The lamp of Grace- Volume 6
As I was in my usual state, I heard a voice saying to me:
“There is a lamp which is such that whoever draws near
it can light as many little flames as he wants; and these little flames serve to form a crown of honor around the lamp, and
to give light to the one who lit them.”
I said to myself: ‘What a beautiful lamp this is; it has so much light and so much
power, that while it gives to others as much light as they want, it remains always what it is, without being impoverished in
light. Who knows who possesses it!’ While I was thinking of this, I heard someone say:
“The lamp is Grace, and God
possesses It. Drawing near it signifies the good will of the soul to do good, because as many goods as one wants to draw
from Grace, one can draw. The little flames that are formed are the different virtues which, while giving glory to God,
give light to the soul.”
Scripture Meditation- Thy word is a lamp to my feet
and a light to my path. (Psalm 119:105).
Prayer Reflection- O Lord we bless You, we love You, and we adore You because there is a Lamp from which all can light their little flames which stay lit as long as we are close to the Lamp. And this Lamp is Grace- Your Grace Lord! And as much of Your goodness that we want to draw from Your Lamp of Grace we can forming the little flames of the virtues which give Glory to You! Your Word is indeed a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. Besides meditating on Your Word, we can draw strength, light, and peace from the light that is always lit next to the Tabernacle in any Catholic Church anywhere in the world! O Lord let us seek the Lamp of Your Grace always in prayer, in Your Word, and in Your Eucharistic Presence and in Your Most Holy Divine Will! Fiat!
