St Thérèse of the Child Jesus (M)

Job 19:21-27; Psalm 27; Luke 10:1-12

God is very near you

There is something very special about being near or close to someone. Intimacy is the empowering of the body for the good of self, others and our world. It’s about a life mission of ‘from my flesh I shall look on God’.

That mission is not one of possessions, but being possessed.
