1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:06,519 Prayer of the heart Saturday of the sixth week of Easter. Come holy spirit 2 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:14,640 and help me to put in your presence everything that worries me, everything that 3 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,399 troubles me, everything that disturbs me, disturbs my peace. You know what 4 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:24,359 my deepest concerns are, but I want to tell you, because it' 5 00:00:24,399 --> 00:00:28,039 s better to share them with you than to pretend to face them with my 6 00:00:28,039 --> 00:00:32,159 own human forces. Listen to me, sir, because I cry to you 7 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,920 with all my soul to you, I raise my arms and I beg you 8 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:43,079 to help me. Today we celebrate Arabad de cluny Samayolo hem which renovated the 9 00:00:43,119 --> 00:00:49,119 monasteries in France and Genitalia. The Gospel of St John chapter sixteen verses twenty 10 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,079 - three onwards. At that time Jesus said to his disciples. I really 11 00:00:54,159 --> 00:00:57,479 tell you if you ask for something from the father and my name will roll. 12 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,920 So far you haven' t asked for anything. My happy name and 13 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,560 you will receive so that you to the idia will be complete. I told 14 00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:08,400 you about this in comparisons. It comes to the hour when I will no 15 00:01:08,439 --> 00:01:11,480 longer speak in comparisons, but I will sob you from the father clearly. 16 00:01:11,799 --> 00:01:17,599 That day you will ask in my name and I do not tell you that 17 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:22,280 I will beg the father for you, for the father himself loves you because 18 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,200 you love me and believe that I came out of God, came out of 19 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,120 the Father and came into the world. I leave the world again and go 20 00:01:27,239 --> 00:01:37,319 to my father. They say it is a saying that works are love, 21 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,599 but for a Christian, if the works were done by fulfillment and without love, 22 00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:45,120 they would be of no use to you. Fruit of humility. It 23 00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:49,680 is putting all the means so that one is able, so that, even 24 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,200 though we do not know and insufficient, he will not risk shortening the things 25 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,879 of God. Happy and you will be given how much lack, how much 26 00:01:57,879 --> 00:02:04,040 faith we lack, how you ask the Lord very much and I was not 27 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,960 strong and convinced, convinced to get, or maybe we ask to see what 28 00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:15,719 happens or to ask something does not faint says St Joseph Mary, no matter 29 00:02:15,719 --> 00:02:19,759 how unworthy the person is, however imperfect, that prayer results if it rises 30 00:02:19,759 --> 00:02:23,159 humble and persevering. God always listens to her in the Gospel of Luke. 31 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:30,479 We read come and you will be given. These words are spoken in a 32 00:02:30,599 --> 00:02:35,560 positive sense. They don' t say, sir, if we don' 33 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,360 t ask, we won' t be given, but happy. Happy Joseph 34 00:02:38,439 --> 00:02:45,560 Mary, when he served fifty years of priesthood. He said you are, 35 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,400 who you are the utmost goodness. I am the last dirty rag in this 36 00:02:50,439 --> 00:02:53,479 rotten world. And yet you look at me and you look for me and 37 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,879 you love me. Lord, may my children look upon you and seek you 38 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,960 and love you, Lord, may I look to you and love you. 39 00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:07,879 And in one of his letters he commented on these words. Let us therefore 40 00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:13,639 run to prayer. Let us bow down to the tabernacle and make that exclamation 41 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,159 our own. Oh, my God, I love you, but teach me 42 00:03:17,159 --> 00:03:20,360 to love prayer. It is the Christian' s weapon, his secret, 43 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,479 the reason for the conscience of being a child of God. It' s 44 00:03:23,599 --> 00:03:27,159 a good thing to be a kid. When a man asks for a favor, 45 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,639 he must accompany the letter of his merits to the request. When the 46 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,680 one you ask for a little, like the children have no merit. Just 47 00:03:35,919 --> 00:03:39,080 say it. I' m Funno' s son ah, sir, and 48 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,520 he only told your soul. I am a son of God. We must 49 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,439 be convinced that the Lord is willing to grant us whatever we ask. He 50 00:03:47,479 --> 00:03:53,560 multiplied the pairs to get him three days and we' ve been doing a 51 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,280 lot more. That' s why we can do what he says. Have 52 00:03:55,439 --> 00:04:00,680 even more audacity and when you tell him, you need something, always leaving 53 00:04:01,199 --> 00:04:06,439 heaven and do not ask say Lord Jesus, I want this the other, 54 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,520 because so ask the children. Prayer is onipotent and if yours is not, 55 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:18,319 it is because it is not, as