TAKE YOUR MISSION SERIOUSLY

"'…Prepare a way for the Lord, make his paths straight.'" (Mt. 3:3) Our Lord was baptized by John the Baptist. The Holy Spirit came upon Him.

Jesus is with us this day. He is not so far off that we cannot talk to Him. He remains with us and attentive to all our needs, every moment - He is with us!

Jesus does not want us to worry or be anxious but to become close to Him and put our trust in Him.

I am touched with such emotion reading the Scriptures for to know Him is to know my Father.

He has taught me so much because He loves me so much.

I love my Father so much. It is He Who has allowed me to get so close to Jesus and revealed such things to me through the Holy Spirit.

I love God with the deepest love. I love my Father so. Quietly, He cares and loves me, and I am so blind. I do not see the constancy of His love. I do not see Him giving me life. The Spirit remains in me, giving me such burning love of God, melting me, molding me more and more into the image of Jesus, and I do not see the workings of God in my life. I am so ungrateful!

He is truly here within me and I am so unworthy and in need of much reform, but He loves me anyway and continues to give me great graces of His love.
