October 2014 (Morning Prayer)
My
little one,
Love
is My way. I ask you again to follow My holy way – love one
another as I have loved you. Do not falter in your efforts of loving
those who are put in your path each day. Forgive the weaknesses of
others. Do not be blinded to your own faults but see so clearly the
failings of others. Remove the plank from your own eye before you
try and remove the splinter from your neighbour's eye. I am calling
you to a new life of holy love – be slow to anger and rich in
mercy. Embrace the fruits of the Spirit. Learn to be gentle of
heart and compassionate to the needs of others. Show kindness and
hospitality to your neighbour. Give generously of self with no
expectation of return. Let go of any hidden expectations you have
for others. Love with a selfless heart. The amount you measure out
is the amount you will receive. Allow your cup to overflow
continuously with holy love for all. Look beyond the hardened
exterior to the hurting person within. Give glory to God by the
humble and self-effacing way you live your life. Change the old
impure ways. Purify your thoughts, the words you speak and your
actions. Do not wait. Make the changes now. Be holy in body, mind
and soul. Look to the commandment of love given to you – love your
Lord and God with all your heart, with all your mind, and with all
your strength and love your neighbour as yourself. I repeat again to
you. Love is My way. Follow the holy way of the Lord by embracing a
servant's heart of holy love.