should be cofiada abandoned. We seek 56 00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:24,279 to do his will and re- sembled by humble human means, because we 57 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:29,360 are convinced that without him it was not worth trying anything or even asking for 58 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,519 what we owe. We often repeat that verse of the Eucharistic anthem to pot 59 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:42,360 grotesque peto copetivi latropennides. I ask what the repentant adn asked for and I 60 00:04:42,439 --> 00:04:46,959 am always moved to ask as a repentant thief, he acknowledged that yes, 61 00:04:47,519 --> 00:04:53,759 that he did deserve such atrocious punishment and with one word stole the heart from 62 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,759 Christ and opened the doors of heaven. And we must be very ambitious, 63 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,480 because God' s power is infinite and his love for each one cannot be 64 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:09,920 better or more generously demonstrated. He deserves our trust. It deserves our confidence 65 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,480 that our treatment and requests and made with simplicity, admirable and therefore confident, 66 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,519 whether we turn to God the Father or to the Son or to the holy 67 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:25,680 spirit of prayer well done. We always go out on fire, ready to 68 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,279 conquer the world for God and with a continuous presence of God in prayer, 69 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:36,959 the Lord makes us understand what we should do, how to explain ourselves and 70 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:43,000 when to do it without fear to ask them to be effective, to ask 71 00:05:43,639 --> 00:05:46,680 for the problems they have and another looks if not how he asks the caranea 72 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:53,120 for his daughter with humility and knowing that she does not deserve to be heard, 73 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,319 but going to the mercy of God or the paralytic carried by the hands 74 00:05:57,319 --> 00:06:01,879 and making his friends who get for him the health and forgiveness of sins or 75 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,160 Bartimaeus, insisting until they remain aphonic and without human respect. And he gets 76 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:08,959 up, when he says the foreman without laziness throwing at the mantle Lazarus does 77 00:06:09,079 --> 00:06:12,040 not even ask him that he was his friend and they were drawn fondly habitually. 78 00:06:12,519 --> 00:06:15,519 Moreover, Jesus invites us not to remain in mere words but to express 79 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:23,560 ourselves in our way of crying. God the Father, teaches us the Master 80 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:29,319 wants to see his children behave as such without fear of addressing us with insistence 81 00:06:29,319 --> 00:06:32,199 to those who love us deeply. Jesus encourages listeners to realize their dignity as 82 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:41,519 children, not to stand by and experience God’ s goodness. Perhaps that 83 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,959 is why he insists on us happy, seek and love because our father, 84 00:06:46,399 --> 00:06:50,319 God is willing to meet us. David, the setting, through some examples 85 00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:56,759 Jesus shows us and shows us how the affection of the father is far from 86 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,600 the petty calculus and does not want to have to do with the logic of 87 00:07:01,639 --> 00:07:06,480 strict exchange of receiving to give. And they point out to us that if 88 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,879 we, being evil, know how to give good things to those who ask 89 00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:14,879 us with laiscence. The more our father God, who not only wants to 90 00:07:15,319 --> 00:07:18,519 brown things, but to donate. He grasps orgenously upon spirit, the Holy 91 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:23,959 Spirit. Let us be clear to Mary that prayer and the request of the 92 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,879 Christian must be marked by this conscience of sons and daughters of God rests in 93 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:35,120 divine sharpening. God is your father, your father, he' s a 94 00:07:35,279 --> 00:07:40,480 father, your father asks for what he asked for the arror undertaken. Call 95 00:07:41,199 --> 00:07:45,639 him a father many times and I will say at his hours that you love 96 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:53,480 him, that you love him very much, that you feel the pride and 97 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,600 strength of being his son, all the blessing that, gentlemen, in your 98 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,959 heart that you may know love with all of him, that they are your 99 00:07:59,959 --> 00:08:03,199 lips, that you may speak with strength, the strength, that your arms 100 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,680 may be, that he may work unfailingly for his sake and possess his kingdom, 101 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,560 that he may be on your feet, that you may come on the 102 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,399 paths of peace. Lord will show you that I am in your clean turn, 103 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,680 that all may see Jesus in others, that I may be in your 104 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,560 joy, that they may never appeal to me, even though you have goats 105 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,680 and may chance others in the name of father and son and holy spirit Amen.
