Letters from Br. Błażej: Night 338

Capuchin Communications

January 28, 2023

Yesterday morning calm. Night quiet. Morning, with us so far calm. In Dnipro there are alarms. God, give us peace!

The Word… Listening to the word: “We praise the Lord, for he has visited his people.”
“… He will deliver us from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us.”
“He will give us that from the power of our enemies we shall be snatched, we shall serve Him without fear.”

“God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son; everyone who believes in Him has eternal life.”

“Teacher, do you care nothing that we perish?”

“Why are you so fearful? How lacking in faith you are! They became very fearful and spoke among themselves: Who is He actually, that even the whirlwind and the lake obey Him?”

And so God leads us through the days of war.
God is love.

We live in a war, we do not live by war.
