The thought of oneself makes the soul smaller.
While I was praying, blessed Jesus told me: “My daughter, the thought of oneself makes the soul smaller, and from her smallness she measures my greatness, almost wanting to constrain Me.
On the other hand, one who does not think of herself, by thinking of Me expands within my immensity and renders Me the honor due to Me.”

PRAYER OF THE DAY:
“My beloved Jesus, I pray and suffer in Your Will, so that You may have back what is Yours – the human will. May i never refuse you the space of my human will, so that Your Love may be poured, and Your works may continue the Work of Creation.”
