Luke 19:41-44

Perceive the Father's love for His beloved children, for He has given them light and life and freedom to enjoy His world and to unite with Him in its development. But each beloved child of the loving Heavenly Father is challenged to respond in service and self-giving to Him and to their fellowmen. This is the means of their maturity and their perfection. I came into the Father's world to show the way and to redeem it. Imagine, then, the grief of the Incarnate Heart, and of the Father, when individually and corporately the children reject the love and refuse the will and power to live in peace and charity .
