“I have experienced much joy and encouragement from your love, because the hearts of the holy ones have been refreshed by you
brother…I urge you out of love, being as I am, Paul, an old man…I urge you on behalf of my child Onesimus…I am sending him, that is, my own heart, back to you.” Philemon 1:7, 9-10,12. St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta said, “The reason for our existence is to quench the thirst of Jesus. When he asked for water, the soldier gave him vinegar to drink—but his thirst was for love, for souls, for you and me.”
Let us pray, Heavenly Father, may we grow in love, deeply centered in our hearts, as Your son St. Paul did. Help us know that our hearts are truly one in Jesus, and that to love one another is to love Our Lord, and to distain one another is to distain the Lord. Grant us the grace. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
