Each of us must 'climb' to Heaven in faith, hope and love, if we wish to reach glory, and avoid the smoke of Hell which lies below. With humility we can hope to persevere to the end, and to avoid lukewarmness, despair or self-satisfaction.

When someone brushed me aside and refused to help me, Jesus looked upon me with a lovely smile and infinate kindness, just as He did when He went to greet the blind beggar at the roadside.

It is a dangerous thing for someone to be so unwilling to leave his own interests or obsessions that he is prepared to ignore the cries of someone in distress or desperate need.

A soul who is absorbed in itself, devoid of warmth towards its fellow creatures, is in a dangerous state. It resembles the frozen wastes of the Arctic, where there is little life or joy or hope.

Christ is swift to comfort us in our difficulties. In Holy Communion, He rushes to wrap us in His love, with tenderness and deep concern, just as a rescuer rushes towards an abandoned child, to cover her in a warm blanket and hold her close to himself.

The Heart of Jesus Christ our Saviour is so vast that it contains the whole universe, our world, and everyone on it. He loves every person with a deep, fervent and tender love. He prays for each of us today with as much fervour and power as when He prayed on the Cross.

By it's very nature, love is fruitful and generous; and so the Lord invites all married people to understand that the moral teachings of the Church are true. Whoever uses contraception, even in difficult circumstances, is acting against God's wishes, and no longer shines with the radiance that comes from the Holy Spirit.

Of what use is it, if a man who needs to be lifted from a hole in the road, is simply told by a passer-by: "I'm praying for you"? Both prayer and practical help are needed.

We need to give practical help to those in need, as well as prayer, when people are in trouble. It is not enough, usually, just to say: "I'll pray for you".

Christ loves to welcome His friends in Holy Communion. He especially delights in giving consolation and peace to those who are weary in His service, or enduring extraordinary trials for love of Him.

Jesus was made refreshed and joyful by sitting with His friends in Bethany, in a welcome silence. He knew He was loved, and though He was full of compassion for needy people He was glad to retire for a while from the noise and bustle of the crowds.

Sometimes, when we are tired, Christ calls us to rest, and 'helps us' to find that rest in our lives.

To live on earth is to be surrounded by disasters, and to be called to undergo our own trials, hence the importance of knowing that we are all brothers and sisters, all in need, all able to help one another.

We should never doubt the love of Christ. He forgives all our sins and failings if we turn to him with trust and contrition.

Christ offers comfort to everyone; but if we refuse to draw close to Him we cannot receive his help

Many of Christ's brave friends have suffered mockery, imprisonment and death, in order to remain faithful to the teachings of His Church, and out of love for Him.

Amongst the many people in Heaven are parents who would have liked to receive love and thanks from their children in earthly life. God wants families to show love for one another.
