Heart prayer Saturday of the seventh week of ordinary time. Help me holy spirit
so that I can look at others with eyes, with your patient eyes.
I want to recognize your love for all human beings, also for those people
that I cannot love with patience and compassion. They are all important, but
the heart to heart loves jesus all its sacred and valuables. No one has
been born by chance, but it is the eternal project of your love.
Free me from condemning and prejudging others. I wanted to imagine your sufferings,
your anxieties and those weaknesses that they have difficulty overcoming. Help me always find
some excuse to excuse them and not look at them with bad eyes. It
pours in me all the patience I need. Come holy spirit. Today we
celebrate Saint Veda and Venerable, perfido and doctor of the Church. The Gospel
of St Mark, chapter ten branches thirteen to sixteen. At that time children
came to Jesus to touch them, but the disciples scolded them. When he
saw him, he became angry and told him to let the children come to
me. Don' t stop him from what they are like. It is
the Kingdom of God. You guys. I am sure that anyone who does
not accept God’ s Kingdom as a child will not enter into it and
embrace them and bless them by imposing his hands on him. Eh I like
this gospel very much today because it describes very well how it is the heart
of the Lord Accept with so much affection the children that the apostles scolded.
But that phrase is strong. Jesus. He got angry. Jesus is angry
because he sees that the apostles do not just understand they do not see what
it means to become children they will understand it after the Holy Spirit enlightens him,
enlightening them at Pentecost accepted the Kingdom of God as children. And really
a wonderful goal, because I think we have to be children in the spirit,
even if we die of old age smiling. I like that phrase that
I read years ago of St Joseph Mary and that really defines well in the
last years of St John Paul II. Moreover, I think it is good
that we are not afraid, that we do not take ourselves too seriously or
make a world of everything that we think is important and really is not,
that we are expected of the attitude of the children and can embrace us and
thus summarize the attitude of the children that we should imitate. I give you
some virtues. Simplicity, what a scandal so transparent, total absence of bending,
of all complications and second intentions, the sincerity that is frankness and spontaneity.
The child says what he feels and feels what he says. He doesn
' t falsify things, he doesn' t know protocols or evidence. The
trust of older people over all their parents, who are easily abandoned and trusted
without calculations, astonishment and curiosity, as everything overwhelms and admires him. Everything
for him is new. That is why the availability that is open to everything
is never bored without conditioning or resabios the filial sense that seizes his whole life
and that transforms into consciousness of being loved, protected, helped and in loving
dependence with respect to his parents, knowing that he has absolute need of them
and that in them he is safer than in himself. Therefore, sincere simple
ones, confident with the capacity of amazement available and with a great sense of
children of God, in need of our Father God, even if the years
pass and you do not know that the body is no longer capable of what
it will be before you that in your soul you will not stop being a
child to live always with God, because in this way he will be able
to embrace you with his grace and transform your heart to love him more and
more of what now virgin, many times I saw of lulzura and hope ours
to you we call, do not leave us. My mother, I give
the blessing God, the source of all light, who enlightened the hearts of
the disciples and poured out in them the holy spirit bless you and grant you
the abundance of his gifts, the admirable fire that appeared upon the disciples,
purify your hearts of all with his light the spirit which, by proclaiming the
visme faith gathering to the peoples of different tongues, makes you persevere in that
same faith and come thanks to it, to the vision that you hope for
and the blessing of God, almighty father son and holy spirit upon you and
abide always amen
