Hidden Depths of Human Experience and Emotions Emotions are at the core of the vivid scenes that compose our stories. They colour our days with joy, sorrow, anger, and everything in between. How much have you ever paused to consider the shades beneath the vividness? What about the subtler hues that often go unnoticed? Emotions,…
Gifts From God and Their Outcomes Imagine if every question was answered as immediately as it was asked, and where no one ever doubted anything. Would this not be a meaningless prison of certainty? Then let us here consider the interplay between grace and reason, for theses are not opposites but complementary forces that work…
Divine Love in Everything The only absolute that can truly satisfy the human soul is God’s Love. For what is an absolute if not something that remains unchanged? Even in the face of all uncertainty. Relativism and subjectivity are the rule of the day, yet truths transcend our own desires, fears, and short lives. The…

Recognitions of God’s divine love for and purpose in us are not byproducts of the virtues but rather the reverse. These recognitions are the engine and transmission…
