Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Tuesday of the First Week of Advent
To The Childlike
Jesus: “Do you know why I make you write about the different events in your life? Because these are reflections of My graces in your soul that you – I know it well – would never tell others. In this manner, I oblige you to write so all will see the Divine Work that I have done in your soul since your childhood. (Jesus) (July 24, 1965)
Today’s Readings: Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said,
“I give you praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
for although you have hidden these things
from the wise and the learned
you have revealed them to the childlike. (Luke 10)
Prayer Meditation- Lord, sometimes we can make things so complicated. We want to know everything but the reality is that You reveal Yourself to the childlike and the humble who turn to You in faith and trust. To them, and hopefully that is us, You have revealed the Kingdom of Heaven. You have been working in our souls since our baptism and You want us to remain Your little children totally dependent on You. Maybe this Advent it is time to strip any complexities from our lives, especially our faith lives, and go back to basics. Instead of piling on devotion after devotion, spiritual book after spiritual book, why don’t we read a chapter a day from the Gospels and pray the Rosary from the heart. Let us do it every day and help us to keep our eyes on You and our hand in Mary’s Hand as we await Your birth into our hearts anew this Advent.
