Spiritual Food 1511


Dear friends,


I did not finish the article that I wanted to send (publish) for this month, but may I offer you the second part of the meditation of the priest, Père Laurent Larroque, to over 200 priests and to over 10 bishops during the International Spiritual Exercises of the Marian Movement of Priests, at Collevalenza – Sanctuary of Merciful Love (Madre Speranza), June 21-27, 2015.
(The first part, the first meditation on this topic, can be found at:

An Experience of Life


Reflecting on the merchant who sells everything because he sees the deal of his life, I thought about the time when it was presented to me the pearl of my existence: it was not a girl, it was not a job ... it was a mysterious and close being. Someone asked me: "Do you know that God loves you?". God loves me?


Until that moment I had imagined Him far away, sitting pensively on a throne, Who would have noticed me only if I had done something heroic. That He loved me before I had done something, I was appalled. Suddenly I found myself rich and I did not have to do anything, just believe and accept the love of God in every moment of my life.


This has enabled me to establish freer relationships, finish actions with enthusiasm, accept mishaps. The models on which to match my life disappeared, time became a friend, every person I met was a chance to try as well that my heart was capable of gratuitous love. The source of happiness was in me, there was no more need to seek for sources of joy. For this pearl it was worth selling everything else.

Saint Padre Pio said: "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do so without the HOLY MASS." This saint also said: “The ROSARY is the weapon for these times”!
