Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily
Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Memorial of Saint Peter Claver
Do It All With Jesus
“O Lord, my will is Yours. Do Your
work in me.” (Elizabeth) (April 8, 1962)
Today’s Readings: Let the word of Christ dwell in you
richly,
as in all wisdom you teach and admonish one
another,
singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs
with gratitude in your hearts to God.
And whatever you do, in word or in deed,
do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God the Father through him.
(Colossians 3)
Prayer Meditation- Lord Jesus, we love You. Lord today we are reminded that no matter what we do each day, our work and our leisure time, we are to do everything in Your Name and with gratitude. In fact, You told Elizabeth Kindelmann that we must share in Your Work of Redemption totally united to You and without interruption (March4-7 1962). You want to do everything through us united to You- that laundry we need to do, that report we need to finish, that grandchild that needs babysitting, that volunteer time at Church. All of it united to You for Your Glory and to bring mercy, salvation, and sanctification of all souls. You came to Earth and redid all of our human acts and work in Your Divine Will- You sanctified the work of our hands. Lord Jesus, breathe in our breathing, speak in our speaking, think in our thinking, work in our working- not in our wills but in Yours!
