Note: As previously discussed here, this is the last meditation/reflection from the little book, "Just for Today". I hope the next set of reflections will be beneficial.
_______
O that with Thy presence thou wouldst enflame, burn, and transform me into Thyself, that I may be made one spirit with Thee, by the grace of internal union and by the melting of ardent love!
-Bk. IV, ch. xvi.
____________
If Thy justice loves to stay its course upon earth, how much more must not Thy merciful love wish to enflame souls, for Thy mercy is in heaven (Ps. xxxv, 5). O Jesus, may I be the favoured victim...consume Thy little host in the fire of divine love!
-The Story of a Soul (L'Histoire d'une Âme).
