CONSIDER AS A DUTY OF CONSCIENCE, NEVER TO SPEAK ILL OF ANY ONE. IF YOU CANNOT PREVENT OTHERS FROM DETRACTION ; SHEW THEM AT LEAST BY YOUR SILENCE THAT YOU TAKE NO PART IN THEIR CRIMINAL CONVERSATION. -- IMITATION OF BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, BY SAINT AMBROSE

In today’s world when everything is closed because global crisis of corona virus, People instead of detaching themselves from the world and coming closer to the Lord most of them are busy gossiping through social media. Instead of becoming strength to other people others around us we indulge in unprofitable talks which will only bring us dreadful judgement.

We have to understand that Gossiping has not done any good to anyone in the past and it will not do good to us now or in the future. It is our duty to stop gossiping by not forwarding to everyone videos or any other things which is not profitable to them.

People instead of spreading prayers in time of crisis they choose to send funny videos of the crisis or all the other useless things which can bring fear in other people.

We have to understand when we gossip or be a partner with others by spreading their gossip to others without thinking the damage it can cause to others. We all should know that we have to give account of all the careless words we have spoken on the day of judgement.

Let us make a firm decision not to forward everything we receive with others but only that which is going to help them to build them self strong and also build their courage and Hope and all other forward we receive let it end with us and let us delete then and there so that it may not spread.

Gossiping starts with 1 but it can end with us if we are alert or else it will spread like wild fire which cannot be extinguished so easily without causing damage to many people.

“Our hearts were made for You, O Lord, and they are restless until they rest in you.”-St. Augustine of Hippo.

GOD has created all of us for a purpose and that purpose we will come to know only when we know God, Love God, Obey God and serve God.

Most of us instead of knowing, loving, obeying and serving God we start chasing our dreams and become very busy in managing our worldly affairs and because of this most of us do not know how to handle crisis coming in our life.

When we are managing our worldly affairs most of us use our intelligence, our strength and our effort to make it successful but the truth is it can flourish for a while and suddenly we will not even have clue of landing into crisis.

We have to understand if we have to be in peace in midst of our crisis then our heart has to rest on GOD, Our heart cannot rest on God without our heart resting on GOD’S Word, Our heart cannot rest on God’s Word unless we obey everyday and build our total confidence on the Word of God.

If we have total confidence in the Word of God no matter what happens around us we will be calm and peaceful all the time because of our heart totally resting on GOD.

Today in midst of global crisis of corona virus most of the people are in total fear, restless and in confusion because their heart is resting on the crisis rather than God. When we shift our focus from crisis to God  our heart will be in total rest and because of this  we will be peaceful and also become blessing in many peoples life.

 WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN 2 THESSALONIANS 3:3 -BUT THE LORD IS FAITHFUL; HE WILL STRENGTHEN YOU AND GUARD YOU FROM THE EVIL ONE.

We are all in danger of falling into different traps set by the evil and his companions but without our knowledge many times GOD has saved us but  we have not noticed it because of not being attentive and alert.

When we were in sin also God in His Miraculous ways have turned us from prayerless to prayerful but we think we have come to prayer because of our own will. God was waiting with His outstretched arms to receive us every moment but we because of giving our heart to something else we have not listened to the voice of GOD.

We have to understand that no matter how much we try by our will, at one or the other point of time we will be unfaithful to GOD but God is always faithful to His Word and He will do everything He has spoken through His Word in our life only if we believe in His Word and stand firm on it no matter how difficult is the situation in our life.

GOD’S Word is our only strength in our weakness and also our sword to fight the devil and his companions. If we do not strengthen our self with the Word of GOD every day we will live a defeated life and will never learn to win over the devil and his tactics.

