A timeless message of blessing from the Poor Clare TMD Nuns from Wales. They are so beautiful... God bless you and keep you all in God's loving arms today <*}}}>< <*}}}>< Dear Little hearts,
[] Most of you are at the moment preparing with varying degrees of excitement and maybe the pain of nostalgia for the feast of Thanksgiving on Thursday. I know you will have little time for the computer and I am trying to respond to this by being brief. But let our hearts all be full of thanksgiving, for a grateful heart is a praying heart. Look around you and see your families, your loved ones... and recall all those who now sing and rejoice in Him beyond the veil.... Earth touches heaven at such times because when we think of family we think too of past, present and future, all are in God. Look around at your family, some you will feel more attracted to than others, some are easier to coexist with than others, some you may have more in common with, some may be such a joy to you and some a cause of suffering and pain. BUT THESE are the ones that God has given to you for your sanctity and path to holiness, these are primarily those who need to see Gods love, mercy and goodness through you, for such is his will. It is only when we try to LOVE, not as a feeling but as an act of a will those whom we coexist with can we then go out to love others !! Every person is in our life for a purpose, maybe as a consolation, a challenge and even a source of recurring temptation, because through such we can learn to forgive, each and everyone has a purpose and a value, all are precious in Gods sight !!!! For those who are a cause of temptation in one way or another it is for us an opportunity to practise virtue and will the good and say NO where NO needs to be said, for those who are a challenge let us cast ourselves on God and seek his grace, and for those who are a consolation, let us give thanks. A blessed and Holy Preparation for your feast.. with love.
