1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:08,679
Prayer of the heart Tuesday of the
eighth week of ordinary time. Holy Spirit

2
00:00:08,919 --> 00:00:15,279
You are the soul of my soul
I humbly adore you enlighten me, strengthen

3
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:22,359
me, guide me, comfort me
and, as it corresponds to the eternal

4
00:00:22,399 --> 00:00:24,320
plan of the Father God, reveal
to me your desires. Let me know

5
00:00:24,359 --> 00:00:28,879
what eternal love desires of me.
Let me know what I must suffer.

6
00:00:29,559 --> 00:00:33,240
Let me know what I must suffer, let me know what it is with

7
00:00:33,359 --> 00:00:38,840
silent modesty and in prayer I must
accept, carry and endure. Yeah.

8
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:43,679
Holy Spirit Give me, to know
your will and the will of the Father,

9
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:51,240
for all my life I want to
be nothing other than a perpetual continued

10
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:57,520
yes to the desires and will of
the eternal Father God. Today we celebrate

11
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:07,120
St German of Paris, the Gospel
of St Mark, Chapter ten, verse

12
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,280
twenty- eight to thirty- one. At that time, Peter began to

13
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:17,680
tell Jesus you see that we have
left everything and followed you. And Jesus

14
00:01:17,719 --> 00:01:23,480
told you that whoever leaves home or
brothers or sisters or mother or father or

15
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:30,040
children or lands for me and by
the Gospel will now receive now a hundred

16
00:01:30,599 --> 00:01:38,040
times more in houses, brothers and
sisters and mothers and children and lands?

17
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:46,560
Many first will be the last and
many last will be the first. These

18
00:01:46,599 --> 00:01:49,439
words of the Lord that we will
go into the Gospel are very comforting.

19
00:01:51,920 --> 00:02:00,200
He assures us that he who leaves
all things promises that he will now receive

20
00:02:00,239 --> 00:02:05,760
at that time one hundred months more
houses and brothers and sisters, mothers and

21
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,159
children and lands with persecutions and in
the future age eternal life. But we

22
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,439
can' t miss a detail that
the gentleman wants to appear on this list

23
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:20,639
of benefits for whoever leaves all things. I imagine you' ve noticed persecutions.

24
00:02:23,039 --> 00:02:28,400
It says clearly that our life will
not cease to be cross, persecution

25
00:02:28,439 --> 00:02:32,919
that when we have and love for
God, we see it from another hepoptic

26
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:38,280
and thus we understand the thought of
St Joseph Mary that allows me to do

27
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:43,560
so. It sounds very strong to
say so, sorry says thoughtlessly on the

28
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,960
way one hundred and ninety- four. I' m going to tell you

29
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:51,599
what are the treasures of man on
earth so that you don' t despise

30
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,759
him hunger, thirst heat, cold, pain, dishonor, poverty, loneliness,

31
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:04,000
betrayal, slander, jail are treasures, but how we could come to

32
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,719
grasp and I' ll accept that
this is so. If we believe the

33
00:03:06,759 --> 00:03:10,520
misfortunes of space, it will surprise
us with eternals in the latter. Blessed

34
00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:16,319
be ye, and ye shall be
when they revile, persecute us, and

35
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:23,000
lie against you with all manner of
evil for my sake; rejoice, and

36
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,400
rejoice: for the heavens shall be
great in your reward. These words left

37
00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:30,599
a deep imprint on the hearts of
the hearers and have always left it in

38
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:37,120
the disciples of all time. Happy
are you, how not to be attracted

39
00:03:37,159 --> 00:03:40,240
to the words of the Lord God. He wants our happiness. He has

40
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:46,000
placed that desire in the depths of
our being and with the viraventitudes shows us

41
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:52,240
the only way to eternal bliss to
which man' s heart aspires. Heaven

42
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,360
' s happiness reaches us at the
price of a miserable life on earth.

