God is at work even when we are physically frail - He can slowly 'detach' us from life, as a backing fabric is slowly removed from a piece of tape, to prepare us for Heaven.
Christ, the truth, is shining out towards each soul. A pure soul, like a crystal, receives many virtues. A dark and sinful soul is not penetrated by Christ's light, but is like a rock.
A generous soul is willing to allow God to work through that soul's intercessions. By prayer, that soul harms no-one, but, rather, opens a 'floor' to rain down good things upon the entire world, in contrast to those who 'rain down' bombs.
By every honest confession, and every new admission of sin and failure, we remove the veils which hide God's glory.
Christ is the doorway through which we can touch God, and repentance is the 'doorway' which opens our own soul.
As we offer our sins to God, in repentance, He accepts them as a gift, as when a mother accepts a pebble from a child as a jewel.

It is essential that we put Christ at the centre of our lives. If we do not pray, do not listen to the Church, and do not obey God's laws as taught by the Church, we shall not be prepared for Heaven when the time comes to die.
One who prays in Christ's name is like a child who is held close by her heavenly Father, who allows her to move His arm - to help and to heal others.
God welcomed his martyred monks to the company of the Saints. White blossoms decorated the entrance to glory.
The merest scrap of self-will causes the soul's union with God to be weakened, as when planks are glued together and pulled apart.
We ourselves, by God's grace, can pull down the barriers that separate us from Christ. By trust and contrition, we can come closer to Him Who is with us as every Mass in all His Risen glory.
In Heaven, garlands were hanging over the place where Our Lady's devoted priest accepted God's reward and glory.

As a child might see the point of the teacher's many instructions only later on, as he paints the details of each letter in a huge word, so we who fulfil God's Will can hope for eventual understanding and glory.
As a gardener waits confidently for buds to open at just the right time, so must I await the fruition of God's work in my life.
