- Thank you, Father, for the grace of my fall today.  So much evil built up inside me that it took a jolt to bring me to my senses?

+Yes, child.  I wanted to help you see yourself in the light of the truth.

 The fall mobilizes forces that were dormant by growing complacency first and frigidity afterwards.  And by passivity towards evil, finally.

 - And it all started with a silently growing pride.  How dangerous are successes and prosperity, and how blessed are humiliations.

+You see, child, it is in man's nature to ascribe to himself the graces he receives very easily.  And pride grows in him.

 If the grace received is to lead to pride, then I cannot give it.  Due to the lack of humility, I cannot bestow graces, although I want to bestow them very much.

 The greater the humility, the more graces.

 If the fall opens your eyes to the truth about yourself, it is a blessed moment.

 Recall the parable of the Pharisee and the sinner- and think about its meaning.

 Every man is sinful.  The awareness of this truth must shape the relationship to Me and to people.

 The goal is not for you to be sinless, but for you to be aware of your sinfulness.

- A wave of difficulties came again: distractions, reluctance, stupid thoughts that I did not resist enough, or ask for help.

 Forgive my stupidity, Father.  Come, help.  Only You can change everything.

+Trust.  I am waiting to hold you and comfort you.  To make you stronger.

 Come to Me.

 I make high demands of you.  This is your way because you wanted it.

 If you have accepted a goal, you must also accept the effort required to achieve it.

 Be consistent and brave.  I am with you.

 Psalm 50:14-15

- Who am I that you care so much... , Ps 8,5

+My child.

 I care for all My children.  I gave birth to them and I want to have them close to Me, and make them happy with My love and My gifts.

 I really want to make you happy.

 It pains Me when you turn away and refuse to accept My love.  It hurts a lot, and I feel sorry for these poor, lost children of Mine.

 Help them return to Me.  You can do more with prayer than with action.

 It is always effective.

 +Don't spare your time and effort, and don't save yourself.  You can do so much without realizing it.

+Your trust begins to waver - keep an eye on it.  Watch it a lot more.  You can live without an eye.  Without trust, your faith will die, and with it you will die, although you will walk in this world.

Watch over trust, because it is your life.

+Listen to My voice.  Hear me when I speak softly.  There is a constant whisper of My love in your heart.

 Be listening, be focus.  See My loving gaze in everything.