God is always faithful to His Word and will never change His Word according to situation as we do. If we recite His Word daily and build our self then surely God will provide all the strength we need every day and also protect us from the evil one.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN PSALM 86:10- FOR YOU ARE GREAT AND DO WONDROUS THINGS; YOU ALONE ARE GOD.
 We are all forgetful people who think about God when crisis or disaster or any other disturbing things strike us otherwise we are very busy in our own world. God is always great because He has allowed in our life personal crisis, community crisis and global crisis so that we may turn our face towards Him and seek Him. We have to pray daily not because we will receive something from God but to seek HIM, to know HIM and to love HIM. When we were in sin GOD’S love Was overflowing in our life and because of that we have given up our sinful ways and are seeking GOD daily or else we would also been with the worldly people doing things that are not profitable. In today’s world GOD has shown His mercy and love by allowing global crisis so that through it HE is working something good in our life. We having received so many great and small blessings from the Lord from childhood till date we need to ask our self whether we have thanked the Lord for His blessings and also whether we have shared our testimony of Lords doing in our life with others. Without counting all the blessings not only external but also internal we will not know the work of Lord in our life. Most of the people are looking at external blessing and are dissatisfied all the time and they never see the internal blessing Lord has blessed us with. For example If we had terrible anger in the past and today if our anger has reduced it is the work of the Lord, In the past if we were getting disturbed for silly things and today we are not disturbed at helpless situations it is the work of the Lord in our life. These types of hundreds of things God has accomplished in our life which we do not notice or notice and ignore and we keep focused all the time on 2 things that is health and money. Both are essential but both cannot save us on the day of judgement.  Date: 28:03: 2020.

Our body has this defect that, the more it is provided care and comforts, the more needs and desires it finds. –St. Teresa of Avila.

Our body requires food, clothing, work, rest and entertainment so that we will be happy. Truth is all these are required but in limitation so that our body may fall into greed of asking for more.

Worldly people do everything to keep their body happy and when it comes to their soul they are very careless. Rich people want to wear expensive clothes and accessories so that all the people will notice them but in reality they are wasting a large sum of money which can feed at least 25 people for a month.

Most of us do not even understand everything done in moderation will save us from decorating our body which will be totally useless after our death. The same body which we have decorated all our life when we were alive will be decaying under the ground after our death.

We have to understand food is essential for the growth of our body in the same way Word of God is very essential food for the growth of our soul.

Most of us are happy when there is food at our table and every situation in our life is good, the moment something goes wrong we cannot bear it and try to blame others for the same. We have to analyze our life and check when everything was good and flourishing in our life whether we were kind to the poor and the needy, whether we were avoiding unnecessary expenses, whether we were eating simple food, whether we were wearing simple clothes ,live in a simple house and drive a simple vehicle. When we check all this for most of us the answer will come no. 

We have been successful in providing our body with great care and comfort but we have failed miserably to feed our soul. Let us make a firm decision today to feed our soul with the Word of God without depending on our situation and provide our body what it needs and not what it wants.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN REVELATION 3:20-- LISTEN! I AM STANDING AT THE DOOR, KNOCKING; IF YOU HEAR MY VOICE AND OPEN THE DOOR, I WILL COME IN TO YOU AND EAT WITH YOU, AND YOU WITH ME. 

When we are in the world we will be developing a skill of talking and people will appreciate us if we are good speaker. When we come to prayer also we try to be like we were in the world and fail miserably because when we pray we need to talk less and listen more.

More we listen to the voice of GOD from within us more we will grow spiritually. Voice of the Lord is soft and comes from within us when we are alert in prayer we will listen and do exactly what the voice says.

Let us take for example 100,000 people are in prayer everyday out of this hardly 100 will listen to the voice of God and act on it and rest will only say their prayers and get to their work. This happens because most of the people’s mind is rested on problems when they pray and those few who listen to the voice of GOD are totally concentrating on GOD.

Jesus is knocking at the door of our heart so that HE can be one with us, we because of being busy in our daily life we fail to listen to Him and open the door of our heart for Him.

Jesus wants be with us all the time so that He will walk with us, eat with us, sleep with us, pray with us, speak to us and also listen to us but we reject Jesus all the time because of our heart fixed in the other things of the world.

Now at least after the crisis of virus has stuck us let us concentrate on the Lord and hear His Voice and also obey His voice even if it is difficult so that we will know Him little by little daily.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN 3 JOHN 1:11 - BELOVED, DO NOT IMITATE WHAT IS EVIL BUT IMITATE WHAT IS GOOD. WHOEVER DOES GOOD IS FROM GOD; WHOEVER DOES EVIL HAS NOT SEEN GOD.


We are living in this world full of corruption and deceit. Most of the people living in this world are following evil ways and also they influence others around them to do the same.

In today’s world we have to imitate what is good to be example to others around us and we cannot imitate what is good through our human efforts or by our human knowledge but by getting connected every moment to the source of all goodness that is GOD.  

