'We can touch the souls of others
only because of our own personal contact with Jesus.
If that communication is cut off, no virtue will go forth out of us.'
From The Living Pyx of Jesus by A Religious, Pellegrini, 1941, p. 303

Oh yes, indeed. I know it well, when I'm busier so I don't take time to listen, my words are not filled with heaven then. They don't breathe life.
ReplyDeleteThank you for that precious reminder!
Thank you, and I thank God that He used this to remind ME!
DeleteNancy,
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about something similar recently. It's no use trying to help others if we don't spend time with God. Channels of grace...Alone, we don't have much to offer.
Channels - yes, Sue, that's what we are. I am trying to sit still long enough to be filled :) !
