In our reflections on the care of our soul and our spiritual wellness, we have previously seen that, due to the wrong choice of our ancestors, we human beings inherit from birth the symptoms of a broken heart that are commonly referred to as “emotional wounds”.
These will often manifest themselves with negative feelings of:
Fear (the need to feel secure);
Insecurity (the need to feel protected);
Guilt (the need to be justified);
Low self-esteem (the need for a sense of value);
Inferiority complex (the need to feel unique and important);
Contempt for oneself (the need to redeem …

We recently started to write articles on the healing of the broken heart, to reflect upon and learn how to take proper care of our soul, by addressing the causes of our emotional wounds that often prevent us from living in line with our deepest values.
If we would take a poll, asking: “What’s your most important value in life?”, I’m sure that most people would answer that it’s LOVE! … mostly meaning love for their loved ones.
The responses would most probably come in various forms, since we each have our …

A bit over a week ago I wrote an introducing article on “the healing of the heart“, as that’s something that we all need! In some way or another, at a certain time and place in our lives, we have all been inflicted emotional wounds that are not setting us free to love, understand and forgive others, as we would want to be loved, understood and forgiven.
These wounds in the heart, if not properly cured and brought through the healing process, can actually become worse, bringing disastrous consequences even to …

This has been a particular and special week for those of us who have been watching and following the events in Haiti, and we just can’t stop thanking and praising God for the many miracles of lives rescued alive, even after 10 or more days under the rubble that has terribly hit that nation! The whole world has been watching those who came out alive from under the rubble and screamed: “Thank You Jesus!”
This was the fulfillment of a promise that the Lord had spoken to us on January 15, …

For many years my wife and I have used the last day of the year for a spiritual exercise that has been a guiding light for our lives, and each year we like to repeat this as sort of a ritual, whether we are alone or with friends on New Year’s Eve!
As the New Year approaches, it’s a great time to take stock of the past year and set goals for the next. So, on December 31, we take some time to reflect on the past year, taking into consideration three areas of …

After being away for almost three weeks, visiting friends in Canton Ticino (Italian speaking area of Switzerland), we are finally back home, after driving a whole day through highways and mountains filled with snow. We’re tired but happy to have it made it safely home.
I must confess that in the morning I was hesitating from starting on the 600 km drive back home, because of the news of the traffic being blocked on parts of the highways, due to the ice that was forming on the pavement and causing …

Most of my faithful readers know that I regularly post the “Words From Jesus” that I receive from the Lord daily. These are what I personally call the spiritual “hot cakes” that are being served to me daily and fresh from God’s Heavenly bakery.
For years I enjoyed these by myself, and often I would share them with my wife, but a few months ago I was encouraged by one of my dearest friends on the web, dr. Randy Peck, whom I have never met personally, but have had many …

About three years ago, while conducting a community of young people who needed lots of care and attention, the Lord started to speak to my heart regarding the needs of those who lived in distant places and were not able to regularly receive the spiritual nourishment that they were hungry for. He made me feel the aching of their hungry hearts, but the pressing responsibilities of that time made it difficult for us to visit them more often.
This was not easy for me, as I really wanted to do God’s will and …

Last week was a very important one, non only for us, but especially for what God intends to do here in Italy, as on Friday we started to broadcast again our regular Online Webinars to “Heal Broken Hearts“, and the reaction of the participants was phenomenal!  People were touched and hearts were healed throughout the evening, as it was testified by the wonderful reactions that were shared during the event. We passed the mic around and it was difficult to get it back, as everyone had a testimony to share! What …

Summer is clearly over and fall has been all around us, with the alternating of cold spells and warm air coming from the south, accompanied by rains that are flooding the fields. These are just a few of the signs of a season that is changing and we hope that it will bring some “positive” changes also in our lives…
Unfortunately we usually don’t associate the season of fall with “positive” changes, because what we see is that, after the harvesting of the fruits of the earth, creation is starting to …
