After reflecting on my day I can 'strain' out faults and failings, by contrition, as I once 'sieved out' stones from a flowerbed.
Whoever is willing to accept unavoidable humiliations in patience makes a 'space' amongst the crowd, so that God's grace can flow down to bathe and refresh and transform many more persons.
An act of contrition is like a straw thrown onto the fire of Christ's praise which arises from my heart to the Father. It gives Him glory.
The Father in Heaven sees a small figure, bowing before Him and ablaze like a diamond. No scar remains from long-forgiven sins.
If we are humble, repentant, loving, and faithful to Christ, His glory will shine out from our souls as if from a diamond
Christ and Our Lady were very close to me, offering consolation after I'd struggled with some special work and numerous problems.
Whoever recites a prayer with reverence and love is like a child who brings a pretty leaf to her grandfather in trust and delight.
Just as a doting grandfather must wait until he can show love in conversations and outings, so God our Father 'waits' until we enter Heaven before he demonstrats the full extent of His love.
Only in Heaven can God finally demonstrates the fullness of His love for us. If He did this in earthly life, we would die of joy - though He does give extraordinary gifts and joys to those who love Him, in contemplation. So, too, a loving grandfather on earth cannot hug the new child with too much affection, or he would hurt him. He much restrain himself, and show love through his care.
The Father can clothe us in His glory. I am a living flame, He said, before Him, as I pray one prayer with Christ.
By encouraging people in their faith and by being faithful to prayer it's as though I am drawing down gifts from Heaven.
In turning to the Risen Christ who is with the Father in Heaven, I find in Christ all the saving events of His life which are the reason for my hope.

Christ's love for us is so great that he waits until we meet in Heaven to express it fully. Until then, His touch is restrained, as when a doting grandfather reaches out gently to an infant.
The Holy Angels, too, are God's creatures - pure spirits at work to defend the Church and the world.
