welcome to my blog

Welcome to this blog, where I share some of the things of life common to us all. Simple things where we recognise God is breaking through, to remind us that he's with us always, in sorrows and in joys.

Please note that my most recent posts continue below this welcome post:

This blog is dedicated to all of you who visit here; that God may be pleased to bless us, in the sharing of it - whether in the reading or the writing of it.
It's also dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, because to honor the Mother is to honor the Son.
Yours truly, Virtus.

Chrismas greetings

"I say to all those who are listening, 'light the candle of peace inside yourself, light the candle of welcoming and understanding that will help you listen and share the cry of the poor and of those who suffer,' (Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone.)"

...May we welcome the Prince of Peace who is that inner light, (whose presence lit up the stable in Bethlehem)into our own homes; Peace starts with our willingness to bear that light to others, in spirit, in body in prayer.
God Bless from Virtus...
