It’s reassuring to know that something glorious awaits those who believe in Christ.

I always appreciate your thoughts and inspirations. My husband and I did some January camping in Death Valley. At first I thought the place was interesting but dull and blah. After a few days I began to see The Artist’s paintbrush on the rocks and in the hues of colors displayed in the valley. Oh death, where is thy sting!

My compendium of reflection ideas from a number of A Catholic Moments including yours: “God forgives us our sins, immediately, completely, no matter what, and with no questions asked in the Sacrament of Reconciliation.”
A good Sabbath and weekend to all.

I love this reflection. It’s so true that the fear of death can prevent us from truly living. If we have nothing to live for, then we have nothing to die for. Have a blessed All Souls Day.

Great and appropriate reflection for All Souls Day. May the little lights in our lives bring us the confidence that our Savior will be there in the right moment and raise us up on the last day. Peace with you my brother.
