‘Time’ Is A Gift … and God gives you the gift of the next two minutes to read this!
"Love Me and show your love for Me by offering Me the gift of your time. Be like the candle that exists only to burn itself out in My presence. It is enough that you are there in My presence, offering Me the flame of your love and allowing yourself to be consumed in quiet adoration.
Speak to Me freely, or simply remain in silence. I do not ask for many words; I ask for your companionship, for your presence, and for the loving attention of your heart. Thus will you attain to the union with Me that I desire for you: a fruitful union by which you will abide in Me and I in you.
Give Me this, the sacrifice of your time in My presence, and I will give you all else, even those things that, at the moment, seem impossible."
(In Sinu Jesu p.264)
How can you turn down an offer to gain ‘all else’ by not giving back to the Lord a small portion of the ‘time’ that He has gifted to you? Doesn’t have to be a lot … just be there. See you in the chapel.
