Now not only Your shoes, but also the clothing is clean, untorn, and comfortable).

Previously, in reflection, You revealed the answer to my old question: where is our freedom if, in any case, we fulfil Your Will?
You showed that true freedom lies in our intentions. Indeed, we ourselves decide with what intention we perform our actions and thoughts, even considering that we all consciously or unconsciously fulfil Your will. This is the true freedom of Your creations. Thus, our intention, with which we carry out the present action or thought, predetermines our future, according to Your Will. The future can be different, either more painful or more joyful – this is the law of Your justice, the law of cause and effect.
If I have understood You correctly, Your boundless Mercy manifests in that if our intentions are wholeheartedly directed towards You and we fully rely on Your Mercy, then You annul the punishment and bestow various graces upon us. Moreover, we can even ask You for Others, and it will work! Thanks to You, the consequence we created for ourselves with our previous mistakes no longer holds power over us, and a new future is born.

Your world's mechanics are fascinating 🙂.

When I asked today how to learn to love You above all, You reminded me that love is an act of will. Therefore, understanding all that You have revealed to this day, I decided to perform the following exercise:
Every hour, daily, record in a journal the answers to the following questions: 

1. What can I do for You? Are my current intentions directed towards doing something For You? (Not even actions, as it was in Dima Trotsky's exercise, but precisely intentions).

2. Am I using my talents, abilities, and circumstances well at this moment?

If the manifestation of love is truly an act of will, then by constantly offering You my actions, I must learn to love You more.

I finally understood the source of Your suffering. You are painfully hurt by the unfaithfulness of those for whom You make so many efforts. Exactly as it hurts us when our children or someone else we love and for whom we make many efforts make mistakes or offend us. Nevertheless, if we are wise, our love, despite the offence, does not diminish. This is a very good life experience to understand what You suffer from. You have done infinitely much good for Your beloved creations, and therefore Your pain from our unfaithfulness is also boundless.

As soon as I came to this conclusion, I saw You stopping by the roadside, putting on new, clean, and comfortable clothing. That's what it meant! Now the dust of my mistakes will no longer fall on You, because the only thing I truly have that is mine, my intentions, will be directed towards fulfilling Your Will.

The shoes and clothing are already clean 😀, which pleases me greatly 🙂.
But there remains the old, dirty, slightly torn, but still strong backpack, which You put on again, and we moved on. I hope You will show what it means in Your examples)).
