Who’s my neighbor?
Did you know that being insensitive to the people around you can land you up in hell? Please read Matthew 25:31-46 to understand that.

As a result Mary got a new son in John, the thief on the cross entered the paradise and a roman centurion got saved!!

For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. I have the desire to do what is right, but end up doing the opposite, I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want, is what I keep on doing”
