‘I praise you, Father, and I thank you for all that you have done for me. I thank you for loving me, for speaking to my heart and for showing me the path to overcome fear and discouragement, the distractions and the bondages of the enemy through which he tempts us to walk, to abandon ourselves and to surrender ourselves to the foot of your son’s Holy Cross. To live in the light, O holy light, of the victory of the Cross. In the name of Jesus, consume me in love.’

“Yes, my son,” our Father says, “abandon yourself at the foot of the Cross each day by seeking to fulfill my will and offering to my heart the desires of your heart. That I truly desire to fulfill in love, if it be what is good for you. To fulfill your new hopes and aspirations and to be prevented from believing that you are weak, for your strength comes through the power of my love, through my Son and the Holy Spirit, we, the Trinity as one. Rejoice, my son.”

‘Yes, my Lord, I rejoice in you and I bless you, Almighty Father. Increase in me the evangelization of your heart to spread your words and to live in a state of love united to you to fulfill all things. Not my will, but your will, O Father.’
