I've seen people spending a lot of time to find the perfect spot for their own burial. They also have all the funeral expenses prepared in order not to burden their children. Notting wrong here, except that they don't seem to be concerned about God and life after death at all. Are they or am I being foolish?

*****Time Is LATE (a Warning)***
We don't know when Jesus' Second Coming will happen. For that, time may not be too late. But remember that we'll be judged by the Lord right after we die. In that case, if we haven't loved the Lord, our God, with all out heart, with all our soul, and with all our mind yet, time is late for us. The godlessness of the world is worse than you think—we're already tolerating or accepting many evils or sins—we're in danger of losing our souls! End times are here and God's chastisement impending. It's time that that we wake up, turn to God wholeheartedly, remain vigilant, and be ready. Being lazy or sloppy just won't cut it.
***Jesus Is Unique***
More about Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel. He's becoming increasingly popular, drawing more and more people to Jesus. He is powerful because he preaches Christ. His messages are like beacons of light shining in today's darkness, waking people up to see the truth again. Praise God!
***Beneficial to the Soul
Communion experience. Receiving the body and blood of the Lord is one great humbling experience that's most beneficial to the soul.
**Bread of Life Satisfies
In today's Gospel reading from John 6, Jesus said to the crowd, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst." I can testify to you that as a believing Christian, receiving the Lord in the Holy Eucharist has completely satisfied my hunger and thirst.
***Logical Consequences
It's clear that humility leads to holiness, while pride, to sinfulness. A humble person can forgive all others, including his enemies, thus he has peace. Whereas a person full of pride sees everyone as an enemy in his way, thus he is always in turmoil.

***Address to Muslims with Love***
Because of the attack on Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel, I am posting another video. This is the kind of preaching from the heart we need to hear, especially at times like ours. God bless him!
**Pray for Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel*
Today I learned that Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was attacked by a Muslim assailant during a Mass service at Christ the Good Shepherd Church in Sydney, Australia. Please pray for him and Australia. Here's is just one of the many videos you can find on YouTube now. I picked this one because it reports the incident from a somewhat different perspective.
After I posted the above video, I came across this one. It's shorter and complements the first one. You might even want to watch it first.
**Meaningful & Precious Faith*
As a firm believer in Christ now, I can say that the Lord has never put the slightest pressure on me; he totally respected my free will. After I chose to believe in him, there were zero regrets, only peace and joy. This has made my faith most meaningful and precious.
**Faith Categories
We need to believe in the God of Christ if we ever want to be saved from sin. At one extreme are those who reject or attack Christ—they are the biggest fools of all. In the middle are those who realize and accept Christ at some point in their life; they will be saved. Most blessed are those who believe from an early age with an unwavering faith; they will surely be honored in heaven.

**Have a Heart
Think about what Christ has gone through to save you, then you'll realize how precious you are to him. Be grateful and rejoice!
*****THE DIRECT WAY*****
Here's a pressing message, what this blog is all about. The Lord wants me to let the whole world know that he desires we all seek union with him through the Holy Eucharist. It should be clear that he so desires because he loves us. Of course, to attain union with God, the proper way to get started is to go directly to him to surrender ourselves to him. Unfortunately, most of us who want to know and love God more go about doing it indirectly. We read and listen to a lot of messages from others; what we end up learning is a bunch of rules to follow. If you put them altogether, I am sure the number would stagger us, making it impossible to follow all of them. The direct way is to go straight to Christ, opening yourself up to and sharing everything with him until you know him so well that you fall in love with him. Now you automatically love the Lord with no need to follow any rules. In general, don't waste time trying to change yourself, but simply let God do it for you.
***Christ Our Only Savioir*****
No matter how deep is the pit you are in, turn to Jesus humbly to ask him for help and he'll deliver you on the spot. For misery, depression, fear, and loss of inner peace are all caused by our sins, and Jesus, being our loving Lord and Savior, is exactly the one, in fact the only one, who can free you from your sins. The happiest person is the one who has been forgiven by Christ, made clean, and is now heaven bound!
****Know Love and We're Home****
When we fall in love with Christ, we finally comprehend God's love, and we are back in our Father's house!

***Mosi Personal and Intimate Experience
Communion experience. The almighty holy Lord entered me, it's the most personal and intimate experience of my life!
****Most Wise and Profitable Move****
In our life on earth, we don't have full control of our physical or mental health. We can get sick at any time and lose our memories as we age. But the best news for us is that on earth we can totally fix our spiritual health for all eternity! Of course, I am talking about believing in Jesus to have him take full care of us spiritually. This is a most wise and profitable move we can and should make now.
***Simple Truth***
Today's entrance antiphon: O chosen people, proclaim the mighty works of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light, alleluia. I see clearly that I was in darkness before I found Christ, but today I am basking in his wonderful light. Without Christ, we are just lost; with him, eternal life is assured. It doesn't get any simpler.
