    On the cross Jesus said "Father , into your hands I commit my spirit." Why did Jesus have to say this and what do thee words teach us.

    Introductory Considerations 1. One of hardest things for us to do is to let go or give up that which means the most to us. 2.

All that is known for certain about Joseph comes from the Gospel narratives of Jesus’ burial. Though John speaks of Joseph as a secret disciple of our Lord, and associates ...read more

    It is interesting how people leave this life. Some scream, plead and curse. Others go confessing, some go stoically waiting for the inescapable. Most go with fear and hopelessness. Certainly not the case with our Lord and it need not be with us.
