Yesterday after Mass the Student Group met for adoration. Vanessa had prepared the program and the “theme” of the day was John 14,1-21.
From John 14,1-21:
Do not let your hearts be troubled. You have faith in God; have faith also in me.
(…) I am the way and the truth and the life.
I will not leave you orphans; (…)
On that day you will realize that I am in my Father and you are in me and I in you.
First meditation of Blessed James Alberione:
“Jesus invites me to enter more deeply in a personal relationship with him, a relation that can hold any difficulty, any joy or any sorrow. He desires that I experience this security which can be tasted when we are loved faithfully, wholeheartedly: “’Do not let your hearts be troubled”. Though mysterious, Jesus’ words, “I am the Way; I am Truth and Life”, are a beautiful promise of his loving fidelity and friendship.”
“The wish of God for me” of Blessed James Alberione
Your wish, o my Lord, is to come into my heart and to transform me by Your divine life.
Your wish is to purify me, to liberate me from my selfishness and my faults.
Your wish is to create me again and again, to make me a new person, in Your image.
Your wish is to fill me with Your love, for I love the Father and all my sisters and brothers as You love them.
Your wish is that I get united with You by the most intimate ties, to unite our hearts for they become one.
Your wish is to strengthen me, to give me Your divine power for I can overcome evil and be constant in doing good.
Your wish is to set my soul on fire with a tireless enthusiasm to work at the growing of Your kingdom in this world.
Your wish is that I belong to You in this life and in the life to come.
O my Lord, may Your wish become reality in my life. Help me to give You everything freely.
After the adoration in the chapel we had some time to socialize and get to know each other better.
It was a very nice evening, both spiritually and socially!
