✞ Jesus hides to see what the soul does.
Volume 7 — Entry 71
Children, love each other by always forgiving everyone. To love my Son means always forgiving all those who offend you. My children, you do not love my Son Jesus if you fail to forgive your brother, if you do not make an effort to understand your neighbor, if you only judge him without correcting him fraternally with love, and out of love. My children, you may be men and women of prayer, but what good is prayer if you do not know how to love and forgive your brothers and sisters? Pray and live in love: ask God in this time of grace for the gift of a faith that knows how to love everyone without prejudice. My children, the world lacks love: be instruments of love.
