Beata Mother Teresa novena - Day 2
Second Day - Jesus Loves You
“Am I convinced of the love of Christ for me and of mine for Him? This conviction is like the light that makes the sap of live rise and sanctity flourish. This conviction is the rock on which sanctity is founded.”
“The devil can try to use the wounds of life and sometimes our own errors to make us feel that it is impossible for Jesus to really love us, impossible that He really clings to us. This is a danger to us all. And it is truly sad because it is completely contrary to what Jesus really wants…to what he longs to say to you. He loves you always, even when you believe you don’t deserve it.”
“Jesus gently loves you, you are precious to Him. Direct yourselves to Jesus with great confidence and allow yourself to be loved by Him. The past belongs to His mercy, the future to His providence, and the present to His love.”
Thought for the day:
“Do not be afraid - you are precious to Jesus. He loves you.”
Ask for the grace to be convinced of Jesus’ unconditional and personal love for you
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, you allowed the thirsting love of Jesus on the Cross to become a living flame within you, and so became the light of His love to all. Obtain from the Heart of Jesus (here make your request). Teach me to allow Jesus to penetrate and possess my whole being so completely that my life, too, may radiate His light and love to others. Amen.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, Cause of Our Joy, pray for me.
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, pray for me.
