Easter is not just a single day—it is a season, a transformation, and an invitation to see with new eyes. In this reflection, we ponder the Paschal mystery through the lens of Faith, exploring how the Resurrection of Jesus offers not only victory over sin and death but also a renewed perspective on our struggles, failures, and defeats.

Even when Lent feels like a missed train or our resolutions fall apart, the empty tomb still speaks. Join us as we consider how the gift of Faith allows us to “see and believe,” and how saints like Peter, John, and Thérèse of Lisieux guide us deeper into the joy of Paschaltide: a joy that leads to abiding union with the risen Christ.

What do you see when you look at a crucifix?

Is it guilt? Indifference? Or can it become your greatest comfort?

In this reflection, we explore the powerful mystery at the heart of the Christian faith: the Crucified Christ. With the help of St. Thérèse of Lisieux—who clung to the cross in life and in death. We reflect on why this image is not a symbol of defeat, but of victorious love.

This is not a sentimental meditation. It’s a deep look at the comfort only Christ can give—comfort that reaches into our suffering, our fear of death, and our longing to be loved.

Envy poisons the soul, making us see others as rivals rather than companions in grace. But St. Thérèse of Lisieux discovered a truth that uproots envy completely—God’s love is infinite, merciful, and personal. 

We explore St. Thérèse’s profound garden imagery and how it reveals the key to overcoming envy. She once longed to be like the rose, yet she found peace in accepting her place as a simple violet or daisy. Her wisdom teaches us that God’s love is not scarce like earthly goods but abundant like the noonday sun, shining on all without measure. Discover how to embrace your place in God’s garden and rejoice in the gifts of others.
