378th Meditation
“Anyone who attaches himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him” (1 Cor 6:17).
What a wonderful invitation to become one spirit with our Father: to think like Him, to act like Him, to allow ourselves to be entirely formed by Him and to become like Him! Mission impossible? No! Read More
2 Tim 4:6-8.17-18
‘As for me, my life is already being poured away as a libation, and the time has come for me to depart. I have fought the good fight to the end; I have run the race to the finish; I have kept the faith; all there is to come for me now is the crown of uprightness which the Lord, the upright judge, will give to me on that Day; and not only to me but to all those who have longed for his appearing. But the Lord stood by me and gave me power, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed for all the gentiles to hear; and so I was saved from the lion’s mouth. The Lord will rescue me from all evil attempts on me, and bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.’
Mt 7:15-20
‘Beware of false prophets who come to you disguised as sheep but underneath are ravenous wolves. You will be able to tell them by their fruits. Can people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? In the same way, a sound tree produces good fruit but a rotten tree bad fruit. A sound tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor a rotten tree bear good fruit.
377th Meditation
“I bless you, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, for hiding these things from the learned and the clever and revealing them to little children. Yes, Father, for that is what it pleased you to do” (Mt 11:25-26).
This is how our Father has arranged it in His wisdom. Read More
376th Meditation
“God is treating you as his sons. Has there ever been any son whose father did not train him?” (Heb 12:7).
At first these words may sound frightening to some. But this fright is not justified, because our Father wants nothing more than to give us the formation we need to reach our goal. Read More
Mt 7:6,12-14
‘Do not give dogs what is holy; and do not throw your pearls in front of pigs, or they may trample them and then turn on you and tear you to pieces. So always treat others as you would like them to treat you; that is the Law and the Prophets.
Mt 7:1-5
Do not judge, and you will not be judged; because the judgements you give are the judgements you will get, and the standard you use will be the standard used for you. Why do you observe the splinter in your brother’s eye and never notice the great log in your own? And how dare you say to your brother, “Let me take that splinter out of your eye,” when, look, there is a great log in your own? Hypocrite! Take the log out of your own eye first, and then you will see clearly enough to take the splinter out of your brother’s eye. Read More
375th Meditation
“The time is propitious, do not lose this love which is being offered to your hearts so tangibly” (Father’s message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).
We live in the time of grace, in the so-called “Kairos”. The door to the Heart of God is wide open thanks to His Son. It is open to all men, if they accept God’s invitation and turn to Him. But in addition to this time of grace for mankind in general, the Lord grants us again and again moments of particular grace. Read More
Mt 10:26-33
At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: do not be afraid of them. Everything now covered up will be uncovered, and everything now hidden will be made clear. What I say to you in the dark, tell in the daylight; what you hear in whispers, proclaim from the housetops.
374th Meditation
Having completed the series of meditations on how to know, honour and love the Heavenly Father more deeply, it is fitting to hear from His own mouth why He asks these three things of us. In the Message of God the Father to Sister Eugenia Ravasio, it says:
“I am asking of man what he is able to give Me: his confidence, his love and his gratitude. It is not because I need My creature and his adoration that I desire to be known, honoured and loved; the only reason why I am stooping down to him is to save him and give him a share in My glory. Read More
