THE BURNING EMBERS OF HIS HEART

He lifts the veil and I realize the immensity of His love. I envision the burning embers of His Heart. I rested so deeply in His Heart. I envision the glow going in and out from darkness to light. He keeps a constant vigilance for us.

I felt the burning flames of His love from darkness to light. They went in and out with a red hue. It was a burning movement of a flame that went in and out.

My heart is so warm. Such an experience! My heart burns with deepest love of Him. I feel my heart now.

I begged Him to let me unite with Him in the highest union at every moment of my life. I long for Him, for Him alone, and this deep union with Him.

Song, "In the deepest recesses of His Heart…"

I am so aware of the pulling in my heart like an ache, but not painful. I long for deep, deep, deep union with Him, I long to be so one in Him, so deeply embedded in His Heart.

I realize from reading Mother at My Side, that Mary is our prayer partner. A mother is always there. She is attentive to her child. She feels the child's pain. She is so joined to her child.

Mary is there, she is more than I can imagine, attentive to my every care. She is indeed my Mother. I do not have any fear if I realize her constant love and care, that someone constantly loves and cares for me. I know her constant motherly presence with me.

It is in realizing this constant, motherly love that I am set free from fear and can rest so tenderly in His Heart.

How do I write what I feel? Mary, my Mother, help me to know your constant presence with me and your constant motherly care and love for me! I know this is the secret to my resting deeply in His Heart.

It was through Mary that Christ came. He was in Mary's womb. The connection between Them is so deep in the rosary meditations. It is in meditating on Their lives that I see this deep union between Their two Hearts. It is in Mary that I will feel secure and know His love.

All these years I've missed my earthly mother who died when I was five years old. Now I know I have my heavenly Mother forever with me, leading me in deepest union with her Son! Her role as my spiritual Mother is to help me to unite more and more deeply in Him.
