EVERYTHING LOVE TOUCHES
Love is a mystery that transforms everything it touches into things beautiful and pleasing to God. (Diary, 890)
Reflection
It’s almost like the story of King Midas. Everything he touched turned to gold and soon it had cost him everything that mattered. But here, it’s love. And everything it touches, everything we touch with it, can be transformed into something “beautiful and pleasing.” Something that will outlast any gold. Something infinitely more precious.
Prayer
Today, Dear Lord, help me notice where and whom I can “touch” with love. Help me make my day and my actions something beautiful and pleasing to You.
Jesus, I trust in You.
