like a fire which lights up our sanctuary: with real faith, who could be distracted from such a sight?

The glory of Christ in the Mass is like a fire which lights up the sanctuary

Angels encircled the sanctuary, praying beneath the light of Heaven.

Christ in His Incarnation gave true homage to the Father from earth: He continues to pour His light, through His Church.

Through our sacrifices, united to Christ's, a channel is made whereby Heaven's light can pour down upon the needy.

How much the departed souls are in need of our prayers. Some are closer to the light; others are suspended over the depths.

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

Into the light of Heaven enter Holy Souls who have been purified. They enter without pain; there is no sin in them any longer.

Through fervent prayer we allow the light of Christ to shine into our lives

Christ showed me how few say 'welcome' with any truth. How few, in Communion, reveal their hearts to Him.

A soul may greet Christ, in Holy Communion, by saying: "Cast your light within, and enter (with your outpouring of grace)".

By Baptism, the soul becomes a furnace of Divine Love, as the Indwelling Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - shines out Glory from that soul upon others. It's as if the entire person is irradiated with light, all sin banished. This is a 'child of God', whatever age this person is; adopted by God and ready for Heaven.

Our personal prayers and devotions, such as the Rosary, unite us to Heaven, and delight our Guardian Angel
