Scripture alone? Holy Scripture is a gift from God. How strange it would be to receive this Word, when it is 'delivered' to us, without acknowledging the Church that wrote it and handed it on - and her Tradition, her Eucharist, her teachers, saints and symbols.
Jesus our God and Saviour prays with us and for us at every Mass, no matter what 'clouds' of sadness or turmoil seem to fill our lives. We can rely on His prayer to the Father on our behalf, in the love of the Spirit.

If we pray with faith, with the honesty and trust of a child, God always reaches down to us, even if we do not feel His presence

Just as Our Blessed Lady persevered in hope, in the worst of all times, when her beloved son was dead, so must we all persevere in trust in God, even when our lives seem to be heading for disaster.
Christ wants us to know that we never suffer alone. He knows and sees our every pain and heartache. He invites us to bring everything to Him in prayer, and to find rest in His presence.
Christ and all the saints rejoice with us at special occasions, for example, when we celebrate a birthday.
Everyone alive is loved by Christ our God. Yet when we are reconciled to Him through sacramental confession, and renewed in love and joy, we are wrapped in His love as His own brothers or sisters or children.

Everything we think, do and say in our earthly lives can be 'seen' by God. He created us from love, yet He sees all our vices as well as our virtues. He wants us to know that we should keep in mind that we shall all be judged on our behaviour.
God sees, from Heaven, every thought, word and deed of ours. He looks at us with love, even when we sin; yet we need to ask ourselves: "Is this something that should be brought before him? Is it worthy of Heaven?"

The Lord explained that He delights in giving gifts to those who ask in faith for His help - and He is lavish in His response. This applies to beautiful weather and glorious skies as much spiritual requests.
It is important to be attentive at Mass, aware that Jesus Christ our God loves us so much that He has suffered and died for us, allowing His own creatures to mock and torment Him, and never seeking revenge against us, but loving us until His last breath.
Truly, God has revealed what He is 'like': so loving and humble that He was willing to let His creatures mock and kill Him, rather than abandon His mission to save us from sin. And now, we can be present at Mass, where that same loving Saviour offers His Eternal Sacrifice.
Through being wholly united in love with the Holy Trinity, through doing God's Will and loving all those He loves, the soul is held like a child at God's heart in blissful prayer, in incomparable peace and security.

Held in the love of the Three Divine Persons, we can intercede for others. A person who loves God brings close to God all the people she carries in her heart.
