Jesus is Lord, born of the Virgin Mary. Let us pray to him with joyful hearts:
Come, Lord Jesus!
Son of God, you will come again as the true messenger of the covenant.
— help the world to recognize and accept you.
Come, Lord Jesus!
Born in your Father’s heart, you became man in the womb of the Virgin Mary,
— free us from the tyranny of change and decay.
Come, Lord Jesus!
In your life on earth, you came to die as a man,
— save us from everlasting death.
Come, Lord Jesus!
When you come to judge, show us your loving mercy,
— and forgive us our weaknesses.
Come, Lord Jesus!
Lord Jesus, by your death you have given hope to those who have died,
— be merciful to those for whom we now pray.
Come, Lord Jesus!

The End of the World: An Advent Reflection
The Catholic Church traditionally teaches us the Four Last Things (Death, Purgatory, Heaven, Hell) and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ during the Season of Advent. However, many Catholics still avert from such topics because they are frightened of these things. My Reflection this Advent on the End of the World aims to give awareness and more insights into these truths, which we must face sooner or later. My piece also includes a Personal Message to my dear Readers.
The Series starts with Saint Teresa of Avila, Doctor of the Church. Who would have thought that the great Mystic and Contemplative used to battle personal sins of worldliness? This piece I wrote contains the narrative of it and a unique ‘My Reflection’ that is thought-provoking and eye-opening.