Today’s generation are comfortable to imitate celebrities or sports persons or political leaders or any other person so that they do not have to put much effort to do so but these people have to understand when crisis like corona virus hits our surrounding these people whom we imitate cannot save us, The only one who can save our life from this crisis is JESUS. Only those who follow and imitate JESUS will live without fear in midst of any crisis others fall trap to fear and try to run away from crisis.

We have to understand we cannot imitate what is good unless we know what is good and what is evil. To know what is good and evil we have to know thoroughly the Word of God. When we know thoroughly the Word of God we will be clearly knowing what is good and what is evil and when we make a decision to obey God we will follow what is good and reject what is bad and by doing this we show to others around us that we have experienced God in our life.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN 1 CHRONICLES 16:22 – TOUCH NOT MY ANOINTED ONES, DO MY PROPHETS NO HARM.

We all go for Holy mass, prayer meetings, retreats and Novenas, after going there and getting blessings in GOD we instead of blessing the Priest or nun or preachers we speak ill about them and we call upon ourselves curse instead of blessing.

Every priest or nun or preacher is human being and can do mistakes at times we instead of praying for them we highlight their mistakes and spread it in social media without understanding the damage that will do to our life.

We have to understand every priest or nun or preachers are anointed ones of GOD because GOD has chosen them and sent them on a mission and they have Abrahams blessing as mentioned in the word of GOD in Genesis 12. WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS GOD WILL BLESS THOSE WHO BLESS GODS ANOINTED ONES AND CURSE THOSE WHO CURSE GODS ANOINTED ONES.

We have to be very careful when we are in the midst of gossipers so that when they speak we have to either ignore and walk away or if we are bold enough rebuke them and make them stop speaking.

If we stand with them and listen and give our opinion we automatically become partners in their sins and we together with them have to bear all the consequence of the sin.

Let us make a decision to bless all the anointed ones of GOD no matter what they do so that we may be blessed in return by GOD.

Word of God clearly says in 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17 - All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.


In today’s world all activities in the churches are closed down due to virus problems but still people are sharing about how to avoid getting virus and home remedies etc but very few are interested to ask GOD for solutions.

Most of our catholic brethren are fallen behind in reciting the scriptures, memorizing the scriptures and also obeying the scriptures and because of this instead of becoming strong in faith they are becoming strong in fear.

We have to understand that God has written His Word for a purpose just not for us to read but to obey and make it part of our life. When we make God’s Word part of our life it teaches us , it warns us, it corrects us, it trains us to be right according to it.

We have to know that without us being taught, corrected, rebuked and trained we will not be able to do any good work. W e may think to do good works but we cannot do it without the help of GOD. When we recite GOD’S Word and stand firm on it even when the situations go upside down it is the sign for us that we are getting equipped by God to do His Mission.

GOD COULD NOT PERMIT THAT THE TEMPLE IN WHICH HE CHOSE TO DWELL SHOULD BE DEFILED BY THE LEAST SPOT OR BLEMISH. THE HONOUR OF THE SON REQUIRED THAT HIS MOTHER SHOULD NOT, EVEN FOR AN INSTANT, BE THE SLAVE OF THE DEVIL-- IMITATION OF BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, BY SAINT AMBROSE.

Mother Mary is full of Grace, This truth many of the non Catholics deny after being written in the Gospel and preach to others that Mother Mary is ordinary woman and God could have chosen any woman to be the mother of JESUS.

Truth is it is next to impossible for anyone to take the place of Mother Mary because she was Chosen by God before she was born and God prepared her to be born without original sin and also gave her full Grace so that she was without sin from her birth till her death. We can see only 2 people recorded from Adam and Eve to the modern era who were without sin from birth to death first one is Jesus and second one is Mother Mary.

God knew beforehand that when His Son was without any sin the mother of His son also should be the same. That is why GOD chose out of the entire mankind one woman to be the Mother of Jesus that is Mother Mary. Mother Mary was born when her parents were aged and she was very humble and holy. Many think that after Angel Gabriel gave message to Mother Mary she was chosen to be the mother of Jesus, but the truth is she was chosen when she was conceived in her mother Anna’s womb.

GOD is a master planner so whatever He spoke through prophet Isaiah 700 years before the birth of Jesus was fulfilled when Mother Mary accepted the Message of Angel Gabriel and co-operated with GOD in bringing to this world our Saviour, our redeemer and our God JESUS CHRIST.

