In A Shower of Roses
“I am not sorry for delivering myself up to Love.” St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus (Last Conversations, “Yellow Notebook” 30th September 1897, the day of her death) Jesus longs to make you very happy, very, very happy now on this earth. He doesn't want to wait for heaven to fill you with happiness. But He needs you to open up the door of your heart, for you to surrender completely to Him…so that He can give Himself completely to you! Today, Thérèse is inviting you to surrender completely to Jesus. To give Him everything. Without being afraid of anything. Radically. Then…He can give himself to you completely!…you will never be sorry for having surrendered yourself to Love!

From the Act of Oblation to Merciful Love O my God! [..] In the evening of this life, I shall appear before you with empty hands, for I do not ask you, Lord, to count my works. All our justice is stained in your eyes. I wish, then, to be clothed in your own Justice and to receive from your Love the eternal possession of Yourself. I want no other Throne, no other crown but You, my Beloved! Amen. |
