I think everyone deserves their person. Someone they can crack jokes with, someone they can run to when they crave presence and silence. Everyone, rich or poor, deserves to experience love and be loved. I hope you find your person.
Dear Jesus, I want to speak of your love all the days of my life. And when it’s time for you to call me back to you, may my last breath be a hymn of your love, mercy, kindness and consistency.
Dear Jesus, never let me lose my way. Beat me if you have to when I’m letting the difficulties of life control my relationship with you. Where do I want to go outside of your presence?
And one day, the day will start without you and life will go on. So now that you have the time, live for Jesus, know him and serve him because in the end, the life you live now will determine where you’ll spend eternity.

What a privilege it is to serve God. If the cell phone is taken away from you and you didn’t have social media to proof your love to God, and you didn’t have to share the Bible verse you read in your private time, what would your relationship with God sound like?
May God help us to fall in love with him first before falling in love with the things He wants us to do. May He help us to love souls, not followers, not gatherings, not auditorium, not mass gatherings but Souls.
R.T
And if you come closer to me, I’ll brainwash you to praying your rosary daily, reading your Bible daily, attending Mass every Sunday and seeking first the kingdom of God before taking any decision in life.
Life is going to give you so many reasons to be unkind and inconsiderate towards people. When that time comes, choose kindness and consideration even if you feel they do not deserve it.
Pray for the grace to recognise that you can be the problem in your relationships. Some of us have focused so much on fixing others and seeing others as the problem to the extent that we forget that sometimes trying to fix people can destroy so much than it can mend.
What manner of love is this? St Paul is reminding us that no sin in all creation can separate us from his love which is ours “THROUGH CHRIST JESUS”. Such love was made possible through the cross.
If you feel dirty before God, may this be a reminder that he loves you regardless.
Today, St Paul reminds us in the 2nd reading (Romans 8:35, 37 & 39)
that no trouble, hardship, persecution, hunger, poverty, danger or death can separate us from the love of Christ. Nothing in all creation will ever separate us from his love.
What a privilege and an honour to know that in our sinless states, when we feel very unworthy of being in God’s presence, St Paul is reminding us that THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in all creation that can separate us from God’s love which is ours through Jesus Christ our Lord
I saw a post that said “one day, a day will start without you”. I read that twice and this is the reality that some of us still struggle to accept. My only prayer is that our blessed Mother holds our hands and transition with us when our time comes.
