Novena Prayer Day Eight

 Blessed Anne Marie Javouhey

Novena Day Eight

 

Today's Thought of

Blessed Anne Marie Javouhey

Love of Neighbor

“Why do you want me to put limits to my love

when God puts no limit to his graces?”

Anne Marie Javouhey’s love for her neighbor was of the same degree as her love for God. She extended it to the needy of the whole world, regardless of color, class or creed. “People have a right to our charity; do not miss any opportunity of showing your love.” The first ingredient of her love was respect. Her work for the negroes was successful because she sincerely valued them as she valued herself. Such love and devotedness to others means sacrifices. Anne Marie Javouhey was ready for them. Are we?  In Anne Marie’s spirit, we pray for the Congregation, the Church, all Peoples of the world.
