As disciples on the edge of religious life, our experience of human and divine love reveals a profound passion for life, igniting our hearts. We aspire to love God limitlessly. Love, a transformative fire, requires constant fuel to endure. It destroys illusions and ego, revealing the truth of ourselves. Deep within, a fire burns, where we see the face of Christ intertwined with our own. Each human life shapes the cosmos' journey forward. Our hearts' fire mirrors the universe's, endlessly forging God's radiant presence within us. Surrendering to God's embrace, we find purpose in being our true selves, allowing God's love to guide our path.
May the radiant fire of divine love, burning within us and mirroring the universe's eternal flame, guide us to surrender to God's embrace, illuminating the path as we embrace our true selves and live out our purpose with boundless love.
On the edge of religious life, we find a fervent love, both human and divine, igniting within. Yearning to love boundlessly, we embrace the transformative flames of love. Like a fire, it consumes illusions, leaving only truth. Deep within, a radiant fire reveals a reflection, merging Christ’s face with our own. In this divine embrace, the cosmos unfolds, each life a thread in the tapestry of existence. We are but vessels for the eternal flame, surrendering to its inexorable glow. With each moment, we plunge deeper into love’s embrace, trusting its infinite depth to guide our path towards truth.
