“What great benefits you receive from God when you are generous! You give a coin and receive a kingdom; you give wheat bread and receive the Bread of Life; you give something temporary and receive something eternal. Everything you give will be returned to you a hundredfold.” (St. Thomas of Villanova)

Life has been manifested
NOTE: I would like to devote the daily meditations of the next few weeks to systematically working through a biblical book again. On this occasion, I have chosen the Letters of St John. However, those who prefer – or would additionally like – to listen to a meditation that corresponds to the biblical readings of the day, can find the respective links at the end of the text.
1 Jn 1,1-4
“We declare to you what was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life. This life was revealed, and we have seen it and testify to it, and declare to you the eternal life that was with the Father and was revealed to us. We declare to you what we have seen and heard so that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. We are writing these things so that our joy may be complete.”
