It is free, helps our ratings, and thus helps us reach and help more people.This session is one of our readings from the teachings of St. Sharbel, a Lebanese monk who died on Christmas Eve in 1898. He became renowned for his intercession for healing of various sicknesses and other conditions, including very serious conditions.  Over 26,000 healing have been credited to his intercession.  If you go to Mexico there are shrines to him all over. If you ask why there are so many roadside shrines to a Lebanese monk, they will simply say, “It works.” His intercession works. But he is also a spiritual master.  His homilies are collected in a book called Love is a Radiant Light. I thought it would be helpful for you if I began a series of readings of some selections from his homilies.  I hope they provide some valuable insight for you.
