What do you do after Easter Sunday? We are invited to be overwhelmed with paschal joy during the Easter season. Still, instead, we usually resolve our daily grind like everything isn’t transformed by our encounter with the risen Lord. So many of us return to our normal ways shortly after the resurrection—we can sometimes take comfort in that…
Book recommendation for all of you, “The Great Divorce” by C.S. Lewis. If you still need to read it, do it now. This incredible book talks about heaven and talks about knowing the Lord.

Proverbs 15:30 says, A cheerful glance brings joy to the heart. Good news invigorates the bones. If you smile at somebody, the person tends to smile back. At that moment, you see like joy coming out of you. It relieves the stress. It’s like medicine. It cures many things within. Try to put on that face of smiling and impact on people’s life…
Matthew 25:40 says I lost it. I hope that 40 was on the next page. “And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these, my brethren, you did it to me.'” If President Biden or Pope Francis comes here and wants a cup of water, everybody will run scatter-skelter, falling on each other to provide them…

Jesus Christ, our Lord, and God causes peace, tranquility, love, union, and greater faith. In our gospel today, Jesus says, “The thief has come to steal and kill and destroy…
“How is Jesus calling you to serve the poor?” This is the question we’ll attempt to answer in this episode. Jesus loved the poor; like Him, we are called to be a lifeline for needy people. God sees the poor, but we are called to intercede on their behalf—to be somebody who can bring them to Him. This episode talks about the importance, necessity…
This has got bad news written all over it. If you have ever seen “Chernobyl,” “Godzilla,” or “The Simpsons,” you know that radiation is silent. You don’t feel anything, and it can change you. Similarly, adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is just like that, only it gives you life and doesn’t kill you. When we go to adoration, it is silent. We don’t feel anything, but it is super…
Love never fails. Faith may come to an end when we see God face to face. Hope can end because what we’re hoping for has been fulfilled by then. But love never ends. Love never fails because in heaven, what will we do with God and all the angels and all the saints? Enjoy that relationship of love. You can see that there is joy and happiness…
We must understand that we are going through different journeys, and God is doing something completely different in each of our lives, and we must be attentive to that.
