Create a Clean Heart in Me, O God!

March 7, 2012 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

With voices in harmony and hearts in concord we have begged the Lord for our own hearts by saying, Create a clean heart in me, O God, and renew an upright spirit in me (Psalm 51:12)… It’s a psalm of someone repenting, someone wishing to retrieve the hope he had lost, lying where he had […]

Forgiveness & the Cross

February 1, 2012 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“Forgiveness does not mean that God says to me: Your evil deed shall be undone. It was done and remains done. Nor does it mean that he says: It was not so bad. It was bad – I know it and God knows it. And again it does not mean that God is willing to […]

Joy and Happiness in Jesus

January 9, 2012 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“O the happiness of the heavenly alleluia, sung in security, in fear of no adversity! We shall have no enemies in heaven, we shall never lose a friend. God’s praises are sung both there and here, but here they are sung in anxiety, there, in security; here they are sung by those destined to die, […]

The Presence of God

December 15, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“Always begin all your prayers with an act of the presence of God because, sometimes, for want of doing so, an action will cease to be pleasing to him. Just consider … that although we do not yet see God, faith teaches us that his holy presence is everywhere, and this is one of the […]

May the Lord make you holy

December 15, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“May God make you holy,… becoming ever more your companion, your living light, and a guide that you may always hear and follow. Let us go wherever he leads us: in darkness or light, to the splendor of Tabor or the foot of the cross. It makes no difference as long as he is with […]

Making a Holy Advent

December 5, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“Beloved, now is the acceptable time spoken of by the Spirit, the day of salvation, peace and reconciliation: the great season of Advent. This is the time eagerly awaited by the patriarchs and prophets, the time that holy Simeon rejoiced at last to see. This is the season that the Church has always celebrated with […]

Struggling against temptations

November 29, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“If we have frequently the misfortune to be caught in the snares of the devil, we must look for the cause of this misfortune in the fact that we rely too much on our own principles and ideas, and too little on our dear Lord. This is only too true. So long as nothing goes […]

God alone suffices

November 23, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“Let nothing disturb you; let nothing frighten you, all things pass away. God never changes. Patience obtains all things. He who has God, finds he lacks nothing. God alone suffices.” – St. Teresa of Avila

Closeness to God in Adoration

October 12, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“You dwell, my Lord Jesus, in the Holy Eucharist. You are here, within a few feet of me, in the tabernacle… How close you are, my God, my Savior, my Jesus… Saint Mary Magdalene was no nearer to you when she sat at your feet in Bethany than I am at the foot of the […]

Our Personal Mission from God

August 16, 2011 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“God has created me to do him some definite service; he has committed some work to me which he has not committed to another. I have my mission – I never may know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next. Somehow I am necessary for his purposes, as necessary […]

Can God forgive our gravest sins?

Sometimes people ask if God can really forgive our most grievous sins — He not only can, but He actually does, if we ask for forgiveness. In this video, I share some stories of people who were notorious sinners — some would say “monsters” — who experienced the grace of forgiveness from the Infinite Mercy […]

One Soul at a Time

Over the past year, we have seen a several signs of hope regarding the sanctity of every human life, and suffered a few setbacks as well. On the positive side, the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned the infamous Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey decisions, rejecting the notion that there is a federal […]

November – Month of the Poor Souls

One of the spiritual works of mercy is to “pray for the living and the dead.” We usually remember that we should pray for the living, because they are around us, seen by us, and their needs are often apparent to our eyes. But do we remember to pray for the dead, for the souls […]

Our Lady, Terror of Demons

We are in a war, a spiritual war. The Christian life is a constant war against the world, the flesh, and the devil. But what does that mean? We are at war with “the world” in its fallen state, in which the world around us, fallen and prone-to-evil human society, attempts to lead us away […]