“GIVE SOMETHING, HOWEVER SMALL, TO THE ONE IN NEED. FOR IT IS NOT SMALL TO ONE WHO HAS NOTHING. NEITHER IS IT SMALL TO GOD, IF WE HAVE GIVEN WHAT WE COULD.”- SAINT GREGORY NAZIANZEN

In today’s world people who are in prayers as well as people who are not in prayers are becoming more greedy and selfish and that’s why we see rich becoming richer and the poor becoming poorer.

God has created rich and poor for a purpose so that whoever is rich may share with the poor, but the truth in this world today is the rich want to become richer and poor struggle everyday with their needs.

Today we see sharing and caring is becoming less in the modern churches and people flock to churches just to fulfil their obligation or to satisfy their needs. 

When we share a little with others who do not have for them it’s not small because of their urgent need of the hour. When we make a habit of sharing a little with others it will give us joy and also in the eyes of God whatever little we do with great love is pleasing to Him.

In this world we see many people because of job loss or business loss or family problem or health problem they will be in helpless situation to meet their daily needs and if we are going to be of any help to them they will be encouraged and have hope.

Let us not pray always for our selfish needs but also be generous in praying for others needs and also if we can do any help we should not hold back and wait till we will be in that same situation.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN REVELATION 3:19 - I REPROVE AND DISCIPLINE THOSE WHOM I LOVE. BE EARNEST, THEREFORE, AND REPENT. 

 When we are going through misfortunes or sickness or failures or disappointments or any other crisis in our life we have to understand that GOD has allowed all this in our life to bring us to discipline and also to correct us.

Many of us because of our ego and pride we reject corrections from GOD and also reject every disciplinary action coming from the Lord. When we reject everything coming from the Lord we instead of fighting our battle through faith we run away from our problems because of fear.

God will not discipline and correct everyone but only those whom He loves, When He disciplines us and corrects us we have to be obedient to Him because He Knows through it He will be working something good in our life.

We have to be quick in accepting discipline and corrections so that GOD will set right everything that has gone wrong in our life and also He will exalt us for being obedient and also reward us for trusting in Him completely.

Word of God clearly says in JEREMIAH 17:10- I the LORD test the mind and search the heart,
to give to all according to their ways, according to the fruit of their doings.

We may be in prayers at the same time doing things according to what we think it’s right as we are taught either by our parents or by our teachers or  by our friends. When we do this surely there is very less possibilities of us growing mature spiritually.

We have to know that we are tested by God in every situation to see whether we stand for Him or we walk away from Him. More we stand for Him He will reward us. 

Many of us have wrong intentions behind coming for prayers, with whatever intention we have come for prayers GOD knows beforehand. We may pretend to be holy, righteous before others and fool them but we should know that we cannot fool GOD because He knows everything which is in our mind as well as our heart and He will search everything before He rewards us.

We have to understand that when we cannot fool GOD in any way then we should not try to fool people with our outer appearance as it will never benefit us but in the longer period of time we will be embarrassed if anyone finds out about us.

TIME IS A TREASURE OF INESTIMABLE VALUE, BECAUSE IN EVERY MOMENT OF TIME WE MAY GAIN AN
INCREASE OF GRACE AND ETERNAL GLORY-- THE WAY OF SALVATION AND OF PERFECTION – SAINT ALPHONSUS LIGOURI.

In today’s world we waste a lot of time on whatsapp, internet, TV, friends, shopping mall, movies, parties and many other things but when it comes to prayer we do not have any time and because of this many of us lose grace all the time and because of losing grace instead of walking forward in our life we walk backward day by day.

In today’s world we are ready to work up to 16 hours in our job because we are paid or we are ready to spend 3 to 4 hours in movies because we are entertained or ready to go for picnic whole day because we want to relax but we are not ready to pray for at least 1 hour a day.

We have to understand that even after working for a job for 16 hours or going for movies or picnic or doing any other thing and neglecting prayers we should not be assuming that we are going to saved automatically because we are Christians.

Time wasted is time lost and we have to understand that time lost cannot be brought back. We have to try our level best to set priorities in our life. If our priority in life is something other than GOD it will not flourish but will come to a halt one or the other point of time in our life. If our top most priority is GOD then surely everything we say and do will be successful.

