Union with God

Jn 1: 4.7 Everyone who loves is begotten of God, and knows God.



The pure goodness given with unconditional love is the essence of union that completes oneness with God, so as we advance our ways with the spirit let us be glad of direction given from the heavens. Within we have been nurtured with the ways of the faithful for direction by an instinct that has been engraved within our spirit was given before time. We have been shown each a way that gathers peace and this develops and forms the avenue of love that will gain us the joys of happiness. Joined together is the family our God gives and as we grow with determination in the helping of one another our spirit brings love for we receive what has been given from each other. God gives what is necessary to advance the spirit: In the eyes of the sick you see the desire to help and they do. In support of the lonely companionship appears and this brings caring. In the ways of the weak strength is allowed and the path of faith is shown. Take the time in the busyness of your life to help and guide the ways of the lost to the ways of our Lord which brings love. Multiply his flock with the words given of truth for as he multiplied the fish and bread to feed his people we must follow example and feed his people with the direction of knowledge that will bring them to his ways. Console those who are sent for their needs show the giving of heart. " Love one another as I have loved you" said the Master for even in failure your creator is within. -Sister Dominica Marie OPD

"Give us, O Lord, a steadfast heart, which no unworthy affection may drag downwards; give us an unconquered heart, which no tribulation can wear out; give us an upright heart, which no unworthy purpose may tempt aside. Bestow upon us also, O Lord our God, understanding to know you, diligence to seek you, wisdom to find you, and a faithfulness that may finally embrace you; through Jesus Christ our Lord



-St. Thomas Aquinas
