St. Jerome Emiliani
Tobit 12:6-13. Mark 10:17-30

All gifts of substance and of character are from the Father and for the building up the soul of each and for the service of community . So all must constantly be offered to Our saving , sanctifying love for guidance that all may be deployed according to the Father's will and loving purpose .

From those to whom much is given much is required . According to the measure of self-giving will there be progress in the soul and in community . Nothing comes from nothing ; all joy and fulness spring from the loving and the generous spirit . The Father generously rewards the totally committed in self-giving with love , which is the substance of His Being , and with eternal life .

I am The Way, The Truth, The Life. Seek My Presence is your heart and mind, for I am the Father's Love Incarnate and His Incarnate Word. I will bring you to the fullness of His loving purpose for you as you commit your life , your substance and your total self to the power of My Indwelling and the light and guiding of Our Holy Spirit . I am with you always, even till the end of time.
