DAY FIVE : The Gift of Piety
Antiphon :
"O most blessed Light
Fill the inmost heart
Of Your Faithful."
"Unless you become like little children, you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven." Mt. 18:3
Meditation:
The Gift of Piety instills in the soul a childlike love and trust for God. God is not just an all powerful being, but to the pious, God is a caring and loving Father and we are His children. The Gift of Piety gives one a complete trust and confidence in God. No one better exemplifies the Gift of Piety than St Therese of Lisieux and her Little Way of spiritual childhood, where "God reveals Himself to the childlike."Mt. 11:25
Reflection:
Do I truly see God as a loving Father?
Do I have a childlike trust in God?
How am I childlike in my relationship with God?
V. Come, O Spirit of Piety, come to live in our heart to possess and sanctify all of our affections.
