Episode 59 -- Imitation of Christ III.21 -- We must rest in God above all His Gifts and Favours

Will our hearts fully rest in the gifts of God?

No. Our hearts will only rest fully in the Giver of all these great spiritual gifts. In this reading, Thomas a Kempis presents a dialogue between Christ and his disciple regarding the true object of all our longing. Our hearts are made for Christ, the eternal Wisdom of the Father. He alone can set us free from our selfishness and loneliness.
