Q. What is the fundamental difference that the existence of God, and His self-Revelation, makes in our human life. A. God is the source of all life. God is the source of existence and God’s existence gives our human life and all creation both an origin and destination.

As we read in the First Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians (9:24-25) While all the...

Following Jesus along the way of the Cross is really at the heart of Catholic Faith. The Passion and Cross of Our Lord show us that when we Love and Trust God the Father we can accept all that comes our way, the good and the bad alike, because God who “makes all things work for good for those who love Him” is in charge. The Way of the Cross leads us through the passion of this life to the last moment of every human life when we like Jesus mus offer our entire life joyfully to the Father...
