The Holy Communion is the special meal that Jesus instituted before going to the cross. He said, “Do this in remembrance of me“ (Luke 22:19). In other words, through this statement, Jesus teaches us that this meal is directly tied to His person. But how should we understand this unsettling statement? Jesus Himself provides the […]
This week, take time to pray and ask God for forgiveness. Make this prayer with sincerity, and God, who knows you, will act in your favor to make you whiter than snow. This text is an excerpt from the book “Marriage: Prayers of the Single Person“ written by Maryse-Abygaïl DANIEL. We invite you to read […]
Before going to bed one evening in October 2022, I felt an incredibly strong urge to go to Brazzaville, Congo, my home country. But I had no reason to go, I hadn’t planned to go until June 2023, and I was deterred by the high cost of airfare. So I asked God to confirm if […]
