Actually, I had already finished the daily interpretation of the Scriptures – the reading of the day – and was about to record it with sound. Then I noticed that I had confused the year of reading and had to think of something different, because I had already sent the interpretation of the Gospel of the day last year. Read More

The importance of the vocation
St. Clare
Mt 19, 27-29
Then Peter answered and said, ‘Look, we have left everything and followed you. What are we to have, then?’ Jesus said to them, ‘In truth I tell you, when everything is made new again and the Son of man is seated on his throne of glory, you yourselves will sit on twelve thrones to judge the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses, brothers, sisters, father, mother, children or land for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times as much, and also inherit eternal life. Read More
To disregard life”
Jn 12,24-26 (Reading for the Feast of St. Lawrence)
In all truth I tell you, unless a wheat grain falls into the earth and dies, it remains only a single grain; but if it dies it yields a rich harvest. Anyone who loves his life loses it; anyone who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. Whoever serves me, must follow me, and my servant will be with me wherever I am. If anyone serves me, my Father will honour him. Read More
Zealous love
Rom 9, 1- 5
This is the truth and I am speaking in Christ, without pretence, as my conscience testifies for me in the Holy Spirit; there is great sorrow and unremitting agony in my heart: I could pray that I myself might be accursed and cut off from Christ, if this could benefit the brothers who are my own flesh and blood.

Memorial of St. Dominic
- Cor 2, 2-10
Now when I came to you, brothers, I did not come with any brilliance of oratory or wise argument to announce to you the mystery of God. I was resolved that the only knowledge I would have while I was with you was knowledge of Jesus, and of him as the crucified Christ. Read More

Summary
The father speaks to his children, Part 38
We have come to the end of the reflections on the Father’s message and I very much hope that our Father’s words and the corresponding meditations have helped to make our Father’s love for us more transparent and to invite us to give our response to his love. Read More
Our heart as God’s resting place
The father speaks to his children, Part 37
In today’s text of the Father Book, the heavenly Father reveals an ardent desire to which I would like to subscribe. The thirty-nine reflections related to the revelation of the Father to Sr. Eugenia have an essential goal: to find hearts in which God our Father can dwell, in which he is at home. Read More
True children of God
The father speaks to his children, Part 36
Yesterday we reflected on true peace and freedom, which can only be realized as a gift from God and become possible in accordance with God’s commandments. The Father’s words made it clear that only within His law can we live our existence fully and not come into conflict with God and ourselves. Read More
True peace and freedom
The father speaks to his children, Part 35
How great is the longing for peace! But peace alone is not enough, it is about a true peace that cannot be broken immediately. Without devaluing all serious efforts for peace, there is more at stake. For like everything that is given to us human beings, true peace also comes from God. It is the same with the striving for freedom. Read More
