A brother went to see Abba Joseph and said to him, “Abba, as far as I can I say my prayer rule, I fast a little, I pray and meditate, I live in peace as far as I can, I purify my thoughts. What else can I do?” Then the elder stood up and stretched his hands towards heaven. His fingers became like ten lamps of fire and he said to him, “If you will, you can become all aflame.”

peace
 
P.S. just remember that God is doing this for you, and nothing you did could bring this upon you and you’ll always keep humble! Even when it seems like you did something (like a perfect act of charity), God helped you with whatever it was.
 
Adam, you are not alone. This has happened to me too. The first time it happened, there was so much pain, I thought it was a heart attack but I just knew it wasn’t, not just bcs I was a young healthy woman at the time.

Then this burning spread out in my heart with love.

I know it’s spiritual bcs it comes on with prayer.

Have you heard about transverberation? What are your thoughts on that?
 
Adam,

Please add me to your prayer list when you pray for sinners.
 
I’m sorry I haven’t responded in a while, its been a rough couple of days as I’ve been going through a pretty rough dry spot in prayer and my spirituality in general.

As for transverberation, I do not know what that is tbh, I did check up through google and it said something about the great mystics Theresa of Avila and John of the Cross (both Saints), but other than that I don’t know any thing about it.

As for prayer, I will offer you all up in my prayers in hopes that God will bless you all in a profound way, that he will help you glorify him who is Christ Jesus.

Pax et Bonum.

Adam,

Thank you for your prayers.

In Gethsemanes darkness Jesus prayed for us.
The sword of sorrow,
foretold long ago,
Your mother’s heart shall know.
 
Thank you Adam, please pray for me to, as I will for you, for the glory of His name on this earth.
 
Funny that i finnaly found a thread about this… I have HAD the same actually, it lasts for not even a second! It feels like something is touching my heart with ‘fire’ or something… Btw, it is transverberation of the heart… 🙂

It’s an awesome feeling, I miss that feeling real bad… Too bad I got in the state of mortal sin for about 4-5.5 months… :confused:

Go to confession. It is not as if you have to start all over.

peace
