Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Saturday of the Twenty First Week of Ordinary Time
Foolish, Weak, and Lowly
O my Jesus, blessed be Your Holy Name by which I came to be blessed. I, a lowly nothing! My Lord, my adored Jesus, it is also Your infinite goodness that proclaims Your glory. How good You are to keep my soul in constant humility! (Elizabeth) (January 13, 1966)
Today’s Readings: Rather, God chose the foolish of the world to shame the wise,
and God chose the weak of the world to shame the strong,
and God chose the lowly and despised of the world,
those who count for nothing,
to reduce to nothing those who are something,
so that no human being might boast before God. (1 Corinthians 1)
Prayer Meditation- O Lord, we love You, we bless You and we adore You because You choose the weak to shame the strong. In other words, in our nothingness, You choose us in Your Infinite Goodness for Your Glory and the salvation of souls. It is the little and the humble that You use as we bring our five loaves of bread and two fish, our Rosaries, our fasting, and our sacrifices for You to multiply allowing Your blessings and graces to fall on the whole world like celestial dew! O Lord, to the world we are foolish, weak and lowly but to You we are the instruments You use to spread the effects of grace of Thy Flame of Love over all humanity!
