- God
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The great gift of Easter is hope - Christian hope which makes us have that confidence in God, in his ultimate triumph, and in his goodness and love, which nothing can shake.
- Experience

- Nov 07, 2020
Christ shared our experience; he suffered as we suffer; he died as we shall die, and for forty days in the desert he underwent the struggle between good and evil.
- Decision

- Nov 07, 2020
Moral choices do not depend on personal preference and private decision but on right reason and, I would add, divine order.
- First
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It is not because we are drawn to prayer that we first begin to pray; more often, we have to begin prayer, and then the taste and the desire for it come.
- Live
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When we are truly praying, then we can begin to see Christ in our neighbour; when we are really praying, we can begin to live for the Father.
- God

- Nov 07, 2020
In my opinion, it is a mistake to expect in prayer a response from God. Often, God's response is outside prayer. And often, we do not link up an outside response with the effort we put into prayer.
- Eyes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We are blind: we cannot see God with our senses, and our deductions from what we know or are thinking about the word of God itself - how little power they have to bring us to God! We are blind, and our eyes need the touch of our Lord's hand to enable us at times to even see dimly.
- Experience
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The experience of prayer when there is no awareness of God and no apparent response from ourselves should not lead us to escape from prayer or give it up.
- Experience
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Our response, our attitude, depends on our realisation of God's attitude toward us. If I experience love or have experienced it, this is the means whereby I can explore the mystery of God's love.
- Follow
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Let us remind ourselves that if we are to be our Lord's disciples, we must take up his Cross and follow him.
- Cross
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It is axiomatic that the Cross we get is the one we most dislike: we would choose any other. But it is equally true that the Cross which is ours is the one Christ wants us to bear.
- God
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What did our Lord do by his Passion, Death, and Resurrection? He bridged that gulf which exists between God and man, a gulf which can only be bridged by him.
- Pain
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Behind every crucifix stands our risen Lord. Hidden in every suffering and pain is the joy of closer union with him. His is the victory. He invites us to share it.
- God
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It is healthy to say, 'Yes, I am a sinner,' and to recognise that this should lead us to turn to God full of confidence in his love and mercy.
- Devil
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The devil took advantage of Christ's hunger to tempt him to limit his concern to the relief of human need. These are vital concerns, but they cannot be the sole concern of the Church. We need daily bread; we need, too, a reason for living, a sense of purpose, a vision.
