Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Wednesday of the Eleventh Week of Ordinary Time
The Father Who Sees in Secret
During my work, I frequently enter my small room to adore and make reparation to the Lord Jesus who is present. These are secrets of my heart that I reveal to you. (Elizabeth) (July 17, 1965 )
Today’s Readings: But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door,
and pray to your Father in secret.
And your Father who sees in secret will repay you. (Matthew 5)
Prayer Meditation- Lord, so many of us have been called to isolation- maybe illness, caregiving, old age, a move to an area where no one knows us. For some it has been a wonderful opportunity to spend more time in prayer. For others, so used to be around people, it has been difficult. So many of us, even those in ministry, or especially those in ministry are used to being seen. But Lord could it be that the things we were doing really were not Your Will but done for human respect? Were we running around saying yes to everything because we did not know how to say no? You have not called us to be people pleasers- You have called us to be in greater union with You! Lord let us always cherish the opportunity we have to be in our small rooms in those seasons that can seem at first to be dark and let us continue to go there offering prayer and sacrifice for the salvation of souls so in need of Your Grace!
