Feast Day: 9 November The Road to Happiness Nothing’s greater than a pure heart, because such a heart becomes the throne of God. And what’s more glorious than the throne of God? Absolutely nothing.

We don’t have experience of our death. No-one’s lived through their biological death and can tell us what it means. Nobody can tell us what we’ll go through when ...
