Our Lord Speaks:
“Detachment is Grace often misunderstood
We embrace the task but hold only onto the love in which it is empowering
and the source from which it came!
Gratitude in the giving
Joy in the joining of giver and gift
Know that both the seed and the fruit are gifts to be shared
We become the steward of the gifts for the glory of God
The sower, the tiller, the harvester, and distributor all play roles of charity
It is the power of the process,
carried out in Divine Love with the Creator
The action of the act therefore is Divinized in harmony and communion
A divine Union all serving the Divine Will
Cling to nothing but the grace and the charity of the Divine Acts in Divine Union
A true communion of Wills
A true Divine and Charitable act
Every breath
Every heartbeat
Every Thought, Word and Deed
Detachment from the gift, and union and communion of the Wills with God
By detachment in our charitable acts, we become the echo of the glory of God!

Matthew 6:19-21 (DR)
“Lay not up to yourselves treasures on earth: where the rust, and moth consume, and where thieves break through and steal.
But lay up to yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither the rust nor moth doth consume, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal.
For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.”
