July 4

“If you immediately become preoccupied with distracting affairs, and give no heed to Him Who is within you, how can He make Himself known to your soul? The time of which I am speaking, namely, immediately after Holy Communion, is a particularly opportune time. It is then that the Master personally teaches you. Listen to Him.”

                                                                                    -St. Teresa of Avila

Today's Reflection:

According to St. Teresa of Avila, what could be the reason that I often fail to hear the voice of our Lord speaking to me in my heart? How can I eliminate distractions?  (Hint: See tomorrow’s Gracelines for a suggestion by St. Teresa.)
