The Two Hearts

Prayer requests will, from now on, be copied at the end of forum mailings.

In this mailing, a poem by Fr. Luke Harris OCSO is copied. Fr Luke is a Cistercian monk from a monastery here in the UK which Vassula has visited more than once. Thanks to Catherine Keightley for forwarding this item. Catherine prefaced the item with the following: „Father Luke feels the poem might be too obsure for many but he really loves Vassula’s writings, ponders them and spreads them far and wide.”

I wrestle away with Vassula’s books in that I love reading them……. she seems to be stressing especially the Three Persons, the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts and the Holy Spirit. So maybe the title of „True Life in God” can sum it up, thus-wise.

True Life can only be the (Life-giving) Spirit, the Torrent of Living water that flows to us through the blood of the Saviour’s wounds and the tears of His Mother’s as from a double cascade…..

This I tried to put into a poem but although it got a bit obscure, I

include it here…………. The destination of this 'Golden River’ is of
course Abba – cf end of the Apoc. „Come to the Father”. All of which,
if it makes sense, is compressed into the title „True Life in God”.

Here is the poem:

The Two Hearts

Dark the heart’s cave
Till earthblind eyes
Adjust and ear
betrays splashing
Hidden Water.
Double a Cascade
High falling, first
>From Maid’s
Immaculate heart
Far down, falling, falling
To Mercy’s Sacred Pool
Of cool, forgiving Love.

Through speared
Cleft outpoured;
And my heart’s cave
River swept, Abba-ward
By wave
of Living Water.”

PRAYER REQUEST

Pavlos Theodorou forwards the following request:

I would like to ask the TLIG community to pray for a girl who is patiently waiting her death. She is called Maria and lives in Samos, unfortunately she has cancer and the doctors cannot do anyting. They sent her home a few weeks ago and she patiently waits to die. She is only 29 years old and if there is a hope for her it could only be a miracle by the Good Lord.
