Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures

Thursday of the Third Week of Advent

We Won’t Be Shaken

Jesus: “I can see to what extent you were shaken by the fact that

they did not believe your sincere words which, in truth, come from

Me. I have noticed with what level of fortitude you received this

first great suffering that was a kind of general rehearsal for the beginning

of suffering. This time of grace is destined for the whole

world, however, it is through you that we want to initiate this Holy

Cause, but it cannot start on feet of clay. It is only with a soul as

hard as steel that it can be ignited.” (Jesus) (March 24, 1963)

Today’s Readings: Though the mountains leave their place
        and the hills be shaken,
    My love shall never leave you
        nor my covenant of peace be shaken,
        says the LORD, who has mercy on you. (Isaiah 54)

Prayer Meditation- Lord, in these days we can feel shaken- I would bet that most days we all feel pretty shaky because it seems that the world as we know it is passing. And indeed, it is because there is a time of Grace destined for the whole world. As You told us in the Gospel of Luke, I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing! And yet in the shaking of this world, You promise that You will never leave us and that Your Covenant of Peace will not be shaken! Lord we praise You, we thank You, and we glorify You for Your Mercy which never ends!
