Prayer of the heart Wednesday of the fifteenth week of ordinary time. Come Holy
Spirit so that I may find wisdom in the midst of my limits, discomfort
and weariness, for the sun that sets is as beautiful When I am healthy
as when I am sick. Help me to appreciate the beauty of things beyond
my moods. Help me enjoy what you give me in the middle of my
troubles. Come Holy Spirit and teach me to live, because many times I
can only look at what worries me, what I lack, what I dislike,
as if there was nothing more than that. Today we celebrate San Alejo,
Mendigo. The Gospel is from St Matthew, chapter eleven verses, twenty
- five to twenty- seven at that time exclaimed Jesus you Di. Thank
you, Father, Lord say of earth, why have you hidden these things
from the wise men of understanding and revealed them to the simple people. Yes,
Father, that' s the best way you' ve seen it You
' ve given it all to my father. And no one knows the son
more than the father. And no one knows the father, but the son
of him whom he said he would reveal it to him. From the incarnation
of the verb, the mystery is revealed in the event of Jesus Christ,
which is contemporary to every human person as a time, in any time and
place, through the church of which Mary is mother and moderate God has hidden
these things from the wise and understanding, making them known to the little ones,
to the humble, to the simple of heart. For her own sake,
at the call of God, the Virgin Mary manifests divine love among men.
In this sense, she, with simplicity and mother sara, continues to
indicate the only light and the only truth. His son, Jesus Christ,
which is the definitive answer to the question about the meaning of life and the
fundamental questions that are beset today there are also so many men and women.
It is necessary to put yourself in the glasses of faith to contemplate all the
wonders and treasures that God made for us, rivers seas, snowy mountains,
sunrises and sunsets, the love of a mother and the caress of a father.
However, it is just to look at those wonders of God to recognize
his mercy and love. Light by virtue of people, circumstances and events,
acquires a new value that they could never have. Indeed, coming into the
world and coming and seeing among us, Jesus has always preferred simplicity and clarity
to darkness and wickedness. However, we can say that God is dark and
incomprehensible even to the proud who have a heart closed in themselves, who think
they have no need of anyone, neither of God nor of themselves alone.
It is the same man who creates invental complications to make inaccessible the knowledge and
acceptance of God' s will, as well as can make the leap to
faith if his heart is recharged by the useless baggage of his hypocrisy and his
many anxieties. That wisdom is heavy on those who consider themselves wise in the
world, but it is vital for Christian cinema, because it is put with
its eyes closed in the hands of God. Let us learn, therefore,
to practice the humility of the heart and mind and learn to discover to God
the everyday, realizing that he is in the small of heart and that we
must have the heart full of joy and peace, because his God is with
us. You really want to be holy, you ask Joseph Mary, you
do the little duty of every moment to what you owe and is in what
you do. It says on the way to number eight hundred and fifteen.
He would later develop this realistic and concrete perspective of holiness in the midst of
the world in the homily. To love the world in the past, passionately
leave behind dreams, false idealisms, fantasies, what I usually call mystical tinkering.
I wish I hadn' t married. I wish I didn' t
have this profession. I wish I had more health. I wish I was
young, I wish I was old. You have already soberly changed to the
most material and immediate reality, which is where it is. God is the
Lord this saint of the ordinary, invites us to truly immerse ourselves in the
adventure of the everyday. There is no other way, my children, or
we know, to find God in our ordinary life or we will never find
him. God is near, says the 16th Fighter. This is also the
way the exan José María was sweetly accompanying the interlocutors. We live as if
the Lord were far away, should not the stars and we do not consider
that He is always at His side. How to find him, how to
establish a relationship with him. Know it well, there is something divine holy
hidden in the most common situations that comes to you, to each of you
to discover said Sirxan Joseph Mary. In essence, it is a question of
transforming all the circumstances of ordinary life, pleasant or less pleasant, into dialogue,
into sources of dialogue with God and, therefore, of contemplation. For
Saint Joseph Mary, the aspiration of a life of authentic relationship is intimately linked
to a search for personal improvement through the acquisition of human discharges, attachments,
attachments, forgiveness in the life of grace, patience before the rebellious teenager,
a sense of friendship and a capacity for fascination in relations with others, serenity
in the face of a painful failure, etcetera. Here, according to Joseph
Mary, is the primal Madrid of dialogue with God, the field of exercise
of sanctification. It is about materializing the spiritual life, avoiding temptation, leading
as a double life the inner life, the life of relationship with God,
one part, and another part, different and separate, the professional social family
life, full of small earthly realities. Our daily life is essentially a life
of relationship of relatives and aristos professionals sources of joy, as well as inevitable
decisions. The secret of knowing how to recognize Christ who has met us in
our brothers, men and in one person is a loose kiss, but we
are all part of the same divine poem that God writes with the aid of
our freedom. From this intimate and continuous dialogue, Christ should also naturally rive
the desire to speak to others about him, the postulate is the love of
God who overflows by giving himself to others. Everything that is done out of
love acquires beauty and is magnified. This is undoubtedly the last word of the
spirituality of St Joseph Mary. It is not about trying to do great deeds
or expecting extraordinary circumstances to behave heroically. The question is rather to strive humbly
in the small duty of every moment, setting out all the love and all
the human perfection of which we are capable. Thank you, Holy Spirit,
for your gifts of understanding, wisdom and knowledge. It allows me, following
Mary' s example, to use them for good, not to close my
pride or undersufficiency or pride in good, wanting to put me to depend on
myself, rather than to abandon myself in the mercy of love, with the
confidence with which a child rests in the arms of his father. I give
you the blessing desvis in your heart that you may know frame with all him,
that he may be on your lips, that you may open with strong
faith of his resurrection, that he may be in your arms, that you
may work without rest for his sake, and that they may post of his
kingdom, that it may be on your feet, that you may walk through
the whole of peace, that the Lord may show you that he is in
your clean gaze, that your eyes may see Jesus in others, that he
may be in your joy, that you may never lose, even if you
have reason and may call upon others the name of the father and son and
of the Holy Spirit Amen.