We have to understand that GOD is supplying us Grace everyday according to our need and we have to analyze and see whether we have received it. If not we will not grow in our Spiritual life. Our daily spiritual growth determines our final destination. When we increase in Grace we will also increase in faith, Joy, Peace and Patience. Let us not waste our time in things that are not profitable to us but let us put our time in things that are profitable to build us, to strengthen us, to mould us and shape us as better human beings.

“Apart from the cross, there is no other ladder by which we may get to heaven.” -St. Rose of Lima.


We are all scared of trials, suffering and sickness which will work as a cross to take us to heaven.

We have to understand the meaning of Cross in our life, Cross is nothing but purification of our sins which means it is going to pain and we have to bear all the pain to complete the process of purification. 

persecution is a cross, misunderstanding is a cross, trials is a cross, suffering is a cross, sickness is a cross and many other crosses we have to carry and walk in our journey to reach eternal life.
The main purpose of cross in our life is to bring us to right direction from wrong direction. If we are not alert then there is possibility that we may rebel against God. God has allowed the cross in our life to save us from eternal damnation. If we reject the cross then surely we will be walking in the way that evil will show us and its end is hell.
If we accept all the crosses coming our way with joy then surely we will be growing in holiness and righteousness. Cross is very painful at the same time it is helping us to build our character strong. Once our character is built strong we will be able to teach others the same.
Cross will be given to all in one or the other way because GOD wants to save everyone from going to hell. If we don’t accept it then surely we are responsible for our soul.

Word of God clearly says in PSALMS 73:26 - My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.


We are all going through one or the other problems of life and most of us live with fear and depression rather than being joyful and courageous. Only reason for this we are trying to fight the battle with our flesh and when we doing this we are alone in our battle and because of this we may quit on solving our problems by ending our life.

We have to understand unless we make GOD our strength it is next to impossible to defeat the devil. When we make GOD our strength by reciting the Word of God daily and stand firm on the Word of GOD no matter how big and impossible may be our situation GOD will come to our rescue.

Many of us because of everything going well in our life we forget GOD and because of this we do not know to handle crisis in our life. We have to know that no matter how strong we are in this world we will not be able handle crisis without the strength of GOD.

Recently there is outbreak of Corona virus all over the world and because of this many are disturbed and in fear because it is infectious and because of this most of us even scared shaking hands with others that it may not come upon them through others. The reason of disturbance and fear is our lack of trust in GOD and also our attachment to the world. When we make GOD strength of our heart any virus touching our body dies instantly and we will be protected by GOD and keep us safe in midst of outbreak according to His promises.

WE BECOME WHAT WE LOVE AND WHO WE LOVE SHAPES WHAT WE BECOME.” SAINT CLARE OF ASSISI.

We are all ambitious to become something and what we love the most will decide our destiny. If we love wrong things we may walk in the wrong way thinking that it will be good for us but the truth is this way will give us momentary pleasures. If we love God more than anything we have or we are going to have then surely we will be saved from falling trap to wrong things.

To love God or the worldly pleasures, it is in our hands. In reality most of the people choose worldly pleasures over God and because of this they instead of becoming better day by day they become worst day by day.

Worldly pleasures and desire of our flesh looks very good from outside but it will eat us little by little from inside everyday till it clears up everything blessed by GOD to us especially our Faith, Joy, Courage and patience.

God and His Kingdom looks a uphill task for us but if we do not quit day by day as we practice it will become easy for us. Initially when we climb the steps it will be difficult or else everyone would have been in GOD’S KINGDOM if it was easy. Initial few years of our fellowship with GOD with serious commitment will help us know more about Him and also to love Him above everything so that we will be given final shape by HIM.

GOD CANNOT ESTABLISH HIS KINGDOM IN A HEART ATTACHED TO THE PERISHABLE GOODS OF THE EARTH.-- IMITATION OF BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, BY SAINT AMBROSE.

We all pray OUR FATHER prayer at least once a day and most of us just say without understanding the meaning. Fourth part of Our Father says THY KINGDOME COME. But in reality most of us want our kingdom to come according to the desires we have.

We have to understand when we are attached to perishable material things of the world it is next to impossible for God’s kingdom to come in our life.

When we are joyful in midst of all our pains, when we are at peace in midst of difficult and impossible situation and when situation grow worst day by day and when we do not quit on God we have to know God has established His kingdom in our heart.

Most of us think that we have come to live permanently on this earth and work hard day and night only to increase our possessions and even after our possessions are increased there is no guarantee that we will live long to enjoy it.

