A Splendour Denied to Poor Mortals

A Splendour Denied to Poor Mortals

Mysteries. Our life is full of them; creation itself, which cannot be entirely comprehended by the limited human mind, has them in abundance. Among these mysteries, what seems to most awaken human wonder is the mark of grandeur which the Divine Artist has imprinted on certain of His works, so …

Like Grains of Sand?

Like Grains of Sand?

An Example of Resistance

An Example of Resistance

I invite you, dear reader, to leave the practical affairs of daily life and rest a little in the lessons that God has left magnificently “written” in creation. Through contemplation, let us raise our spirits and dwell for a while with the supernatural. What is admiration, if not to find …

Vox Prophetica

Vox Prophetica

Journeying over mountains and through valleys, following winding rivers and rough or paved roads, one scene that commonly meets the traveller’s eyes is that of a tower in the distance.

Where Is Matthew?

Nobly Sacral

Nobly Sacral

It is a noble room, but it does not belong to a palace; it is distinctly sacral, and yet not a chapel. In this atmosphere one feels joy, without hearing laughter; there is light without exaggeration, a beauty that does not turn the spirit from the most elevated thoughts. Comfortable …
