“What do I desire to achieve with this work of love, if not to find hearts able to understand Me?” (Message of God the Father to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio)

I KNOW YOUR HEART
“I know your heart and I know that you love me. That alone counts, for love forgives much!” (Inner Word)
These words of the Father remind us of that golden phrase attributed to St. Augustine: “Love and do what you want”.
NOT TO LOSE HEART
In prayer, I heard one day these words: “Do not lose heart when evil seems to triumph. These are Pyrrhic victories, fictitious victories, after which comes defeat and the definitive separation between good and evil.”
When we notice how evil seems to triumph in the world and around us, the temptation is great that we become despondent, lose heart and thus indirectly give evil even more influence. But it should not be so! Read More
GIVE THANKS WITH JOY
“Give thanks with joy to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in light” (Col 1:12).
THE VICTORY OF LOVE
We continue meditating on chapter 17 of the Gospel of St. John. Before the hour of His Passion comes, Jesus turns to the Father and says: “I have glorified you on earth by finishing the work that you gave me to do” (Jn 17:4).
THE DELICACY OF LOVE
To live in an intimate relationship with God the Father, as He desires and even asks, carries with it a great responsibility on our part.
GOD STRENGTHENS ME
“I can do all things in him who strengthens me” (Phil 4:13).
With these words, St. Paul expresses how, in all the situations of his apostolic life, he found a way out because he knew how to face them in the Lord. In this way, he also gives us the wise counsel to trust in God firmly and unwaveringly.
THE FATHER ADDRESSES THE YOUTH
To serve our Heavenly Father means to take part in His loving concern for mankind. He excludes no one from His love. However, man can close himself off from this love. This is precisely what the Father wants to avoid, and to this end He calls His “apostles” to bear true witness to Him.
GOD’S TREASURE IN US
God created us from nothing. His only motivation was His love for us. That is why He created man in the image of Himself (Gen 1:27) and clothed him with great dignity.
ASK IN THE NAME OF JESUS
“Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them” (Mt 18:19-20).
Jesus invites us to live in true unity with Him. He Himself is the foundation of this unity, because our Father has made Him the link between all humanity. Read More
