A beautiful flower in our Father’s heart is His mercy. With it, and not with inflexible severity, He wants to judge the world. Mercy is His unsurpassable motivation to be ever vigilant and to go out again and again in search of men, so that they may open themselves to His love. Read More

“God created man in the image of himself, in the image of God he created him” (Gen 1:27).

This simple sentence is of unfathomable depth, for it answers man’s search for his true identity and is at the same time an eternal declaration of God’s love for us human beings. Read More

If we learn to love our Heavenly Father more and more, all idols will have to depart from us. If in the Old Covenant the Israelites had to renounce idols with determination and were strictly forbidden to pay homage to them, today too our Father wants to prevent us from going astray. Read More

To know our Father better means to love Him more. When the gifts of the Holy Spirit unfold in us, especially the gift of understanding and wisdom, we experience a stronger encounter with the love of our Father. It kindles in us a fire that can completely seize us. Then we also understand better the following words of the Father’s Message:  Read More

Our loving Father wants to dwell in our souls and build his temple in them. As St. Paul tells us, we are called to be the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 6:9). So it is not only the majestic and beautiful cathedrals where the Lord dwells in the tabernacle; but at all times and in all places we can find Him in our own heart, which becomes the tabernacle of His grace. Thus speaks the Father in the Message concerning the action of the Holy Spirit: Read More

The more we love Jesus, the more we love our Heavenly Father, who sent Him into the world. Everything we do to the glory and honour of the Son of God also glorifies the One from whom He proceeds. Through Jesus, we come to the Father (cf. Jn 14:6).

However, the Father desires to be honoured with an own feast and cult, even beyond the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. In his Message to Mother Eugenie, he expresses this desire which is so important to him:  Read More

14th Meditation on God the Father

It is important for the Lord that we know Him as He really is. Jesus Himself tries again and again to convey to us the true image of the Father. Indeed, it is only when we have the right image of Him that we can live in a trusting relationship with Him, just as He has intended for us. Then the joyful reality that God’s light spreads in this world shines forth, and Jesus’ words become a reality: “You are light for the world” (Mt 5:14). Read More

Our Father delights to be close to us men. He Himself assures us of this:

“Realize then, o men, that for all eternity I have had but one desire, to make Myself known to men and be loved by them. I wish to stay for ever with them!” Read More

God’s love embraces all people, whom he wants to bring to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim 2,4). We know the way he has chosen: it is His Son Jesus, who says of Himself: “I am the Way; I am Truth and Life. No one can come to the Father except through me” (Jn 1:6). Read More

God brings those who believe in Him into an ever deeper relationship with Him, and purifies them of all that hinders them from fully receiving His love. If they live in this trust that the Father asks of them, they will shine as “the light of the world” (Mt 5:14).

“And light shines in darkness…” (Jn 1:5). Read More
