A message to Catholics. When your receive the Holy Eucharist, it is the Lord God, his body and blood, entering you to invite you to be one with him! He comes to you to be absorbed by you bodily and is ready and willing to be united with you spiritually also. Are you ready and willing to offer yourself to be in spiritual union with him? This is the missing link you need to provide if you truly love your Lord.

*Pure Joy
Communion experience. The Lord lets me know that he is always with me and that I've been chosen, called, and am now protected by him. Eternal happiness has also been prescribed for responding to his call. This is joy without worrying!
Weeping in Order
God our Father weeps for us when we sin against him because he loves and pities us. And if we ever feel sorry for the Father, we need to weep for ourselves too before we can rejoice.
For God Only
God cares about us and we should care about him only. Why only? That's because if we care about the Lord, we will automatically care about our brothers and sisters. In any case, live and die for God only.
**Life's Turning Point
God is light and he is always present. You can correctly say that darkness exists where light is absent from the physics point of view. Spiritually speaking, we are in darkness only because we have shut our eyes so that we might not see the light of God. This is self-imposed imprisonment. To see it, we must open our eyes, turn to the Lord and ask him to liberate us. We all need to reach such a point in life if we ever hope to be saved.
Good News About Sins
Jesus said that "his words will not pass away." I realize that our sins will not pass away either, for everything we do is known to God. This may be bad news for some, but the good news is that all our sins can be forgiven when we repent and be virtually forgotten by him.
***Pleasing the Father***
When a sinner turns to God and repents of his sins, the whole heaven rejoices. We can please God even more by offering ourselves as projects for him to work on. By letting him shape and mold us any way he wishes, we give him his greatest joy! And we too should rejoice that God, our Father, is happy with us, his children.

*Surrendering to Love
Communion experience. We all need to be loved by someone and have someone to love. I am completely happy because Jesus loves me and I love him. Today he made me see that surrendering to him is loving him. And that's all he asks of us.
God's Intended Journey for Us
The first step to God is to repent your sins. Press on to achieve union with him as best you can. Always go all the way to take advantage of God's great mercy. This is the purposeful and rewarding journey the Lord intends us to take.
*Your Way or God's Way
When you let go of your own ways and let God take over, you, who have been your own biggest obstacle, are now out of his way to liberate you. Since you no longer fight against the Lord, you become carefree and relaxed, knowing that you are on your way to your home in heaven. This is exactly the way God has wanted for you and for him.

Choosing Your Master
God gave us the free will, so he never forces us to do what we do not wish to do; he does not browbeat us. We are the ones who can choose to obey or disobey him freely. You could say that we are our own masters only in this fleeting life of ours. The wise would choose to follow the only eternal Master for now and forever.
*Commandment, Not Amendment
As the First Amendment of our Constitution guarantees our freedom of speech, that right also gets abused. In the name of free speech, people attack others unjustly, spread false rumors, or even defend what is immoral and ungodly. At the same time, this freedom also fosters our pride and we end up not willing to listen to anyone anymore – the don't-tell-me-what-to-do attitude. The bottom line is this: without God, no amendment we make can solve our problems; with God, we only need to follow his commandments and we'll have peace.
Reciprocating God's Love
Not a new message, but it still needs to be said. God has given all of himself to us, so it is time for us to given all of ourselves to him. To be lukewarm about it won't do. We must go all out, put in our best effort, and go to extremes to love him, for God can never be loved enough. And you can easily accomplish all this simply by surrendering yourself to God for him to make it happen!
Hypocrisy Widespread
Obvious to the common people today, many politicians, entertainers, celebrities, and the various news media display their blatant hypocrisy. They are motivated purely by hatred, pettiness, narrow-mindedness, self-centeredness, and huge egos. The total lack of humility has blinded them from seeing any true fact objectively. This is the result of not knowing God. I truly feel sorry for them, so I ask for your prayers for their souls.
*Forever for Us!
God exists forever. He shall love us forever and has planned for us to dwell with him in paradise forever. Who would want a god who can only take care of us temporarily? Trust and follow the Lord now and you'll be happy forever later. We are so made that we can be truly happy only when we can be happy forever.
***Being One With God!
Suppose that wherever you are, Christ is right there standing or sitting next to you, and wherever you go, he walks right next to you – you would feel so elated that you don't ever want to sin again. Receiving him in the Holy Eucharist is even better – he enters you to dwell within your heart! Nothing on earth can be more beautiful than becoming one in body and spirit with your loving creator, for he has raises your existence to the highest possible level!
