Consecrated Virginity calls us to live this reality, this way of two way street to the Father, I need to live this way, to be completely for God and entirely for the others.

To have Jesus as the center, Doing all in union with Jesus. Silence helps me do this, for He himself instructs me as he was me to do. The Consecrated Virginity makes me extremely intimate with Jesus. I have Christ as my center, this makes me one with Christ, When this is lived in fullness, self-denial does not become a heavy burden. We cannot live Consecrated Virginity as frustrated men and women.<\/p>\n<p>Heloisa Paiva<\/p>\n<p>Can\u00e7\u00e3o Nova (New Song) Community<\/p>\n<p>Translated from <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.cancaonova.com\/cancaonovaformacao\/2010\/12\/10\/a-virgindade-consagrada-e-o-seu-fascinio-sempre-atua\/\" target=\"_blank\">Portuguese<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is she that is called to imitate Christ, poor chaste and obedient, this is to be total, to be all for the other.
