Prayer of the Heart Friday of the Tenth Week of Ordinary Time. Come Holy
Spirit, to give me your ever- new life. Fill me with the
amazement of a child to admire the world and life that I do not get
used to, the life that let me surprise because the morning, because behind
everything is your Love, my God help me to recognize that the routine does
not exist, because all then, every day, because there is always something
that is beginning. Take all my life Holy Spirit and it will be from
the eternal novelty of your Love that this day passes it in hand and I
can discover the message that you have today for my life. Holy Spirit.
Come today we celebrate St Louis Gonzaga, the Gospel of St Matthew, chapter
six verses nineteen to twenty- three. At that time Jesus said to his
disciples. It doesn' t surprise you treasures on earth, where the moth
will go carcoma gnaw it, where thieves open gaps and steal it. You
spend hours treasure in heaven, where there is no moth or carcoma to eat
them, nor thieves who speak gaps and steal, for where your treasure is,
your heart will be there. The lamp is the body of the body
is the eye. If your eye is healthy, your whole body will have
light. If your eyes are sick, your whole body will be dark.
And if the only light you have in this dark, how many will be
the darkness. Well, holy spirit, have my heart with the fire of
your love so that this prayer will help me to defend myself, to detach
myself from all material and to consider all rubbish and loss, in order to
win you over. Give me Jesus, a poor heart free of selfishness so
you can reign in me. Gospel is not only a communication of things that
can be known, but a communication that carries facts and changes life. The
dark door of the time of the future has been wide open who has hope
lives in another way. He' s been given a new life. Abraham
moves forward, walks in with his heart, trusting in the hope that God
opens the promise of a land to him, and he goes out without knowing
where he was going, trusting only in God and Jesus. In today'
s Gospel, through three parables, he illustrates with the hope of the fulfillment
of the bioventured, hope his coming to impel even more to an intense life,
full of good works, blesses your goods and gives alms, make you
bags that do not deteriorate, an inexhaustible treasure in the heavens where the thief
and moth do not arrive. It is an invitation to use things in selfishness,
without feeling possession or dominion, but according to the logic of God,
the logic of attention to others, the logic of love. In this orgielic
passage, Jesus wants to teach them and how we should help in this world
to gain heaven that is with works that produce good fruit and also purifying our
heart to love him instead of the world and pleasures the things that we do
and this earth must be done according to God, following his designs and wanting.
It is not the same to do a great work of charity or a
very good service to someone with the objective of appearing as the most charitable or
helpful man before men, to perform among those same acts with the intention of
being seen only by God, without wanting to receive praise or praise from men,
but with the attitude of giving him glory and flattering him with those actions.
Purity of intention is necessary for our works, for our works to have
balnon n ons the eyes of God and he will give us our just payment
for those good choices. Nothing we do will be unrewarded, whether good or
bad, and we will receive that reward here, on earth and in heaven
righteous intentions. What he relates is happening. Ps John Paul II, Pope
on Paul II, of a solemn Vatican room, receives one of the highest
religious authorities the uz of Judaism, the Great Rabbi of the State of Israel,
Mair Lou The formal interview, took place to sicken his narco and left
room for aneerotic mouse. Then the Jewish religious narrated to the Supreme Pontiff,
a fact that occurred long decades ago in a European city told him that after
the Second World War, a Catholic woman went to the parish of her people
to give him a consultation. Her. Her husband had in his care that
among other days of the war, a little Jewish boy entrusted to him by
his parents shortly before being deported to a concentration camp. The children' s
parents, who had disappeared in the tragic imprisonment of the Nazi massacre, had
foreseen for the child a future in the land of Israel. They dreamed of
it. The adoptive mother of the Jewish child stood at the crossroads and asked
the Catholic priest for advice, since her intention was to baptize the child for
the gratitude for having survived the massacre. The parish priest had a prompt and
comprehensive response. The will of parents must be respected. Subsequently, the child
was sent to the then- born State of Israel, where he would be
raised and educated. Another asked very interesting questions for Carol Withilla and became more
comfortable even when Marlow, the Great Rabbi, clarified the identity of those people.
Your eminence was that parrocatoric and that orphan child was me. To do
so requires our heart to be attentive to the opportunities that present them. It
is true what Christ says about the heart. For example, there is the
testimony of many saints who put their whole heart into the goods of heaven and
acted accordingly, for heaven and God were their treasure and thus gained the eternal
company of God, because all his person and heart were fixed in heaven.
Lord Jesus, if I am not generous in the apostolate in the adoration of
my time and of selfless service to others and to the Church, it is
because I have given you no place to have my life due to you.
I have not been docile to your inspirations or that measure to take advantage of
your grace, but today is a new day, a new opportunity to leave
all the ties behind and with great confidence and joy to grow in love.
I give you the blessing that God, Father, accompany this in your heart.
Take care of you, make you strong and joyful that the child that
I read, son, will make you feel his tenderness and mercy and remove
you and heed from your heart any anxiety that I can make you suffer that
God, Holy Spirit, you shed your intelligence, strength in your heart renewed
spirit and determination to love with all your heart that Blessed Mary will make you
feel her warmth as a mother and her loving embrace and lands to Joseph.
He takes care of you with his father' s heart, in the name
of father and son and holy spirit Anan
