I learned about Mary's goodness and graciousness; I saw why she helps the weak and needy.

Those who have been blind to God's goodness and lukewarm about practicing the virtues will find, in Purgatory, the contrast between their selfishness and God's goodness.

In Christ's Person is found every facet of love and loveliness. He and His mother are our 'patterns' - models of goodness for all.

All good fruits derive their goodness from the 'vine' which is Christ. The greatest nourishment comes from nearness to Him.

Every good prayer, every act of faith in God and His goodness, is like a cry from a 'soldier': 'Our hero - Christ - is worth dying for!'

Christ wants us to pay attention to the Saints: to their living relationship with us, their feast days, shrines, relics and statues. We should treasure these as we treasure what connects us with earthly family and friends. We could ask the Saints for their prayers, with confidence in their love and God's goodness.

Graces are poured out from Heaven, like a great river of power and goodness, at the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary with God, on our behalf.

Jesus Christ is true God, who took on our human nature, having the humility and goodness to come amongst us as a mere infant.

We might sometimes question the wisdom of surrendering to God's Will, when we imagine our own plans are good. Yet His plan for us is always best: so great, eventually, that it's as if, in following His Will, we have accepted a life with a King in His Coronation Coach, even when we had not expected such goodness.

For a life that is truly worthwhile we need faith in God, trust in His goodness and power, and in the merits of Jesus' Passion and death. Even a person stranded on a desert island, with no-one in sight, is connected to God the Father, through Jesus, and to the Saints and Angels of Heaven, and to the Catholic Church throughout the world, as long as he has faith. We must do all we can to make that faith grow.

When Christ was in the Upper Room, praying before His Passion, He was praying in the Holy Spirit to His Heavenly Father. The Three are One God, distinct Persons but undivided; and we should remember that salvation is the work of the Holy Trinity. The Father's goodness, the Son's obedience and the Spirit's power have made our salvation possible.

The new road being made represents the road never-before trodden by the couple who have now become a married couple joined by God. Yet their road joins up with a great highway which leads to Heaven, and represents God the Father's plan for the human race. It is His will that families move forwards together, each man and woman with their children, living close to other families who also live in peace and goodness, remaining aware of their Heavenly destination.

As the Son of God looked down from Heaven towards the filth and darkness which He would enter, far below, when He came into our sinful world, He saw the Blessed Virgin Mary, who had been prepared, at her consent, as a safe place for Him who is all purity and goodness. She was like an 'ark', to hold and protect Him for a while.
