“The horse leaves his dung in the stable and, although it is dirty and stinking, he himself carries it with great effort to the field, from which then sprouts good wheat and noble and sweet wine, which would never grow if it were not for the dung. So, carry with effort and diligence your dung—that is, those weaknesses that you cannot discard or overcome—into the field of God’s loving will with a serene attitude. Undoubtedly, a delicious fruit will grow from it in humble serenity.” (John Tauler)

THE GREATEST SECURITY
“The greatest security we can have in this life consists in the pure and irrevocable surrender of our whole being into the hands of God, as well as in the unwavering decision never to commit, under any circumstances, any sin, whether great or small. Our security does not depend on whether or not we feel God’s love. The great security lies only in what has been said above” (Letter of St. Francis de Sales to St. Jeanne de Chantal).
TO CONSOLE AND LOVE THE FATHER
“I would also like (…) that you could dedicate half an hour a day to console and love Me” (Message of God the Father to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).
This is a request that our Father addresses to Mother Eugenia, but as she adds, it is what He desires from all His children: half an hour.
OUR FATHER MAKES AMENDS FOR WHAT WE HAVE FAILED TO DO
“When you sincerely confess your mistakes, omissions, and shortcomings, you make Me happy as if you had entrusted Me with a treasure. As soon as your soul opens up, My Spirit takes possession of it unobtrusively but victoriously. What could I not repair if I am left to act? Then I am pleased to adorn your soul according to My taste.” (Words of Jesus to the mystic Louisa Jaques)
GOD HAS THE BEST PLAN
‘The only reason to fear surrendering your life to God is if you believe that you have a better plan’ (Esther Maria Magnis).
THE INFINITE GOODNESS OF GOD
“Everyone must recognize My infinite goodness, a goodness directed toward all, especially sinners, the sick, the dying, and all who suffer” (Message of God the Father to Sister Eugenia Ravasio).
THE HOLY SPIRIT WITHIN US
“The work of the third person of My divinity takes place silently, and often man does not even notice it.” (From the message of God the Father to Madre Eugenia Ravasio)
In His message to Madre Eugenia, the Heavenly Father now goes on to explain how He wishes to dwell in the souls who are in a state of grace. The indwelling of God is the infinitely great gift to those who have received and responded to the message of salvation. It changes everything, for with it the soul can be led to all good under the influence of the Holy Spirit.
THE GATE OF SALVATION
“The cross is My way to descend to My children, for through the cross I let you be redeemed by My Son. And for you the cross is the way by which you can ascend to My Son and through My Son to Me. Without the cross you could never come to Me, for man has brought separation upon himself as a punishment through sin.” (From God the Father’s message to M. Eugenia Ravasio.)
INCURABLE WOUND OF DEMONS!
“In the fruit of the woman’s womb, the Lord not only gave us a Savior who conquered death by death; He also gave us, in the woman herself—the perpetual Virgin and Mother of God, Mary—an unceasing intercessor with her Son, our God. She crushed, and continues to crush, the head of the serpent in every generation of humanity. She is an invincible and unconquerable protector, even of the most desperate sinners. The Mother of God is therefore also called the “Incurable Wound of Demons,” for the demon cannot corrupt a person unless that person first refrains from seeking refuge in the help of the Mother of God.” (St. Seraphim of Sarov)
PROOFS OF OUR LOVE
“The time to prove our love is short, and we only have one life” (St. Maximilian Kolbe).
You are right, dear Maximilian Kolbe. Time is short and we are often lazy and slow to do good. This is because we do not yet love our Heavenly Father enough, and we fail to understand the incredible opportunity we have to be a light in the midst of darkness, thus honoring God and serving mankind. Indeed, every day is a gift to prove our love.
