Heart To Heart

“Prayer is essentially resting one’s head on the Jesus Consolingheart of God, certain that He knows our every need. Yes, prayer is complete surrender.”

                                    ~Sister Wendy Beckett

 

 

For Reflection:

What is your one special need today? Picture yourself with your head resting against the heart of God knowing that He is already making provision for your need. Surrender it to Him with faith and confidence.

31.TAKING CARE OF ONE ANOTHER
31.1 Christ is the Good Samaritan who comes down from Heaven to heal and help us.
Many Fathers of the Church and early christian writers have identified Christ himself as the Good Samaritan. The man who falls into the hands of thieves is a symbol of humanity wounded by original sin and personal sin. St.Augustine has commented: These offences robbed mankind of immortality. They covered him with wounds and made him susceptible to sin. St Bede has written that sins are called wounds because they destroy the integrity of human nature. The thieves represent the devil, unrestrained human passions, scandal…The Levite and the priest symbolize the Old Covenant, which cannot cure these wounds. The inn is a symbol of the Church.
