The divine knowledge of a soul is always a merciful knowledge.

We can never be in a true relationship with God until we discover that we are only known mercifully. Not just loved with intermittent mercy after sinning and repenting once again, but that we cannot be looked at, that we cannot be known by God or drawn to him except as a soul in need, poor and destitute, incapable of avoiding collapse and ruin without divine intervention.

September 8 marks the Feast of the Nativity of Blessed Virgin Mary. This day is the greatest and the most important day in history because it marks the birth of a blessed woman who was chosen to be the mother of the Savior of the world. Blessed Mary is the spiritual mother of all people and the holiest of God's creatures.

While reading the Holy Bible, one can encounter a Biblical verse that has a resounding effect on daily life. It is a verse that abounds with hope and gives a profound impression of bright days to come once one can grasp the meaning of this verse.

Humans are prone to sin. The accumulation of sins over the year drives people either to get inundated with evil-doing to the point that they cannot deviate from this course or they feel that they intolerably overburdened with sins and wrongdoings so that they need someone whom they trust to talk to so as to unload their wrongdoing and feel relieved.

Do you believe in these words of Jesus: 'I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.' (Mt 18:19,20)

Sainthood is the ultimate objective of the faithful. It is a step of drawing close to the Lord through a life full of obedience, love for all humans, sacrifices for the betterment of life, as well helping the poor and the needy.

The Holy Bible abounds with verses that shed light on sainthood. Here are some of them:
“You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” (1 Peter 2:5)

Whenever a catastrophe befalls somewhere in the world, the first helpful reaction comes from His Holiness Pope Francis.

Following the bleak days that followed the 1967 events in the Middle East and the state of instability that prevailed later, Caritas Jordan was born with the aim of turning the bleak nights into bright light days inspired by the divine power.
