Let Communion Nourish Your Interior Life
We all know that to successfully grow flowers, the essential thing is to keep them fresh by watering the roots. If the root dries, the plant will die. Fertility depends on moisture. The sun by itself does not make flowers bloom; its heat alone would make them wither, but it makes moisture fertile, active. Therefore, to cultivate the flower of sanctity in our soul, we have to keep the roots fresh and moist, which means simply that we have to live the interior life. Nature gives dew and rain to the earth. The grace of God is the dew of the soul; given in abundance, it is a shower that floods it and makes it fruitful.
