None of us can pull ourselves out of the grave. But Jesus could. And so we put our faith in Him. Fear of death is normal. With human eyes we can only see a life ended.
Wit & Wisdom
Ruling the heart
The struggle for power and domination has gone on for centuries, but women save the world by ruling the heart. And in so doing, they will save the world.
Kindness over violence
Chaos and violence are the marks of darkness. Compassion and care are the marks of love.
Celebrate God, every day
Every day we can celebrate the God who comes to us in others, and in the events of life.
Brighten the tangled night
We Christians believe that God has entered into this world of fear.
Confined? Look within
We can spend our days being aware of God within us and praying for those around us.
Practice forgiveness, extend mercy
Practice living each moment with the power of God. And in so doing, you and I are constantly becoming the very love of God himself.
How to ‘steal’ heaven
Like the Good Thief, you and I can “steal” heaven. It involves returning to the practice of our faith, going to church, receiving the sacraments, reading Scripture, and talking to God throughout the day in formal or informal prayers.
A lesson from nature
Jesus came to tell us that love, not violence, is the answer. For his efforts, he was crucified by the people of his day. Violence if often our reaction. But violence is never the answer. Love really is the only answer.
Pieces in the puzzle
There are no unimportant people in the world. We are all important to God and to life.
Invisible powers
Over the centuries, we humans have survived plagues and famines and natural disasters. I don’t pretend to know why God allows them, but I do know that as a human race we survive them.
Belief and life
We do not live in a morally neutral universe. Good and evil, life and death, do contend with each other.
