Prayer of the heart Sunday of the tenth week of ordinary time. Holy Spirit,
You who make everything clear to me, who illuminate all the ways for
me to reach my idea, my ideal You who give me the divine gift
to forgive and forget the evil that they do to me and that in all
the moments of my life you are with me. I want, in this
short dialogue, to thank you for everything and confirm that I never want to
separate myself from you, however much material illusion. I wish to be with
you and all my dear ones in perpetual glory. Thank you for your mercy
to me and mine. Thank you, my God. Today we celebrate St
Ephren of Syria, Bishop forgiveness, deacon and doctor of the Church, the
Gospel St Mark, chapter three verses twenty to thirty- five. At that
time, Jesus came to the house with his disciples and again gathered so many
people that they would not let them eat. Upon learning his family, they
came to take him away because he was said to be out of his mind
and the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said he had Beltzebub inside and
cast out the demons. With the power of the head of the demons,
he invited himself to approach them and spoke to them in parables how he goes
back to Satan. A kingdom divided and internally cannot survive. A divided family
cannot survive. If he will rebel against himself to wage war, he cannot
stand. He' s lost. No one can get into a man'
s house fort to plough with his trousseau. If you don' t tie
him up first, then he can break into the house. I really tell
you everything. Men, sins, and whatever blasphemy they say, may be
forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the holy spirit will have no forgiveness. He
will never bear his sin. Forever. He meant those who said he had
inside an unclean spirit. Her mother and her brothers arrive and since they were
called they called in and the people who were sitting around tell her to look
at your sister and your brothers and sisters are outside. They are looking for
you and he asked them who my mother and brothers are and looking at them
were around him, says these are my mother and my brothers. He who
does the will of God. That' s my brother and my sister and
my mother. They are strong words of Jesus that always impress. Some scribes
had accused him of acting by the power of Satan and the lord after showing
the absurdity of that slander, uttering those words, impressive and disconcerting words about
the non- forgiveness that anyone who sins against the Holy Spirit will deserve.
This sin consists in the refusal to accept the salvation that God offers to man
through the Holy Spirit, which acts by virtue of the sacrifice of the Cross.
God, as a good father, does not tire of offering his salvation,
and the Holy Spirit always seeks to cleanse us of our faults in order
to lead us to penance and distribute the fruits of redemption. But man can
close this offer, he can come to conversion. That' s what writing
will do to them because it' s usually called heart hardness. The heart
is hardened by painful experiences, by hard experiences. It is the situation of
those who lived a very painful experience and do not want to enter into another
adventure. It is precisely what happened to the licibros of Mouse after the resurrection.
The heart of the disciples was hard, because well- suffering is the
painful experience that prevents us from opening our heart. If sin against the Holy
Spirit consists of a radical closure of the soul to the saving action of God,
holiness, on the contrary, is a permanent openness to God and a
struggle to grow the gift that offers us and others benefit. When we understand
that holiness is a reaction of love with God, that it becomes life,
but that it is always in growth, always threatened, always beginning, then
we can really look for it in our daily life, at work, in
the family, in friendship relations, etcetera. The climate of our holiness is
that of God' s mercy. We want to be good children and behave
like such. The perfection that interests us is not that of those who pretend
to achieve all good and all to have defects, but of those who want
to live more in the logic of God' s love. Mercy is the
garment of light that the Lord has given us ebaptism. We must not let
this light go out that, on the contrary, we must increase in ourselves
every day to bring the good news to the world. Our inner tensions can
isolate us and often render us unable to truly love with all our soul.
We' ve suffered it many times right away. We condemn the one who
thinks embroidered differently. We find it difficult to give up our ideas and positions
to take others, to accept the opinions with which we do not agree.
Looking for the unit teamwork. Reconciliation is hard for us to ask forgiveness and
start trusting again after being let down. But we definitely do not stop having
the capacity to build bridges, tear down walls and build homes. She is
the saint among the saints, the most blessed, who teaches us the way
of holiness and accompanies us. She does not accept that we fall asleep and
sometimes takes us by the arms and judges to converse with her, comforts us,
frees us and sanctifies us. Mother doesn' t need many words.
They don' t need to be too angry to explain what' s happening
to us. It' s enough to muse over and over again. God,
save you, Mary. She united the apostles when they were very different.
She built bridges and brocaminos. She treats us all as her children,
without making any distinction between her children. He loves us all equally. Mary
does not separate, divide or judge. We are called to bear witness to
unity, to forge a new world in Christ and in the Church. I
gave you the blessing that the goodness and mercy of God, Father You,
have in their hearts that the gaze of love of God, son, penetrates
into your soul and purifies you from any restlessness and lack that can separate you
from God. May the love of God, the Holy Spirit grant you the
peace you need, may the tenderness of Mary, the mother of God and
our father caress and protect you, and may the strength and simplicity of Saint
Joseph, our father, Lord Thee, lead to heaven and the vision of
God, father son and holy spirit be upon you and always be accompanied amen
