DAY 9 : “TO REKINDLE IN THE WORLD LOVE THAT DIES OUT”
Meditation of Marthe :
“A soul can only give the others what overflows from it, only the surplus given to it.” “Thanks to Jesus, over all thanks to our good Mother, I know, better and better, how to dissimulate all that reminds that I am sick, and not to say anything about the evils I ceaselessly suffer and of which I talk very little. I want everything around me and in me to radiate harmony, holy contentment, joy and huge goodness of the heart.” “Kindness is the charity that gives itself, the patience that bears, the strength and the peace that are transmitted from one heart to everybody's hearts…. Joy is the radiant disposition of the soul turned towards its God.”
What should I draw from this today ?
To love, first let's welcome the Love of God within us. It will show us how to love concretely, how to take care of the others with delicacy, how to serve with joy, how to share human warmth, goodness, benevolence, how to show compassion, welcome the others as they are, accompany them, pray for them. All this life of love is within our reach. Let's learn how to develop the flower of gratitude, how to train ourselves to the joy that radiates and warms up, how to live this concrete and daily love that ‘divinises' our humanity: it is the way to holiness proposed by Marthe.
