Tuesday, October 10 : Saint John-Mary Vianney
Yes, my brothers, if we loved the good God, we would be happy and happy to come and spend a few moments to adore him, to ask him for the grace to forgive us: we would consider these moments as the most beautiful of our life. life. Ah! How sweet and consoling are the moments spent with this God of kindness! Are you in sorrow? come and throw yourself at his feet for a moment and you will feel completely consoled. Are you despised by the world? come here, and you will find a good friend who will never fail you in loyalty. Are you tempted? Oh ! This is where you will find strong and terrible weapons to defeat your enemy. Do you fear the tremendous judgment that has made the greatest saints tremble? take advantage of the time that your God is the God of mercy, and that it is so easy to have grace. Are you oppressed by poverty? come here, you will find a God who is infinitely rich and who will tell you that all his goods are yours, not in this world, but in the next: “It is there that I prepare infinite goods for you; go, despise these perishable goods, and you will have some that will never perish.” Do we want to begin to taste the happiness of the saints? let’s come here and we will experience its happy beginnings. Ah! How good it is, my brothers, to enjoy the chaste embraces of the Savior! Ah! you’ve never tasted them! If you had had this happiness, you would never be able to get out of it. Let us no longer be surprised that so many holy souls have spent their lives in his house both day and night; they could no longer separate themselves from his presence.
