YOU YOU AND
i, P102_103 Gabrielle Bossis
October 24 – 1940 – Holy Hour.
“Allow me, Lord,
to console You in Your agony as though I had been created for that alone.”
“Direct
everything in you to this end – all that I have given you, for it is I who gave
you everything – your heart, your understanding, your memory.
It is I who gave
you an imagination capable of stirring
your heart. Is it too much to expect that you will use My gifts for Me?
When you offer them I forget that I have given them to you. I receive them as
though they came from you, and My heart is so touched. If you only knew...? I
am like a happy father: ‘My little girl did that for Me.’ And I am much more
than an ordinary father. But only in heaven will you see these delicate touches
I’ve received from my children.
Let this encourage
you to live very close to Me, to find life impossible without Me. Let me share
everything. Disappear ceaselessly in My heart. And be sure that I’ll replace
you. Always act as though you saw Me, for I am really there. And aware of the
great yearning, the intense thirst that I have for souls, surrender yourself
unceasingly as though it were for the first time. For Me, it will always be
like a first joy to receive you.
Don’t get the
idea that it is the greatest number of prayers that touches your God. It’s the way you speak to Him. Be irresistible
in love, abandonment and humility.
And when you ask
Him for bread, He will not give you a stone, but a double portion...
When you tidy
your house, think that it is Mine and you will make it more beautiful.
When you prepare
your meals think that it is to honour Me.
And when you
rest your body, think that it is My body, My friend; and this is the reality
since all that you have is first Mine, isn’t it?
You will see Me
everywhere.
I’ll be your
Host and your Guest, who has taken your heart and asks the free gift of it.
Two lives in one”
