knowing that I can fully trust in the Lord God who knows everything that's going on and about me

***God Is Sweet***
The response from Psalm 119 today: How sweet to my taste is your promise! Do you know that the Lord God is not only loving, merciful, and gracious, he is also most sweet to our soul? As a matter of fact, everything about him—his love, his forgiveness, his words, his teaching, his guidance, his protection . . . his every act—is sweet!
***Serect to Freedom
The more you let God love you, the more you fall in love with him and the freer you become.
***Why Care About Jesus Dying?***
Tuesday today, again it's the day to pray the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary. These mysteries are more difficult for me to pray than all other ones simply because meditating upon the Passion of Christ is so poignant that it becomes unbearable easily. Why should God love me like this? I don't mind because deep down I know that I am a sinner who needs to be saved by him. Praise God!

***Letting Christ Touch Us
When we are sinful and Christ makes us clean again, we are overcome with joy. When we realize how much he loves us, we are moved to tears. These are watershed moments in the life of a Christian. The personal Lord is to be experienced! If you don't feel any joy, you can't be living an exciting spiritual life.
***Unbelievably Blessed Are We***
Although God is almighty and most exalted, he loves each of us to death. It's absolutely amazing that we should have such a personal Lord! Knowing this alone should lift us up with high spirits and make us feel elated every moment of our existence!
***Undeniable Endings for Us!***
We'll end up in union with or separation from God for all eternity. And that's how we'll also end up with anyone we love now. All the more we need to follow God's will to save as many souls as possible for both his and our sake.

*****Readiness for Receiving the Lord*****
Communion time thoughts. When we go forward to receive the Lord in the Holy Eucharist, we must be in a state of grace in order not to offend him. In fact, it should be as if we were going to receive our last judgment or final admission into heaven—it's that serious! (1 Corinthians 27: Whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord.)

***What Matters the Most***
It you do not know Christ yet, it would be that you are still alive. For if you'd died, it's likely that you would've been a lost soul forever. If you are already a Christian following the Lord faithfully, then nothing matters to you anymore.
*****We Are Full of Hope***
The Lord God can make us holy and live on forever!
The Lord God can make us holy and live on forever!
The Lord God can make us holy and live on forever!
***Church in End Times
Many of us are seeing what Mel Gibson sees. I believe the Lord will purify and restore his (and our) Holy Church fully in time.

**Ready for Resting in Christ Forever!
Communion experience. My soul is already resting in Christ and there's no more toiling on earth. So I am ready to go to him to rest in him forever.
***The Compelling Lord***
In today's Gospel reading from Matthew 16, Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it . . . the Son of Man will come with his angels in his Father’s glory, and then he will repay each according to his conduct." The Lord is speaking as God here. Again, he compels us to believe that he spoke the truth or didn't know what he's talking about—we are cornered!
***Ultimate Reality*****
We can continue sinning and living in a disordered world filled with turmoil or obey Christ and have peace in a world filled with people loving one another. So it all comes down to if we obey or rebel against our Lord God. This is the ultimate reality, and we need to deal with it!

***Great Spiritual Messages***
I have recommended the spiritual classic He and I by Gabrielle Bossis quite a few times on this blog, for the messages from Jesus to her show how much he yearns to be one with us. After reading them, I just't fell in love with the Lord even more! I gave a copy of thos book to a friend once who was suffering from terminal cancer and it completely cheered her up and changed her outlook. This book has garnered hundreds of 5-star reviews on Amazon, but unfortunately has become harder to obtain. (Note: Make sure you don't mistakenly buy the book with the same title by an Isabella Renee.) The following video lets you hear some samples of these beautiful messages.
