1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:08,199
Prayer of the heart Wednesday of the
seventh week of ordinary time. Help me

2
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:15,839
holy spirit so I can look at
others with your patient eyes. I want

3
00:00:15,919 --> 00:00:20,559
to recognize your love for all human
beings, also for those people that I

4
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,879
can no longer love with patience and
compassion, that I cannot love with patience

5
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:29,879
and compassion. They are all important
to the loving heart of Jesus. They

6
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,679
' re all sagagassed and borious.
No one has been born by chance,

7
00:00:33,799 --> 00:00:37,079
but it is an eternal project of
your love. Free me from condemning and

8
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:45,079
prejudging others. I' d like
to imagine your sufferings, your anxieties,

9
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,439
those weaknesses that you find difficult to
operate. Help me to always find some

10
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:54,560
excuse to excuse them and not to
look at them with bad eyes shed on

11
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,880
me all the patience I need.
Come holy spirit of Horamos today to sanctify

12
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,599
the Gospel of Saint Mark. Chapter
nine verses, thirty- eight to forty.

13
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,599
At that time Jesus said, Juana
said, Jesus, Master. We

14
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,359
have seen one casting demons in another
man and we have wanted to prevent him

15
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,000
because he is not one of us. Jesus answered. Don' t stop

16
00:01:19,239 --> 00:01:23,079
him because one who makes miracles in
my name can' t talk bad about

17
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:26,040
me later. The one who is
not against us is in our favor.

18
00:01:27,879 --> 00:01:34,040
But today I want to comment to
the reading what it says so, dear

19
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:40,480
brothers, you say tomorrow or the
day after we go to that city and

20
00:01:40,519 --> 00:01:42,760
we will spend there in the year
negotiating and earning money and you don'

21
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,680
t even know what will happen tomorrow? For what is your life, a

22
00:01:47,799 --> 00:01:51,719
cloud that appears for a moment and
immediately disappears. You must say so.

23
00:01:52,239 --> 00:01:55,519
If the Lord wants it and we
live, we' ll do that or

24
00:01:55,519 --> 00:02:04,000
that. Really the apost I Santiago
writes a true treatise of morality. These

25
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,080
are good and necessary advice. In
this case it prevents us from wanting to

26
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:14,800
have everything humanly bound, so that
we leave nothing to improvisation and then we

27
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:23,400
come to believe ourselves indispensable. We
make plans, we foresee, we have

28
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,159
to do it, but knowing our
limitations and then things are different, in

29
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,719
a different way. Change the last
hour they twist or fix in the least

30
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:39,199
thought way. What will happen tomorrow, what will separate us, time,

31
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:46,120
etcetera. These are questions that we
all ask ourselves and we know that we

32
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:52,240
cannot answer each other with certainty.
If the Lord wants it, we say

33
00:02:52,439 --> 00:02:58,439
we are absolutely dependent on God and
this gives us a certain fear. What

34
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:02,000
can God want for You, but
make you happy? What can God do

35
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,479
in You, but good. But
it' s hard for us to believe.

36
00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:09,680
It' s like the dairy story
I already had in mind what I

37
00:03:09,759 --> 00:03:14,639
' d do with the money I' d get out of the milk sale

38
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,560
and what I' d buy with
that money and what I' d get

39
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,479
out of that sale, etcetera,
etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. But he

40
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,879
dropped his pitcher, lost his milk
and all the history and his dreams were

41
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:30,400
left in nothing. This can happen
to us, and in fact, it

42
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:36,319
happens to us. We make plans, anticipate unforeseen events, adjust time,

43
00:03:37,039 --> 00:03:42,599
weigh in the future and suddenly for
something that God has otherwise wanted, everything

44
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:50,719
falls apart the priests. We pray
every night a precious prayer, in prayer

45
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,560
before night rest the whole is Simeon' s prayer in the Temple, when

46
00:03:54,599 --> 00:04:00,479
he saw the child Jesus, the
child God and had his arms. Now,

47
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,039
sir say you said it was Simeon. Now, Lord, you can

48
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:09,199
let your servant be seen in peace
according to your word, for my eyes

49
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,439
have seen your salvation, which you
have prepared in the stroke of all peoples,

50
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,759
light for the revelation of the Gentiles
and glory of your poor Israel.

51
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,519
Praying this prayer gives much peace and
helps to rest from leaving everything in the

52
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:28,120
evils of God. And so we
say in another habitation that we also pray

53
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:33,519
in that moment in your hands.
Lord I entrust my spirit, I will

54
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:38,920
say today many thanks to Mary,
Mary, mother of love and mercy,

55
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,680
defending us from enemies and protecting us
now and at the hour of our death.

56
00:04:43,959 --> 00:04:48,160
Amen give you the blessing God,
father and fountain of all light,

57
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,639
who illuminated the hearts of the disciples, pouring on them the holy spirit.

58
00:04:53,879 --> 00:04:59,160
Bless you and grant you the abundance
of your dors, the admirable fire that

59
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,680
appeared upon the disciples, purify your
hearts from all evil and enlighten you with

60
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:09,000
its light the spirit that, by
proclaiming one faith meeting to the peoples of

61
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,800
different tongues, makes you persevere is
to my faith and come to them thanks

62
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,079
to the vision that you expect and
the blessing of God almighty father, son

63
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:25,000
and holy spirit to you, being
upon you and always remaining amen