43
00:03:55,599 --> 00:04:00,960
God does not grant us grace over
natural grace, which is a breach of

44
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:11,479
glory. Now we are his children, and what father does not want to

45
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,480
see his children happy. Packed in
this spirit of divine sonship. St Joseph

46
00:04:15,519 --> 00:04:21,199
Mary affirmed with joy. I am
increasingly persuaded the happiness of heaven is for

47
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:28,199
those who know how to be happy
on earth. The path of misfortunes that

48
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,360
Jesus points out is very different from
that which the human vision attached to the

49
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,639
earth seeks, which puts happiness in
the satisfaction of self- love through riches

50
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:43,360
the power of pleasures. Saint Augustine
already noted that all men seek happiness and,

51
00:04:43,439 --> 00:04:47,439
however, most do not know how
to achieve it. Jesus has the

52
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:54,399
answer that is surprising for the choice, for the common opinion, blessed,

53
00:04:54,399 --> 00:04:58,240
the poor of spirit, the meek, those who weep, the books of

54
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,079
heart and adds the ho last adventure. For my sake, this is the

55
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,839
key. This is the key.
The release for love, meekness for love,

56
00:05:08,319 --> 00:05:11,600
sacrifice, for love, chastity for
love, for love of jes,

57
00:05:11,759 --> 00:05:15,360
for supernatural love for God and for
others, for God, who is the

58
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:21,040
holy spirit pours out our souls.
Jesus Christ has set us as lamps,

59
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:26,360
that we might become teachers of others, that we might act as torment,

60
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,519
that we might live as angels among
men or adults, among children, as

61
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:36,600
spiritual ones of people only rational,
that we might be seed, that we

62
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:43,040
might bear fruit. You wouldn'
t have to open your mouth. If

63
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,439
our life were to shine like this. They would overwhelm the words, if

64
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:56,319
we showed the works, there would
not be only one pagan if we were

65
00:05:56,319 --> 00:06:00,160
truly Christians. The Lord teaches us
a supernatural logic, which is science to

66
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:05,800
be happy by building our life on
rock the sense of divine afreation, identification

67
00:06:05,879 --> 00:06:11,720
with Christ, and not on the
ground I mobilize, material well- being

68
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:17,879
or success or divine affiliation, edification
with Christ or precarious forgiveness illusions that do

69
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:26,879
not resist the onslaught of the contrarieties. It is necessary to soak up this

70
00:06:27,399 --> 00:06:30,199
new logic in which the words of
the apostle are fulfilled to the letter.

71
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,360
What the world considers to be eschewing
and foolishness is, however, it says

72
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:39,720
God' s strength and wisdom of
God. The person who lives, according

73
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:44,839
to the Beatitudes, transmits around him
the good smell of Christ, a gentle

74
00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:50,319
perfume that pleases without drawing attention.
It is a conduct full of naturalness,

75
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:56,519
equal in many respects to that of
so many of the same position, culture

76
00:06:56,519 --> 00:06:59,519
and procession. And yet, it
has unequivocal signs to a s a s

77
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,720
a n n nsto, the inner
happiness, the deep violence that the Lord

78
00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:08,879
promises to those who live like this
for his love and also external signs.

79
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:14,759
As a testimony an ancient writing describing
the life of the early Christians with a

80
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,600
pagan world. Christians, says the
Letter of Onetto, and Christians are not

81
00:07:20,199 --> 00:07:25,959
distinguished from other men neither by the
place in which they live, by language

82
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:30,759
nor by the way of life.
They do not, in fact, have

83
00:07:30,879 --> 00:07:35,639
their own cities, nor use unusual
speech, nor do they carry an extinct

84
00:07:35,639 --> 00:07:39,439
kind of life. They live in
the flesh, but not according to the

85
00:07:39,439 --> 00:07:42,959
flesh. They live on earth,
but their citizenship even in heaven, obey

86
00:07:43,519 --> 00:07:47,680
the established ecclesiastical laws forgiveness and with
their way of life, exceed those laws.

