Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Monday of the Thirty Fourth Week of Ordinary Time
Seeking the Face of God
While getting ready to go to bed for the night, I prostrated myself one last time before the image of His Holy Face. (Elizabeth) (May 28, 1964)
Today’s Readings: He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, a reward from God his savior. Such is the race that seeks for him, that seeks the face of the God of Jacob. (Psalm 24)
Prayer Meditation- O Lord, we read today in the first reading from Revelation about those in Heaven who contemplate Your Face for all Eternity. Lord, we struggle here on Earth and You seem so far away at times- we see as through a glass darkly (1 Corinthians 13). Lord the Gospel today teaches us one way through the darkness- total self- surrender of all that we are, just like the poor widow who gave not from her surplus but all that she had. (Luke 21). Lord, help us always to seek Your Face- in the good and the bad, in joys and sorrows, in the valley and on the mountaintop because You are there through all of it and You will never let us go!
