YOU DO NOT KNOW ME AS I AM

107th Meditation on God the Father

 “The missionaries have spoken and still speak of God as far as they know Him, but I assure you, you do not know Me as I am, because I am coming to proclaim Myself the Father of all and the most tender of fathers, in order to transform your love, which has become distorted by fear” (Father’s Message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).

The words we heard yesterday from Father’s Message urged us to bear witness to “how sweet it is to live in truth”. The passage we meditate on today shows us how important it is to also transmit the right image of God. Read More

Job 38:1,12-21; 40:1-5

Then from the heart of the tempest the Lord gave Job his answer. He said: “Have you ever in your life given orders to the morning or sent the dawn to its post, to grasp the earth by its edges and shake the wicked out of it? She turns it as red as a clay seal, she tints it as though it were a dress, stealing the light from evil-doers and breaking the arm raised to strike. Read More

TO LIVE IN THE TRUTH

106th Meditation on God the Father

“You who are in the true light, tell them [mankind] how sweet it is to live in the truth!” (Father’s Message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).

This request springs from the depths of our Heavenly Father’s Heart and is addressed to all people who are in the true light. It is important to pay close attention to these words: only when we live in the “true light” are we able to give the witness that the world so urgently needs. Ambiguity only confuses people!

VICTORY OVER THE ENEMY

105th Meditation on God the Father

“Do you wish to gain victory over your enemy? Call upon Me and you will triumph over him” (Father’s Message to Sister Eugenia Ravasio).

In His Message, our Father does not leave aside the dimension of spiritual combat, because, in fact, we do have enemies. These are, first of all, the fallen angels, who try to include us in their rebellion against God or, at least, to hinder our journey with the Lord. Read More

THE HEALING OF OUR EXISTENCE

104th Meditation on God the Father

“Come, come closer to Me, you have every right to approach your Father; open up your hearts, pray to My Son that He may help you to know even better My goodness towards you!” (Father’s message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).

The ever deeper discovery of God’s goodness and mercy is of unimaginable importance, because to the person who knows that they are loved and accepted by Him, the great mystery of love that lies behind their life is revealed. It is the certainty of faith that enlightens our understanding and penetrates our hearts like a living light. In this way, our existence begins to be healed at its root. Read More

Following the traditional calendar, today we commemorate the martyrs Cosmas and Damian. Therefore, today we will listen to the reading corresponding to this memorial. In the following link you can also find a meditation based on the reading of the saint who is celebrated today in the new calendar, St. Vincent de Paul:

God chose the weak

Wis 5:15-20

But the upright live for ever, their recompense is with the Lord, and the Most High takes care of them. So they will receive the glorious crown and the diadem of beauty from the Lord’s hand; for he will shelter them with his right hand and with his arm he will shield them. Read More

VISIBLE SIGNS OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD

103rd Meditation on God the Father

“I also desire that every family prominently display the picture I will later show to My “little daughter”. I wish every family to be able to place itself under My special protection in this way, so that they can honour Me more easily” (Father’s message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).

The Father satisfies our human need to see and feel. Just as we often place pictures and photos of our loved ones in our home to make it easier to remember them, so our Father wants us to place an image of Him in our home. Read More
