Eternal Life

Created for the Desire to Hope

September 24, 2020 by Kaitlyn Boyd 2 Comments

Waiting for the Lord Jesus Christ, Sacred Heart of Jesus

Have you ever caught yourself questioning what you are meant to do in your life? What career is best, who you will marry, where you’re going to live? Being human, we have a tendency to question everything since we always will have a questioning nature. It’s the reason so many question the existence of God: we need to know the answers.

Pentecost, descent of the Holy Spirit

The gift of the Spirit constitutes in a real way an immediate entry into eternal life; for by virtue of the indwelling Spirit the Christian shares in God’s own divine nature.

Obedience Is The Way of Love

May 16, 2020 by Deacon Frederick Bartels Leave a Comment

Light of Christ, Grace of Jesus

Obedience, the way of love, is tied to keeping the commandments of the Lord Jesus. We keep the commandments of Christ because we love who he is. We love his deeds and words and his way of life. In free and loving obedience is found happiness.

Is Eternal Life Boring? Will We Tire of Heaven?

February 13, 2020 by Derrick Huestis Leave a Comment

misty morning, heaven, purgatory, prayers rising up to God

Is it possible for eternal life to be boring? Will we tire of the “endless day” and the “unending now” of heaven? Might it be better not to live forever, as atheists often think?

The Prophet Hosea and Jonah

At all times and places, God labors to draw you to himself. Are you aware of God’s presence? The prophet Hosea gives a beautiful description of the gracious mercy and compassion of God, who allures his fallen people to himself by speaking to their hearts with words of love.

Pope St. John Paul II:

Jesus Christ meets the man of every age, including our own, with the same words: “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” These words contain both a fundamental requirement and a warning: the requirement of an honest relationship with regard to truth as a condition for authentic freedom, and the warning to avoid every kind of illusory freedom, every superficial unilateral freedom, every freedom that fails to enter into the whole truth about man and the world.  (Redemptor Hominis No. 12)
