25th April - St. Mark the Evangelist
Unless a man gives himself entirely to the Cross, in a spirit of humility and self-abasement… he cannot become a true Christian.

I am sent to you to confute, not to embrace your heresy. The Catholic religion is the faith of all ages, I fear not death.
Stand firm in Christ, and fear no foe.
Christ is our only hope.
Unless I believe, I will not understand.
Jesus alone is enough.
My dear brothers and sisters, let us pray in today’s Eucharistic celebration for the grace to continue persevering in our faith in God knowing that Christ journeys with us always and has granted us salvation and redemption through His passion, death and resurrection.
Brothers and sisters, as we celebrate the Divine Mercy Sunday today, let us ask God to help and assist us live our His mercy and love in our world today. Let us have His mercy, compassion, forgiveness and kindness change our lives for good to proclaim and live out His teachings in our world today.
If you really want to love Jesus, first learn to suffer, because suffering teaches you to love.
Seek God, not gold. Empty yourselves (for Him) - St. Miguel de Sanctis
True healing begins when the heart opens to mercy - St. Casilda of Toledo
We must walk simply, holding ourselves in the presence of God.
God’s compassion for you is greater than the troubles you have.
May I never allow myself even the smallest compromise with sin.
My brothers and sisters, Christ our Lord has risen from the dead, and calls on us to rise with Him to newness of life, so it is time for us to work on our physical, mental and spiritual lives by bringing fresh vigor to our bodies and spirit, by creating a positive outlook in our minds, and hearts; and by being a vibrant presence within our community, so as to have a better relationship with God, with ourselves and with others.
