Love transforms even the most difficult tasks into expressions of divine life. In giving ourselves, we discover true joy and fulfillment.

Putting Love First

Even while still on this earth, you can have the experience, in the gift of yourself, in putting love into practice, divine life grows within you. After you have spent your whole day at the service of others, after having learned to transform your daily work, which is perhaps monotonous and difficult, into an expression of love, you will experience the joy of feeling satisfied, more fulfilled as a person.

Weakness and suffering can become launch pads for God’s action. Chiara teaches us to trust Him, who transforms our nothingness into works of true value.

Bawat Hadlang ay Lunsaran ng Pagsulong

Mahalin natin ang bawat paghihirap na ating nararanasan, bawat dalamhati na nagmumula sa pagkaunawa na hindi tayo kasing lakas espirituwal o pisikal gaya ng ating inaakala. Magtiwala tayo sa Diyos. Siya ang kikilos sa ating kahinaan, sa ating kawalan. At kapag ang Diyos ang kumikilos, makatitiyak tayo na ang mga gawaing Kanyang natutupad ay may tunay na halaga.

Every Obstacle a Launch Pad

Let us love each suffering we encounter, every sorrow that comes from the realization that we are not spiritually or physically as strong as we thought we were. Let us trust God. He will work in our weakness, on our nothingness. And when it is God who acts, we can be sure that the works He accomplishes are of real value.