It is better to increase in the knowledge of God so that our life is changed according to the plan of GOD instead of increasing in possession and neglecting God and suffering later.

Let us be attached to Jesus so that GOD’S KINGDOM may come in our heart instead of getting attached to perishing material things of the world  and walking far away from God.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN JOB 8:6 -IF YOU ARE PURE AND UPRIGHT, SURELY THEN HE WILL ROUSE HIMSELF FOR YOU AND RESTORE TO YOU YOUR RIGHTFUL PLACE.

We may all be in prayers but most of us may not concentrate on purity of thoughts, words and deeds. Because of this most of us after being in prayers for long time we wish to live a life of impurity and unrighteousness.

We have to be committed to the Lord and we have to identify all our weakness and we have to surrender it to the Lord and we have to continue praying daily so that all our weaknesses will turned into the our strength by the Lord.

God allows everything in our life so that we have to be totally dependent on Him or else we may commit more errors which will lead us into the path of destruction set up by the devil.
We have to understand whether we are going through good times or bad times we have to pray daily and also try our level best to memorize at least one scripture a day so that at the end of one year we will know at least 365 scriptures.

Most of us are very comfortable going to church or prayer meeting or retreats but we are not comfortable in prayer at our homes because of our laziness. Laziness in the long run will prove to us very costly.

Without reciting the Word of GOD, memorizing the Word of God and obeying the Word of God it is next to impossible to grow in purity and righteousness. When we grow in purity and righteousness God Himself will come and restore everything what is lost to us and also restore us our lost honour.

THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON TO CONQUER THE DEVIL IS HUMILITY. FOR, AS HE DOES NOT KNOW AT ALL HOW TO EMPLOY IT, NEITHER DOES HE KNOW HOW TO DEFEND HIMSELF FROM IT. -SAINT VINCENT DE PAUL.

Humility is the powerful weapon to fight the enemy and defeat the enemy. In today’s world everyone thinks that they are doing right according to them and not according to the Word of God and because of this instead of growing in humility we grow in self centeredness and pride.

When we are humble no matter whatever advice others give we will implement in our life if it right and ignore it if it is wrong. When we are proud we do not accept any advice and argue even if it is right and do everything as we wish till we are going to face sudden destruction.

Humility in us will always help us know more about God but our pride limits us from knowing God and makes us think that we know everything.

Devil also scared of humble people because they are always having protection of GOD around them and for devil to come closer to humble people is as good as losing battle and devil is not interested in losing battle. Devil doesn’t know to trap the humble defeat humble people because they will be filled with wisdom of God. Wisdom of God will reveal all the schemes of the devil and the proud are like blindfolded walking in wrong direction till the day of their destruction.

It is good to be humble so that GOD will reward us rather being proud and face destruction of health, relationship,  possession and even life.

WORD OF GOD CLEARLY SAYS IN 2 TIMOTHY 3:12 - INDEED, ALL WHO WANT TO LIVE A GODLY LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS WILL BE PERSECUTED.

We all come to prayers because of different reasons, some come because of job loss or business loss, some because of family problems, some because of health problems and very few come to learn about the Lord.

If we have come to prayers because of any reason other than learning About God we will be having very hard time when we are persecuted. Most of the people react very badly to all the persecution coming against them only because of not knowing the truth.

Truth is if we want to live a Godly life according to the Word of God then firstly we have to make up our mind to accept every persecution coming our way or else we may hate those who persecute us and also we may have revenge against them. We have to understand that on the account of the Word of God persecution is bound to come to us from our close ones and also far ones, We have to learn to be calm in midst of every persecution so that we may be rewarded by GOD.

GOD has allowed persecution in our life to make our character strong so that we may be able to bear all the pain in the persecution silently and by bearing all the pain that comes from persecution our character becomes strong and after that no matter whoever does anything and speak anything about us it will not affect us.

CATHOLIC SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION DAILY – BY ROVAN PINTO.




“Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.”SAINT POPE JOHN PAUL II.

In this world which looks promising but in reality full of miseries, pain, disappointments and many other things. When these things befalls on us instead of holding on to our faith in Jesus most of us fall into despair and some out of them who are fallen trap to despair entertain suicidal thoughts.

We have to understand that GOD has allowed these things in our life to build us strong and not to destroy us. In these situations which are very critical we have to recite Word of God with confidence so that God will surely rescue us.

