***Avoid Making This Mistake!*****
We usually start out resisting the God of Christ. But if you change your heart and decide to pursue him with persistence, the day will arrive when you find him to be totally irresistible. You now know that he and you do belong to each other and you can live happily with him ever after. This is no fairy tale ending, as there are tons of people who can testify this truth to you, and I am one of them. Resisting Christ has to be the worst mistake we can possibly make.
**Do Not Ruin Your Life
We are capable of doing good, but we are also prone to sin. Doing good usually requires some effort, while sinning is a lot easier, especially in today's world with so many temptations and so many people all doing it. The only way to safeguard our souls is to listen to the words of Jesus and act on them as he'd advised in Matthew 7. This would be like building your house on rock so that it will not collapse when the rain falls, the floods come, and the winds blow and buffet it. A faith firmly rooted in the Lord is our best protection. Again, I advocate attaining union thru the Holy Eucharist to achieve the goal. Always go all the way with the Lord—this is the best policy in my book.

*****Most Exciting Journey Ever!!!!!
I have traveled and seen various exciting parts of the world and gone on pilgrimages that brought me closer to God, but none of these journeys can even come close to the journey I am on now, that of seeking union with the Lord thru the Holy Eucharist. On this journey, my travel just consists of attending Mass, praying, and blogging, all done between the church and my home. Compared to all the other journeys, the encounter with the Lord is more private, more intimate, and filled with great joy. It's more exciting than anything else I've ever experienced, for the Lord truly touches my soul! Anyway, with the Lord, you just have to plunge right into him and let him carry you everywhere he wants you to go, and you'll discover that he is good, loving, most beautiful, most personal and understanding, and the most exciting person to know.
***Fulfilled and Content to the Hilt*
Communion experience. Receiving the Body and Blood of the Lord forms the most intimate bond with him that's most fulfilling and satisfying. I wouldn't switch places with anyone else under any circumstances. No wonder that the Eucharist is known as the Most Blessed Sacrament.
***To All Proabortionists:***
Today is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The Gospel reading from Luke 1 is about Mary, already pregnant with Jesus, visiting her cousin Elizabeth who was pregnant with John the Baptist six months earlier. Mary entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, "Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled." We see that the infant, still in the mother's womb, responded to the prompting of the Holy Spirit! How dare the proabortionists say that they have to right to terminate the life of any unborn child for whatever reason? Do they not also see that God wishes that the unborn remain in the mother's womb for nine months so that it receives all the nurturing it needs before birth?
By the way, I just remember that you can see the scene of Mary visiting Elizabeth in this video I posted on March 30, 2014. If you wish to watch it, just click here.
**See Reality Clearly
The sins of the world have muddied our vision. Think clearly and you'll see that God is in charge, is taking complete care of us who believe in and follow him, and will certainly lead them to final victory.
**On Liking and Disliking Myself*
I like myself, for l was wonderfully made by God. The part I dislike is my sinful nature, then Christ is taking complete care of that now. I only need to be patient for a little while longer before I become perfect in my Father's house.
*Joy Realized**
This is the joy that I can communicate with my Lord and God so easily at any time. I merely think what I have to say and he knows everything already. Our Father loves to hear from us and listens too.

*****Only Choice That Matters to Us*
The choices in life available for us to maker are infinite, but there is only one choice that's most fundamental, absolutely crucial, and of the utmost importance to us. This is choosing whether to believe in and follow Jesus as the Son of God and our Savior. Make your choice and nothing else matters anymore.
***God's Amazing Love
God's love for us is pure, unconditional, and steadfast. When we sin against the Lord, we sadden him and make him pity us even more, while his love for us remains undiminished. He has demonstrated the greatest love by laying down his own life for us. We can learn a lot from this love. Accepting it and we receive power to overtime all evil, are set free, and are made fit to enter heaven. Rejecting it and you miss out on experiencing a joy you can rejoice in forever.

*****Incredibly Amazing Fact*****
The Lord God is most lofty and mighty, yet we can attain intimate spiritual union with him through receiving the Holy Eucharist.
****Most Smart Living
God knows everything about us—our thoughts, our motivations, our intentions, even our subconscious mind. So let's live with this awareness and become perfect. That's right, I said perfect, for nothing is impossible for God. To give ourselves up to him has to be the smartest move we can possibly make. By the same token, to think that you can do anything without God's knowledge makes you instantly the biggest fool of all.
**Time to Decide and Act*
In our time, we can follow all the news and propagandas, what's going on around the world and happening in our own country, our own society, and read about what many others are saying on all the social media. What we learn may be interesting, but could be all fake, rumors or projections. Will all these things draw you close to God? On the other hand, you can pray a lot for all, read the scripture and other inspiring books, receive the Lord more often at Mass, and serve him with great diligence. Which of the two ways do you think is the better one to follow? Time is running out, so we need to decide and act before it's too late.

**Pristine Conscience a Must
The Lord God has given each of us a conscience. But living in this sinful world, our conscience can grow muddy or dull. Once you know the Lord or better yet, attain union with him, he clears up and sharpens your conscience so that you see what's right and what's wrong, what's clearly his will and what's not. To become holy and pleasing to God, a pristine conscience is necessary. And it'll make you feel good!
