Ss. Joachim and Ann:
Ecclesiasticus 44:1,10-15. Matthew 13:16-17

It is written ’ the faithful shall abide with Him in love’ : love will make His home in all continuing faithful in the grace and power of Our indwelling.

And in and through their faithfulness the Most High will reveal and present the nature of His Being and offer them a part in the fulfilment of His loving purpose in His world, for His word and love will make their home in them and they will bring forth all that He wills and purposes as they continue faithful in the Way.

Rejoice, then, alone and in the company of all whose spiritual eyes and ears receive and respond to and in the mystery, joy and glory of Love’s indwelling. In humility, love and absolute self-giving offer all you have and all you are to Him who calls you to His constant and eternal Presence and brings you to perfection and fulfilment as you remain in Us and We in you. Rejoice and press on to the hope and joy of your high calling (Ephesians 1:15)
