78th Meditation on God the Father
“[When you receive the Sacred Host] I fill you with My love. Then you have only to ask Me for the virtues and perfection you need and you can be sure that in those moments when God is reposing in His creatures, nothing will be refused you” (Message of God the Father to Sister Eugenia Ravasio).

77th Meditation on God the Father
“Seek souls who will commit themselves wholeheartedly for My glory and honour, and who will willingly give Me this resting place.” (Message of God the Father to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio)
When we have opened the doors of our heart to the Heavenly Father and He gives Himself to us, when we begin to enjoy the delight of intimate communion with Him, then our Father turns our gaze to other people, for they too are called to share in this unspeakable grace of living as true children of God.

76th Meditation on God the Father
“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)
During the last few days, we spoke in the “3 minutes for Abba” about the human heart, which the Lord knows even in its most remote corners. In the short passage we heard today from the Father’s Message, we are told that He is looking for hearts that are able to understand Him. Read More
75th Meditation on God the Father
“I know your heart and I know that you love me. That alone counts, for love forgives much!” (Inner Word)

74th Meditation on God the Father
“You created my inmost self, knit me together in my mother’s womb. For so many marvels I thank you; a wonder am I, and all your works are wonders” (Ps 139:13-14).
Can we utter this thanksgiving to God with a free heart and in one voice with the psalmist? We should be able to, because our Father put all His love into creating man, and this counts for each and every one of us. Read More
73rd Meditation on God the Father
“A word is not yet on my tongue before you, Lord, know all about it” (Ps 139:4).
From the time when thoughts arise within us until we utter them in words, there is still a way for us to restrain them, so that no word may come from our lips that would displease our Father. Read More
“You understand my thoughts from afar” (Ps 139:2b).
Our Father’s loving omniscience is not only a comforting certainty for us; it becomes a spiritual lesson for us, if we allow His words to permeate us deeply. Read More
“Lord, you examine me and know me” (Ps 139:1).
No one but God knows the heart of man in its deepest depths. No one can even examine his own heart in depth, unless it is revealed to him in the light of the Spirit of God. Read More
“I Myself have placed in the hearts of men the search for Me, and I Myself am the answer” (Inner Word).
Why does man seek?
Because the Father Himself has placed this longing in his heart and, according to the unforgettable words of St. Augustine, “our heart is restless until it rests in You” (Confessions, I, 1). Read More
“As long as you remain in my heart, you will be under my divine protection. Even if the powers of darkness rise up, they will achieve nothing” (Inner Word).
Our Father offers us His Heart as a refuge, for against Him the powers of darkness can achieve nothing. They attack man in order to confuse him and, if possible, to seize his grace. But if we remain in the Heart of God, their efforts will be in vain. Read More
