When you accept God's love for you, you become a humble, selfless person. Let's not overlook this fact. It is a beautiful happening, as wonderful as a miracle.

**How God Makes You Beautiful
Communion experience. He first heals your soul. Then he transforms you to become like him. Now you are beautiful.
**Supporting Jesus
Today is the Feast of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary. It's worth noting that Mary supported Jesus as her Son and Lord, and we support him as our Lord. So spiritually, we can be as close to Christ as Mary is. Something to rejoice about.
***Holy Beggar
This is one who trusts in the Lord fully and begs for his mercy and blessings on himself and the whole world. This is someone to look up to.
****Amazing Intimate Relationship****
I'd like to emphasize again that we need to be wide open to the Lord God. This means that we be 100% honest with him, sharing everything with him, our joys, our sorrows, our wishes and desires, even our doubts, complaints, hangups, secrets we wouldn't share with another human being . . . all kinds of problems. Believe me, if you can be this open with God, you'll develop an amazing, most intimate and life-changing relationship with the Lord God!
**Power of Prayer*
Know that every good prayer said straight from your heart blesses and sanctifies you! So pray unceasingly for God's great glory.
***Matter of Faith***
If you are not happy about yourself, let God remake you! If you don't believe that he can make you happy, then you'll remain unhappy. On the other hand, if you believe that he can make you perfect and happy, then nothing will be able to stop that from happening! You see, it all depends upon whether you believe in him or not.
***See All the Good Things
The world is in a mess caused by sins, but think of all the good things God has done and still does for us! The list is endlessly long. He sustains us so that we remain alive. He gives us so many things in the world to enjoy. He is ever ready to hear our troubles and offer his help, and to console us when we are sorrowful. He heals us when we are wounded internally and turn to him. His love for us in boundless. And he has paved the way for us to get to heaven. This last alone is enough for us to rejoice and become carefree!

**Persecutions Leading to Eternal Life
In today's Gospel reading from Mark 10, Jesus said to Peter, "Amen, I say to you, there is no one who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands for my sake and for the sake of the Gospel who will not receive a hundred times more now in this present age: houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and eternal life in the age to come." Give up everything for Jesus' sake and we'll receive a lot more with persecutions, and finally eternal life. Suffering for Christ for a little while longer now is definitely worth it, for we shall soon be rewarded with living happily forever!

**What's Truly Meaningful and Satisfying
I probably could show my talent in some way and earn some oohs and aahs from some people. But that would only puff up my ego—no real joy here. Making a lot of money or becoming famous can never make us truly happy either. Doing God's will in secret is the only thing that's both meaning and satisfying to the soul. Of course, God's will is to save all of us from sin so that we may get into heaven. So this is what we should aim for: spreading the good news to catch others for the Lord.
