Christ is delighted if someone loves to receive Him in the Blessed Sacrament, loves to visit Him at the Tabernacle, loves to do His Will, and loves to tell others the good news about Him.
Christ showed me that all those people in the hundred-year-old newsreel are now dead, and are in Heaven or Hell or Purgatory. How many were aware that their behaviour had eternal consequences? And each of us alive today will end our lives with a meeting with almighty God.
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.

When a new saint arrives in Heaven, the whole company greets that soul, with Christ and his mother Mary. Then the new arrival is led through the throng - like a Queen at a garden party - to meet many old friends and companions, and many Saints who have been an inspiration and example.
Christians should pray frequently, asking God for a renewal of Christian faith in many hearts and many countries.

Jesus was made refreshed and joyful by sitting with His friends in Bethany, in a welcome silence. He knew He was loved, and though He was full of compassion for needy people He was glad to retire for a while from the noise and bustle of the crowds.
People throughout the world need to hear the amazing news about Jesus Christ, and the whole plan of salvation. God came down to earth from Heaven: that is the single most important thing for people to know. He came, therefore He loves us. He spoke, therefore we should listen and obey.
To commit grievous sin is like climbing down towards Hell, where the suffering of unrepentant sinners is so great that it can be pictured as 'fire', in which the demons wait for new victims to torment.
Bishops and priests should wake up each day burning with desire to spread the Catholic Faith, actively thinking of new ways to explain and spread it.
Only by the power poured down from Heaven to faithful souls, and through the work done by them to spread the Good News and to make reparation for sin, can the violence and slaughter in the world be overcome, as Heaven rejoices in every success in the war against violence and evil.
The Lord showed me that Heaven is like a circular area full of Divine glory, occupied by the Three Divine Persons and the Angels and Saints. Christ and His holy Mother want to greet new arrivals, which is why each of us needs to ask himself: "Am I ready to enter?"
We are right to unite ourselves with Christ's self-offering in the Mass, but we give God the Father further glory if we pause in private prayer, throughout the day, to renew our self-offering. In that way we honour God and draw grace upon ourselves and the Church, and we can be certain that Christ is with us at every step of the way.
Everyone alive is loved by Christ our God. Yet when we are reconciled to Him through sacramental confession, and renewed in love and joy, we are wrapped in His love as His own brothers or sisters or children.

A soul released from Purgatory soars like a rocket towards the distant 'sun', which is the radiance of Heaven. Each new saint approaches God in perfect humility.
Christ looks on with joy when we celebrate life or good news by sharing food and drink with friends, at a party, in genuine mutual delight, with a desire to give joy and to comfort tired hearts. Heaven is a little like that.
