This is pure worship: To be at the heart of the Three Divine Persons, content to gaze, to adore, and to offer one's heart and life and self.

When Christ was hanging on the Cross in torment He was aware of all human tragedies from the beginning to the end of life - including the sufferings of those on 9/11. God does not look on impassively as mankind suffers; on the contrary, the Son of God came down to earth to share our sufferings, even to die. When Christ rose from the dead, He made a way to Heaven for all who would follow Him.

Christ prayed to the Father, in His earthly life: prayer from one Divine Person to another, equal in majesty. The reciprocal love blazing out between them is the Holy Spirit: a torrent of love so fiery and radiant that no sinful creature could have borne the sight. Only in Heaven can we see it, in its fullness.

Everything in a priest's life should pale into insignificance when set beside the supreme task of saving souls and leading them towards an everlasting Easter. No personal or private ambition or scheme must intrude.

It was because so few Catholics knew much about the Faith, or about the stages of the spiritual life, that God taught me so much about our Christ, Who is the living image of Our Father in Heaven and on fire with the same Divine Love.

Christ can see the life of each one of us, from start to finish. Through His omniscience as God, He sees exactly what use we will make of our free-will, and His gifts and graces. He sees the good choices and the bad, and sees all of our reactions to His invitations and interventions. He sees who will reach sanctity.

When people ask the way, it is kind to tell the truth; for example, to explain if they are in a cul-de-sac. So it is in the life of faith. Those who ask questions of us deserve a clear answer about the best Way to travel in order to find God and Heaven and Eternal Joy. It is helpful to offer a free map.

If we guide a person towards danger, we are responsible for their injuries, whether on a beach, or through publishing bad books, or in any area of life.
