REFLECTION ON THE DAILY GOSPEL 11 APRIL 2013

speaking the word of God

“For the one whom God sent speaks the words of God.” Those that speak the word of God, don’t even have to speak it sometimes. Just look at them, a mention of their name and you can see they radiate God’s will and His presence in them. Let us pray for the humility, charity and courage to make progress in our own journeys towards Him.

REFLECTION ON THE DAILY GOSPEL “You must be born anew of the Spirit” 9 April 2013

 

Let the wind blow into the hearts of those in need,

A warm wind, refreshing, spring like, gentle on soft skin.

Death here, is now but a fleeting sign post, to an eternal presence,

Where sun shines, this gentle wind blows all day,

Like the sea breeze on the beach, drenching our souls in His love.

Oh, what joy this task for me, the handmaiden of the Lord.

Expressionless, I sit as divine words drizzle upon me,

Grace from heaven, wetting my soul.

I carry within, the world’s most needed cargo,

“May it be done”, and use me as a vessel of His love.

I was a scared, young woman, but with Him, I have nothing to fear.
