In today's reading 1 from Acts 10, the gift of the Holy Spirit poured out on the Gentiles while Peter was still speaking to them about God's impartiality. When the Holy Spirit falls upon you, he touches your soul, making you feel your own soul too. This direct connection with God enables you to see that you were indeed made by him, a most memorable and refreshing experience.

Foolish Living
We'll face Christ after we die or at his Second Coming if that happens before we die. Either way, it won't be long. Therefore, extremely foolish is the person who plans and lives his life as if he will never die.
Grateful to God
I am most grateful to God for having revealed so clearly his great love for us and his plan of salvation to us so that we might have eternal life in him through his Son. This has made all the difference to my existence like night and day! It has to be one of the greatest blessings.

*Jesus Most Compelling
Communion experience. Jesus entered me through the Holy Eucharist and was 100% willing and ready to be one with me. How could I possibly not be 100% willing and ready to be one with him? Such is the power of love!

Preparing for Meeting God
Communion experience. We shall all meet God one day. Achieving union with God smoothes out our journey the rest of the way, removing all obstacles. Otherwise, we might have a rougher time ahead.
*Christians Know God!
Today is the Feast of Saints Philip and James, Apostles. In the Gospel reading from John 14, Jesus said to Thomas, "If you know me, you will also know my Father. Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?" We all remember the time we saw a celebrity or someone special. My wife recalls spotting President Reagan in the distance once, after he had landed at the airport in Washington, D. C. I personally saw Linus Pauling, the Nobel Prize winner in chemistry and peace, also at an airport as we both lined up to board the same plane. These chance sightings we remember. Now, devout Christians know Christ well, who is no ordinary celebrity, but God himself! This is certainly something we can truly feel good and rejoice about!
No Longer Bewildered
Once you know Christ, all the puzzle pieces of life fall into place, for you find the truth in him. No longer are you lost.
What God Does to Our Soul
Entrust our soul to God and he'll purify it, heal it, and protect it from all evil.
