WILL OF THE FATHER

I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me; and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day (Jn 6:38-39).

For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day (Jn 6:40).

GLORIOUS JOURNEY

Sing praise to the Lord for his glorious achievement; let this be known throughout all the earth. (Isaiah 12:5)

In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed with the promised holy Spirit, which is the first installment of our inheritance toward redemption as God’s possession, to the praise of his glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament proclaims his handiwork. Day pours out the word to day, and night to night imparts knowledge. Not a word nor a discourse whose voice is not heard; through all the earth their voice resounds, and to the ends of the world, their message. (Psalm 19:2-5)

HOPE FOR GLORY

"I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." (John 14:6)

He received dominion, glory, and kingship; nations and peoples of every language serve him. (Daniel 7:14)

God chose to make known the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; it is Christ in you, the hope for glory. (Colossians 1:27)

If Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the spirit is alive because of righteousness. If the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also, through his Spirit that dwells in you. (Romans 8:10-11)

The Lord chiefly desires of us that we should be completely perfect, that we may be wholly one with Him. Let us aim, therefore, at whatever we need to reach this. -- St. Teresa

INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES

Of us God demands purity of heart, that purity which is the life of the soul. He wants besides, since we possess no virtues worthy of Him, a deep respect and true humility.

Let us say to Him: " Lord I am not worthy to receive Thee. Depart from me, for I am a miserable sinner!"

This conviction makes up for our shortcomings. Our Lord is content with it and, when he comes to us, He will give us all that we lack.

Let us simply be faithful, humble, and confident. He will do the rest. -- St. Peter Eymard
