Words whispered in my heart.
You think you are building my Church
With all your hectic activity.
But in reality you are not helping me at all
You are hindering my true work on earth.
All I want,
All I need,
Is for you to
Come and stand
At the foot of my Son’s Cross.
And
Let the fire of His Love
Pierce your Heart,
Transforming you into
His Presence on Earth .

Thanks, Melanie. I liked the last image especially, the one with the heart on fire. Being consumed but giving light.

Happy to be part of you family! 🙂
Please say a little prayer for me tonight as yesterday was the 6 months anniversary of Little Josephine’s passing, and it’s hard. Want to write about it but haven’t managed yet.

my heart and prayers are with you- i cannot begin to imagine the pain- just know that you are still her mother; she is on the other side of a thin veil- and when you re asked how many kids you have, she is among that number

Yes, I say six now. And I talk to her, and ask her to help me. The kids are so good at knowing how close she is to us, and how happy she is. For them, Heaven has become so concretely real and close.
Thank you for your kindness, Melanie.

Beautiful! I find that it’s no coincidence that we often hear these words of invitation to draw closer, when we have chosen to make time and space for God in our lives. He’s these waiting for us, all the while 🙂