87
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,879
To put it simply, Christians are
in the world what the soul is

88
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:58,439
in the body. The soul,
in fact, is scattered and s s

89
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,600
s s. S. S.
S. Yes, by all the vibrate

90
00:08:01,639 --> 00:08:05,439
of the body. So too Christians
are scattered throughout all the cities of the

91
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,920
world. The soul inhabits the body, but it does not come from the

92
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,079
body. Christians live in the world, but they are not of the world.

93
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:20,199
The soul is perfected by mortification in
eating and drinking. Also the Histians,

94
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:26,439
constantly mortified, multiply more and more. So important is the position that

95
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:31,199
God has assigned to them, from
which it is not lawful for them to

96
00:08:31,199 --> 00:08:37,879
desert. Jesus asks us for assistance
governed by divine logic, life according to

97
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:43,360
the spirit radically oriented to the love
of God, not opposed to forgiveness,

98
00:08:43,399 --> 00:08:48,120
which opposes life according to the flesh
subjected to self- love. And in

99
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:54,960
this demand of Christ we warn a
constant call to conversion, a change in

100
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,399
the heart and mind that consists in
becoming like children. I praise you,

101
00:08:58,519 --> 00:09:03,639
Father, lord of heaven and earth, for you have hidden these things from

102
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,039
the user and wise and revealed them
to the little ones. Yes, Father,

103
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:13,440
so was your pleasure. The Lord' s Beatitudes are inseparable from his

104
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:18,960
cross. Whoever proclaimed the poor blessed
in spirit allowed them to strip him of

105
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:24,960
everything and did not even have a
tomb of his own. He who declared

106
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,320
the meek happy offered his back to
the whips and his cheeks to the slapped

107
00:09:30,399 --> 00:09:35,440
ones. He who taught to suffer
with joy persecution and insults was persecuted,

108
00:09:35,279 --> 00:09:43,679
insulted and despised. From the Mount
of Livings the summit of another mountain,

109
00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:50,320
the Cumbre, the Calvary, seems
to be diverse In the first one he

110
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,559
taught us how you are happy.
In the second he gave his life to

111
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,039
reach us that happiness and teach them
by his example the way of eternal glory.

112
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,879
Every beatitude is like a blade of
Christ that he himself has wanted to

113
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,080
teach them so that we will follow
the steps seriously. The saints took these

114
00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:16,679
words of Jesus seriously. They believed
that their publicity would come from translating them

115
00:10:16,159 --> 00:10:22,480
concretely from their consistency and they proved
their truth in the daily confrontation with experience.

116
00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:26,840
In spite of the trials, the
shadows and failures already enjoyed deep joy

117
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:35,759
on earth in Communion with Christ.
In him they discovered present of time the

118
00:10:35,919 --> 00:10:39,320
initial germ of the future crane of
God’ s Kingdom. This is precisely

119
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:46,200
what is meant by the persecutions that
we believed in the ungodly Gospel. This

120
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:52,080
also covered them with very particular Mary
Most Holy, who lived in unique communion

121
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,240
with the incarnate verb, giving herself
unreservedly to her saving destiny. For this

122
00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:01,879
reason he was granted to listen with
anticipation regarding the sermon on the mountain,

123
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:09,360
the beatitude that summarizes all the others, well adventurous you who have believed,

124
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:15,240
for what the Lord has told you
will be fulfilled. I give you the

125
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:20,799
blessing God almighty. Bless you with
all manner of heavenly goods so that you

126
00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:24,480
may be holy and restable in His
presence, pour out upon you the riches

127
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,600
of His grace. Teach you by
the word of truth and by the Vangelius

128
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,279
of salvation. Make us rich with
the fraternal charity and blessing of God,

129
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:39,080
almighty father, son and holy spirit, come down upon you and remain always to come
