God listens and responds to us. Over the last few days, I felt in my heart the need to testify about the goodness and action of the Lord. I was doing so when I read yesterday the “Thought of the Day: “Thank you for sharing with us the testimonies of our brothers and sisters in Jesus.” So, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I write to you!
For many years, through you, the Lord has been asking me to let myself be loved and filled with His love. I realized that giving love was easier for me than receiving it. I recently decided to accept it. The following day, I read in the “Thought of the Day” that the Lord was happy to see me finally accept His Love. I’m attending the “School of Love” and I accept to be corrected by Him.
He knows what is best for me, in His plan of Love. I realized that, very often, I had listened to my own will and that I was wrong, believing I was doing the right thing…
I was multiplying retreats and spiritual outings until I overdosed, burdened by fatigue, stress, exhaustion, ill-being, sadness, anxieties, etc. I was very physically hurt and as a result, I had to reduce the pace and even cancel what I had scheduled. Thank you, Lord, for opening my eyes. Subsequently, calm, joy and serenity returned. I asked Him for forgiveness for my attitude.
A few days ago, two concerns burdened my soul. I gave everything to Jesus and told Him that I trusted in Him, that I believed He had the solutions. Indeed, in the early morning and during the day, He took care of it for the best. His peace and joy returned in my heart and in my soul. Praise and thanks to You, my sweet Jesus, for all these graces.
