THE HOLY WORD OF GOD

125th Meditation

“Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them” (Ps 119:140).

The Word of God has been given to us so that through it we may have life. It is different from merely human words. It has the power to illuminate our whole life and to transform us. It is the Lord Himself who communicates to us through His Word. Indeed, God speaks to us and thus gives us access to His own being. Through the words that come from His Heart, He grants us an encounter with His love. Read More

LOVE GROWS

123rd Meditation on God the Father

“The more you respond to my love, the more love you will receive” (Interior Word).

It is proper that love would grow the more space it is given. Therefore, the more we welcome the love of our Father within us, and the more we seek it, the more He will be able to communicate it to us.

Let us keep in mind that God’s love is unlimited, while our capacity to love is limited. When our Father dwells in us, He illuminates and warms our hearts with the power of the Holy Spirit. Read More

122nd Meditation

“Do not overburden yourselves or burden yourselves with unnecessary worries – let me take care of everything! I want you totally pure and sincere, walking hand in hand with the Father like children, without worrying about what tomorrow will bring” (Inner Word).

Unconcern-not to be confused with naivety or lack of responsibility-is founded on trust in God and confers a special radiance to the path of following Christ. It often goes hand in hand with a certain joy and serenity, which even in the most difficult situations does not fade. Read More

“O Lord, you search me and know me, you know when I sit, when I rise, you understand my thoughts from afar. You watch when I walk or lie down, you know every detail of my conduct. A word is not yet on my tongue before you, O Lord, know all about it” (Ps 138:1-4). Read More

THE FATHER IS OUR FRIEND

120th Meditation on God the Father

THE LORD RENEWS HIS LOVE

119th Meditation

“The Lord your God is in your midst, the warrior-Saviour. He will rejoice over you with happy song, he will renew you by his love, he will dance with shouts of joy for you” (Zeph 3:17).

Our Heavenly Father addresses these words to His chosen people and particularly to Jerusalem. He wants to have compassion and renew His love, in spite of all the transgressions of the people. Read More
