The following words describe a
Love Relationship that has been alive in my being
since Mission: JOY became part of my life.
“Joy is the reward of seeking to give joy to others.
When you are caring, compassionate, more concerned
about the welfare of others than of your own,
you suddenly feel a glow in your heart because
you have in fact wiped the tears from the eyes of another.”
Archbishop Tutu, Mission JOY
Pause and Reflect Concerning –
“When you are Caring. . .
Compassionate. . .
More Concerned. . .
about the welfare of others than of your own,
you suddenly feel a glow in your heart because you
have in fact wiped the tears from the eyes of another.”
Reflect about a “glow in your heart.”
What was your experience of JOY, the heart-filled glow of JOY?
Daily our World Community needs us to be responders to the Call of Compassion. Remember these words of Thich Nhat Nanh: “With compassion in your heart, every thought, word and deed can bring about a miracle.”
Touch and Encounter

Your Beating Heart. . .
Welcome Compassion and joy into your Heart.
Take time to be in Presence with your Compassionate, Joyful Heart.
(15 minutes)
If thoughts come, return to your Heart.
Journey with your Compassionate Joyful Heart.
To where is it leading you?
As I was thinking about closing words for these reflections, I came upon a quote from Pope Francis and I share it with you:
“The joy that you have freely received from God,
Please, freely give away: so many people are waiting for it!
So many are waiting for it from you!”
Pope Francis
