Where there is Christ there can be no hatred or jealousy or anger
or bitterness. There can only be love, the love that unites not by clinging to
things for themselves, but by giving itself away, by suffering and death for the
sake of greater union.

God in Our Midst
The humility of God means that we do not have to strain our necks
looking upward or strive to climb the narrow ladder to heaven. Rather, God is
bent low in love.

Faith is nothing less than...
"Faith
is nothing less than being interiorly seized by God's restlessness, which
guides us along the pathways of life."

Forgiveness Is an Action
Forgiveness is something we do internally. It is a refusal to hate, resent or desire revenge. It is an act of the will, not a feeling. Once we understand God is not asking us to pardon someone when we forgive, we can work on forgiveness.

God Is Always With Us...
God is with us in the struggles and difficulties of life
to help us choose life,
to choose God,
even when we don't feel God with us.
