Moment of Reflection
SOME SAINTS imposed as MISSIONARIES OF PATIENCE OR MERCY OF GOD.:
LET'S SEE:
S. Margaret of Cortona
Attracted by the Savior and call, a little clean life, intimacy Divine
is constituted by Providence as the NETWORK OF SINNERS.
S. Angela de Folinho
It is contemporary of S. Margaret of Cortona.
It, like her, somewhat mundane, before conversion.
At age 40, understands all the love of Christ and gives himself totally to Him
According to biographers write about, it is said that once the Lord Jesus revealed His love
saying: DO NOT LOVED PLAYING!
S. Catherine of Siena
But these two messengers of Kindness Celeste
are completed and until superseded by another extraordinary woman: CATHERINE OF SIENA.
Born of Benincasa in Fontebranda (Italy) on March 25, 1347 and died at age 33,
on April 29, 1380, Catherine, with delicate psychological intuition,
scatters light rays on the path of Christian perfection,
preaching and praising, everywhere, the superabundant power of Divine Love,
revealed to us in His beloved Son Jesus Christ.
Also the 381 letters of this holy, bring all this sublime and dynamic presence of Christ
that in His Blood washed the world and imprinted on it a providential movement for love.
Catherine reads:
"O Love invaluable, with what this life PATIENCE
borrow and the time and waits the creature mend your life. "
"Sweet Love, opens us, opens us to receive memory,
to revive MUCH GOODNESS OF GOD and to understand
and, understanding, and love, love, we find ourselves united and transformed by love. "
S. Margaret Mary Alacoque
Given the importance of our theme and the abundance of the revelations,
we can not stop talking about another great apostola the Infinite Mercy of God:
S. Margaret Mary Alacoque.
According to biographers, she would have had some revelations
about 30, of which the most important are the first four.
In these moments of grace experienced by Santa, since the year 1673 until 1690,
year of his death, Margaret had been patiently educated by Christ
even to understand and disseminate the fullness of His infinite charity towards men,
and was named to constitute this apostola MESSAGE OF MERCY,
also collaborating with mortification and penance.
Lucy Filippini
In 1672, the city of Tarquinia, was born a girl: Lucy. As new Catherine of Siena
Lucia works tirelessly to bring everywhere the Gospel of Patience of God and His love that pardons,
enjoy doing, to the lost women found
and recovered in the city of Rome, how great the Divine Mercy.
The center of all this action is precisely the missionary ineffable love of God, diffused in our hearts.
S. Therese of the Child Jesus
These thoughts lead us to a secret report of S. Therese of the Child Jesus (1873-1897).
The Little Flower of Lisieux wrote:
"I will reveal to you one of my most intimate secrets:
Yes, I believe, long ago, that the Lord is more tender than a mother.
The mother is always ready to forgive the sins of your boy. So God does with us.
And I have such a nature that, while fear makes me recoil, the love of God,
on the contrary, not only makes me move, but fly.
So, my way of living is to be always happy, always smiling,
is when I fall, when I reach such a victory! "
Before ending, yet we hear S. Augustine, who,
with a supremely pastoral enthusiasm, so one ends his book.
"Mortals, your God does not want the death of the one who offended,
but wants the sinner turn to Him and live. Goodness Almighty lifted up His throne on earth
to the advantage of all and invites everyone to save themselves under His shadow.
The time of life is given to us for this.
THE MERCY FORGIVE HIM WHO uses.
SHE PAID THE DEBTS WE HAVE TO JUSTICE SOVEREIGN.
Whatever the day that the wicked shoots his arms,
MIERICÓRDIA the welcomes, protects and saves.
Each theme, but only subject to lose their God and not return to His love.
Do not imitate Augustine who turned away from His love, but who imitated me in my deviations,
Now run to the feet of God to His cry all its faults,
for him to be loving and tender to the grave. "
(Cf. La Pazienza di Dio)
Dear Brothers and Sisters, remember us sinners and the poor:
believe in the love of God, that is, above all, BELIEVE IN YOUR FORGIVENESS!
What beautiful examples give us these Saints. They believed in His mercy
and preached to convert other siblings. As they believe in Divine Mercy
and evangelize the poor sinners. -
The Blessing of God Almighty, Father, Son and Holy Spirit descend upon you
and stroke His Infinite Mercy on your beloved family and stay forever. - Amen.
