July 21, 2010 (Mat 11:28-30) Come to me all you that labor and are burdened, and I will refresh you. Take up my yoke upon you, and learn of me, because I am meek, and humble of heart: And you shall find rest to your souls. For my yoke is sweet and my burden light.

My dearest Lord Jesus, yesterday in the gospel for the Mass You invited us, You encouraged us to come to You. So many do not know about this invitation. They do not realize that You want us to experience the incredible love that God has not only for You but for each one of us. You want us to know that Your Father loves us in the same way and to the same degree as He loves You. That is why You reveal to us that He is Your Abba – that is, Your daddy. You strive to tell us that He is our Abba too. As You accepted this relationship always, so You want us to accept this relationship. You want us to be open to His love perfectly. And so You urge us to come to You to help us to accept His love – and, of course, His Mercy. You have revealed to us that only You are the Way to the Father. You tell us that You will give to us all that we need to accept You as the Way. You tell us that You will give to us Your Holy Spirit who will teach us how to live as You live under the guidance of the Father’s love. Your Abba is holy. You are holy. Your Spirit is holy. You want us to be holy – just as You Three are holy. And so You enable us to be holy. Moreover You enable us to resist all that prevents us from being holy. You teach us how to resist these temptations through prayer and fasting and alms-giving. You teach us through Your One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. You made us members of Your Church to enable us to become holy ourselves and to help others to become holy. You have commissioned us to teach other how to become holy by living as Your brothers and sisters – by doing everything that You ask of us. Lord Jesus, may I, may we listen to You and let You guide us. May we allow Your Holy Spirit to do all that You ask of us. Come Holy Spirit; enkindle within us the fire of Your Divine Love. VIA Dennis: A Child of God
I am a child of God and it is a fact that we all are. This would be a most wonderful world of we all knew this one simple but wonderful fact. I can recommend that you repeat this fact often as it can bring great power into your physical and spiritual life. Repeating “I am a child of God” can be used to overcome our day-to-day struggles and bring great joy at almost any time. Repeating it often can simplify any action or decision. Being a child of the Creator comes with a set of rules and actions that can be used as a template for almost anything in our lives. Most children like to be around those who love them. As a Child of God, we can be around the One who is love and who has a burning love for you. I can tell you from my experience that I have never felt closer to my Creator than when I think out of this fact. If you are like me and thought that “yes God loves me”, but always tried to run my ship of life with out Him, then I can tell you that you will regain a great peace in your life when your relationship with Him becomes like a child. Repeat this hundred of times each day. Soon each action will follow after thinking this fact. I am a Child of God and I see and breath. My heart beats and I can feel the heat of the sun on my face as a child of God. I can feel the cool rain as it tickles my nose as a child of God. How much more wonderful it will be to love and care and act in this world as a simple but wonderful creation of the Father? If you are searching for peace or an answer or a reason then it can be found there as a child. It has always been there but you didn't see it until you realized that you are a child of God.Ladder of Divine Ascent excerpt: Step 26- "On discernment of thoughts, passions, and virtues"
77. There is a certain feeling, or rather habit, called endurance of hardship. He who possesses it will never be cowardly, nor avoid labour. Upheld by this glorious virtue, the souls of the martyrs easily despised their tortures.Prayer request? Send an email to: PrayerRequest3@aol.com
