I pray that you will live that spirit of detachment, of non-possession. Let there be poverty and simplicity in the hearts of us all!
Grace in Every Season (February 5)
When we start truly living this way of unity with Christ, (abiding deep in the Immaculate Heart of Mary), we become less preoccupied with ourselves and start thinking more and more about those around us, knowing that God will provide for our own needs as we step out in faith. He never fails.
What fails us is our selfish pursuits and grabbing for our piece of the pie, and feelings of entitlement that it produces and it has this world in a tail spin.
So why is Our Blessed Mother saying that all our desires will be met? Isn’t that a prosperity gospel? Lol. Well… when your desires are aligned with God’s… then it’s true … your deepest desires are always fulfilled… because you know that it all comes from His hand for our greater good… so we want it all, even what the world sees as not a good. Some may even look at our lives in pity, but they can’t see the joy and peace we’re living in… and it’s not nice to boast. 😉
