Mother Marie Madeleine Ponnet’s wisdom, gleaned in her deep interior life of mystical prayer, is timeless in its ability to touch souls.
She suggests, “ Ask of Our Lord for the grace to make each of the acts of your life filled with the immensity of His own Love.”
Such grace would bring us to deep union with Our Lord and each moment of our life would also BE love.
Corresponding to her counsel, this piece of spiritual wisdom fleshes out how to allow this to happen.
“I knead my life with the Divine Life. This union is so intimate and bound together that His life takes the place of my life. Everything is within this union, even physical strength; not a movement that does not flow out of His, to speak I unite my lips with His, I unite my hands with His hands, to read, I unite my eyes and my intelligence with His; it is all together.”
Her prayer to Jesus also reflects the disposition of union with Him. Mother Ponnet prays: “O Jesus! I cannot accept that there would be even the smallest mixture in me of anything but You alone! Your love, your pleasure! My sweet Savior Jesus, my Bridegroom, my divine Model, which was your occupation your entire time here on earth. My Lord Jesus, I surrender myself to your work, your actions, your operation.”
