The life of peace and grace cannot be tasted by one who refuses to discard his selfish desires. Thus laden, he cannot enter humbly within his own soul.

By seeing our daily life, in God's light, we see the 'layers' of praise, work, resentments, unforgiven sins, unremedied wrongs - like taking samples of core from the ground.

Christ shares His Divine Life with each communicant; and He builds 'bridges' between those who love Him.

Our life should be offered to God, entirely, wholeheartedly; for His service and glory. This is what Christ did on earth.

A person's whole life should be offered, wholeheartedly, to God. Anything less is unworthy of Him, though He is patient.

At Holy Communion, a great flame, like an arrow, descended. Christ had arrived in His Spirit's power, the Father's life, in His own love.

What end awaits a human life which is sinful, lacking Divine Life, existing far from God? It falls, like a husk, a fruitless thing.

A blaze of light streams upwards to Heaven, from the heart of a baby whose heart, after baptism, is full of Divine Life.

We can meet Christ in the Blessed Sacrament on the altar; in His Person and His Presence, we can touch every stage of Christ's life.

Wonderful things can happen in the life of grace, no matter how restricted our life. Every trial, if accepted, gives glory to God.

The best mediator for men in trouble is another man. The very best is the God-man, Jesus Christ: He surpasses all others by His Divine Love, combined with His human cry from the depths of the pit which is human estrangement and suffering.

Our life can be seen as a flat ribbon which passes near the dazzling 'sphere' of Divine Life. A point where ribbon touches sphere is found in Holy Mass.

The Consecration at Mass is the 'intersection' between human life and Divine Life, as when a ribbon touches a sphere.

One who 'touches' Christ at the 'intersection' of Divine and human life at Holy Mass, 'touches' Christ the infant, the crucified, the Risen Lord.

A 'Ribbon' representing our Life touches and enters the 'sphere' of the Godhead. Our entire life's value, purpose and outcome can only be seen clearly when seen "in God", either in prayer or after death. Outside God is darkness.

God gives clear 'sight', sometimes, in contemplation; while one who sees only from beneath the water of earthly life has only the 'sight' of faith.

There is nothing in one's life which cannot be seen more clearly, with marvellous results, when examined 'at the foot of the cross'.

We can offer up our sufferings in union with Jesus in His Passion, to comfort Him, and to help other souls. Every suffering in our lives can be offered up, united with Jesus in that same type of suffering in His own life: our fear united to His in Gethsemane; our being misunderstood, with Jesus deserted by His Apostles; our grief, with Jesus weeping for Lazarus; our fear of evil forces, with Jesus being tempted by Satan.

God's light, pouring into the soul of one who is reconciled, reveals only minor imperfections, which sometimes seem unavoidable in life on earth.

Christ is radiant and joyful in His Risen Life