Most of the people when they face critical situations instead of reciting the Word of God they start speaking about their afflictions with others thinking that they may get some help from them but in reality most of them listen to us like some story and walk away instead of helping us.
We have to understand nothing is easy in God’s kingdom and without having courage and patience it is next to impossible to overcome critical situations. We should know that without having Good Friday in our life there will be no Easter. Most of the people are scared of suffering that is the main reason for their despair.

We have to trust in God in every situation and bear every misery or pain or disappointment or suffering so that through that something good will sprout in our life.

CATHOLIC SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION DAILY – BY ROVAN PINTO.




Word of God clearly says in 2 TIMOTHY 1:14 - Guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.

When we are in the fellowship with the Word of God surely we will grow in the truth that is written in the Word of God but if we do not Guard it by continuously being in the fellowship with the Word of God slowly the devil will come and steal all the truth in us and make us believe everything contrary to the Word of God as truth.

We have to understand that the truth which is written in the Word of God cannot be edited or modified or cut short or can be changed because it is truth. We have to change, edit, and modify our self according to the Word of God to be rewarded or else we may find ourselves in the fellowship with truth for few months and other few months in the fellowship with lies of the devil.

When we guard the truth through HOLY SPIRIT who living in us we will know more truths regarding different areas of life or else we may know only one truth and think that is full truth. We cannot guard the truth when we quench the HOLY SPIRIT by deliberately sinning and also by rejecting every instructions coming to us from the HOLY SPIRIT.

HOLY SPIRIT is very powerful at the same time He is very gentle, so we have to be alert whenever HOLY SPIRIT speaks to us and without questioning we have to obey Him then only we will be able grow in the truth and also guard the truth in us.

CATHOLIC SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION DAILY – BY ROVAN PINTO.



FOR FAITH IS THE BEGINNING AND THE END IS LOVE, AND GOD IS THE TWO OF THEM BROUGHT INTO UNITY. AFTER THESE COMES WHATEVER ELSE MAKES UP A CHRISTIAN GENTLEMAN. –SAINT. IGNATIUS OF ANTIOCH.

We are all practicing one or the other form of prayer and through our prayer when we gain faith we will become proud of our self thinking that we have achieved everything.

But the real truth is Faith is only beginning of our journey with God. To have faith daily for few years is a great challenge we have to face and we have grow in faith little by little everyday or else it’s impossible for us to reach our destination.

Faith is always the beginning and love is the end if we have faith to move the mountains and if we do not have love we have nothing. God through His creation has displayed His great faith in His word and also love for the humans.

God is love and without knowing about love according to the Word of God it is impossible to love others, we have to analyze our life and see whether we posses 15 characteristic of love in us ,if we do not posses then we do not know anything about love(READ 1CORINTHIANS 13:4-7). 

We because of not understanding God fully we do things which is displeasing God and get away with it but if somebody does the same with us we start complaining, gossiping and hating that person for the same.

Faith in us will work powerfully when we are filled with love of God. God fills His love into us through HOLY SPIRIT when we pray. Most of us are not aware of this.

We have to know that God is filling us with His love everyday when we pray and we will be draining it out of us throughout the day by speaking negative.

Let us make effort to grow in faith and love so that we may lead others by our example.

CATHOLIC SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION DAILY- BY ROVAN PINTO.

 
                                                                                                                                                             

 We attend most carefully to our temporal welfare, and almost entirely neglect our eternal salvation!- WAY OF SALVATION AND OF PERFECTION - SAINT ALPHONSUS LIGOURI.

In this world people who are in prayers and also people who are not in prayers are so engrossed in the daily affairs of the world and because of that they neglect eternal salvation.

We may think that only by habitual prayers we can prepare ourselves for eternal salvation but the truth is it is not possible because God and His Word is a vast subject and even if we start learning everyday from the young age still we will not be able to know 100% about God.

We have to make time everyday to learn  little so that we may be able to practice that little we have learnt in our life.

If we are good in managing the things of the world and lack in spiritual life then one scripture will run in our mind day and night when we are nearing our death that is MARK 8:36-  For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?.

Let us not waste precious time in roaming around, watching excessive TV or Internet, talking worldly with others, gossiping, partying and many more which are all vanity,  instead let us spend little time in prayer and also in learning and obeying the Word of God so that we may prepare ourselves properly for eternal salvation.
