The Mystery of the Cross
We need to come to a point where every time we preach the word of God, whether for 5 minutes or 5 hours, we will not finish talking until we have brought men to the point of Calvary. If we give faulty gospel to men, we will raise faulty combats. And because they are faulty foundation, 20 years in church will not make them any different. Intellectualism only obscures the cross to the detriment of the hearers. The preaching of the cross is the point at which authentic power is released in to the life of people; whereas, the devil tries to paint the cross as if it is a problem. Like if someone has a difficult marriage, he wants to settle with his wife and it is proving unsolvable; when we want to counsel the person sometimes we say “that is the cross you have to carry or your wife is your cross”. That is a wrong impression of the cross. The cross is not a problematic marriage. The cross, even though there was a lot of suffering with Jesus, it is not the suffering that is the essence of the cross.
Living our vocation is an integral part of Catholic spirituality. For those called to the vocation of marriage, knowing how the Sacrament of Marriage is different from “natural marriage” is a key part of fully embracing our vocation. It also reveals to us the full meaning and beauty of Christian marriage.

Much Is Lost When Not Praying the Rosary to Our Holy MotherDuring our lifetime there are moments when you question yourself and your life path. Searching for assistance and guidance, I was directed toward spiritualism. There I found the guidance I was looking for. To my surprise it was not physical but a prayer called the rosary. This article contains what I have found out on my own regarding the daily rosary prayers that I have prayed over the last four months.
Sometimes when you write an article or blog and mention the word, Tao, or name Bhudda or Jesus Christ (especially Jesus Christ), you find hackles rising even in well-meaning people who generally like what you say. This is understandable in that the source of their discomfort is usually pretty clear: namely, by talking about such people or ideas you are evangelising for a religion and that’s bad manners at least and in any case a no-no. This is such a shame because that is so not what one is doing. It is important to understand the difference between religion (which is for some but not all) and spirituality (which properly understood concerns everybody). But having made this initial distinction I must also point out that of course they are clearly allied in some way. First things first, however: religion is a discipline, a way, a choice and a membership: you join a religion and embrace its tenets, which you hold to be the core of your life. Inevitably you fail to live up to the tenets because that is why religions exist; there would be no need for them if people were perfect.

Only a Flashlight – How Do You See Reality?Although I try to share my near-death experience, there are no words that can come close to describing its depth and the amount of knowledge that came flooding through. So the best way to express it is through the use of metaphors and analogies. Hopefully, they capture a part of the essence of what I’m trying to convey at least in some small way.
Archangels Open Doors To Limitless OpportunitiesHow many times you heard… when one door closes, a window opens? Maybe you have even said it to yourself to help ease the sting of disappointment or tried to help someone else.
Is Karma Real?One of the first questions asked when one begins to look for answers to their own spirituality: Is Karma Real? And what did I do to deserve this?
Object Lesson – Christmas BowsChristmas gifts almost always come with a Christmas Bow. The wrapping paper, ribbons, and the bows are used to decorate and bring attention to the gift. It’s not the bow that is important, but the gift it adorns. It is sad that so many people are enjoying all the wrappings of Christmas and the decorations, but they have forgotten about the gift – God with us – Emmanuel – the birth of Christ.
