OUR ACTIONS TO GOD
While St. Gertrude was offering a certain action to God,
saying:
O Lord, I offer thee this work through thine only Son, in
the power of the Holy Spirit, to the praise of thy eternal
Majesty;
it was revealed to her that whatever action was thus
offered would acquire a worth and acceptableness to
God beyond all human comprehension. For as all things
appear to be green when seen through a green glass, so
whatever is offered to God through his only begotten Son
cannot be otherwise than most precious and pleasing in
his sight.

That you may understand how useful it is to offer all
your works to God, listen to what our Lord said on one
occasion to St. Gertrude: All thy works are most
perfectly pleasing to me. And as she could not believe
this, he added: If you held in your hand some object
which you had the means and the skill to render perfectly
pleasing to everyone, and if you tenderly loved that
object, would you neglect to adorn it? Even thus, because
you are accustomed to offer all your works to me, I hold
them in my hand; and as I have both the power and the
skill, my love rejoiceth to cleanse and perfect them all,
that they may be most perfectly pleasing in my sight.
