1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:09,679 Prayer of the heart Monday of the fifteenth week of ordinary time see Holy Spirit. 2 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:16,160 Today I want to give you my future until the last day of my 3 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:23,120 life. I want to walk illuminated by your light to know where I' 4 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,359 m going, so I don' t wear out energies on things that aren 5 00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:34,039 ' t worth it. I don' t want to be obsessed with the 6 00:00:34,079 --> 00:00:40,679 future and that' s why I prefer to give it in your presence and 7 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,280 let myself be carried away by your impulse Holy Spirit heals my anxiety so that 8 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:45,880 I accept that everything comes to its time and in its time. Or we 9 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:54,520 celebrate San good adventure. Doctor of the Church. The Gospel is from St 10 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,880 Matteus chapter ten verses, thirty- four from now on. At that time 11 00:01:00,159 --> 00:01:04,159 Jesus said to his apostles. Don' t think I' ve come to 12 00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:07,480 earth you sow peace. I have not come to sow peace, but swords. 13 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,959 I' ve come to foe the man with his father, the daughter, 14 00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:14,920 his mother, the new one, his mother- in- law. 15 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,480 The enemies of Caga, some of them will be those of their own house. 16 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,439 Whoever loves his father and mother more than me is not worthy of me. 17 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:26,879 He who loves his son I, his daughter more than me, is 18 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,599 not worthy of me. Whoever doesn' t take his cross and follow me 19 00:01:30,719 --> 00:01:34,799 is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it and whoever 20 00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:38,680 loses his life for me will find it. He who receives you receives me 21 00:01:38,719 --> 00:01:44,359 and he who receives me receives him who sent me. He who receives a 22 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,920 prophet because he is a prophet will have a prophet' s wage? And 23 00:01:48,959 --> 00:01:52,120 the one who receives a righteous, why is it fair? The one who 24 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,120 gives to drink will have just pay, even if it is only a glass 25 00:01:56,159 --> 00:02:00,000 of fresh water to one of these poor ones. Just because it' s 26 00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:02,319 mine, my disciple won' t lose his pay. I assure you. 27 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:09,479 When Jesus had finished giving these instructions to his twelve disciples, he departed there 28 00:02:09,599 --> 00:02:16,439 to teach and preach in others in their cities. Lord thank you for this 29 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:25,120 moment of prayer. Grant me the light to come out of that false peace 30 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:34,919 in which I settle my life, avoiding the authentic commitment of my faith Holy 31 00:02:35,039 --> 00:02:39,800 Spirit fill me with your grace so that I can deepen in what you mean 32 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:47,080 to me today through the Gospel. Saint Mary, Mother of Mount Carmel, 33 00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:54,360 Give me the grace to know how to listen to your son, Lord Grant 34 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:59,680 me, who gives me the Baiglesia is always marked by the seal of generosity 35 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:06,400 and joy. Pope Francis says," Let us keep our gaze fixed on 36 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:15,280 Jesus, because the c that is our yes to realization, to the filial 37 00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:22,759 relationship with him comes from him. It comes from Jesus you are the only 38 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,960 mediator of this realization between us and our father, who is in heaven. 39 00:03:25,879 --> 00:03:34,879 Jesus is his son and we are his children. For this reason, Jesus 40 00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:39,159 says I have come to bring division. It is not that Jesus wants to 41 00:03:39,199 --> 00:03:46,080 divide men among himself. On the contrary, Jesus is our peace, our 42 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,560 reconciliation. But this peace is not the peace of the graves, it is 43 00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:55,719 not neutrality. Jesus does not bring neutrality. That peace is not a compound 44 00:03:57,199 --> 00:04:01,520 at any cost to follow Jesus with forsaking evil, selfishness and choosing good, 45 00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:08,159 truth, justice, even when this requires sacrifice and renunciation of one' s 46 00:04:08,199 --> 00:04:15,040 own interests. And this does divide, we know, divide even the closest 47 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:20,199 relationships. But attention, it is not Jesus who divides. He puts the 48 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:26,519 criterion of living for themselves or living for God and for others to become, 49 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:33,360 serve or serve. Obey self to obey God. Here is how Jesus is 50 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:41,519 a sign of contradiction. Today, as yesterday, Jesus has few friends and 51 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:46,120 humanly speaking being a prophet of misfortunes is not the best way to attract people 52 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:55,199 to general trouble. We take these warnings as a kind of omen and end 53 00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:00,360 up blaming the evil that happens to us just after the one who sought to 54 00:05:00,399 --> 00:05:08,800 warn us of the possible misfortunes of our life. San are prophetic, unpleasant 55 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:15,279 forgivenesss, because they tell us uncomfortable things that do not correspond to what we 56 00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:20,480 wanted for ourselves. But not listening to these tips is a ridiculous attitude, 57 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:27,079 because it is like trying not to see the sign that indicates the path we 58 00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:30,160 have been looking for so long and with so much anxiety. Perhaps we too 59 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:36,680 were running away from God' s warnings or as capricious children after Dad' 60 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:42,639 s scolding we say okay, excuse me, I' ll do what you 61 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,600 told me and then we behave our way. But when we repeat the same 62 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:54,120 mistake for the umpteenth time, it is we who suffer the consequences of our 63 00:05:54,120 --> 00:06:00,399 stubbornness. The message of Jesus, when accepted in its entirety, changes the 64 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:13,000 mentality, changes the whole mind of the world, because it is only Christ 65 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:19,120 who can give them true happiness on this earth. Lord Well, you know 66 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:24,680 that I want to be holy, but that I easily forget that the holiness 67 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:30,040 of that forge in the renunciation of self- denial, generosity, self- 68 00:06:30,759 --> 00:06:36,079 interest, personal oblivion to favor the good of others, makes it possible to 69 00:06:36,199 --> 00:06:43,959 prove that there is greater happiness in giving than in receiving and helping to modify 70 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,879 my holiness in the daily evidence of the virtues that magnify my love for You 71 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,800 and for my neighbor, that closest one that I later forget. I give 72 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:57,160 thee the blessing that the Lord be in thy heart, that thou mayest love 73 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,600 with all him, that he may be in thy lips, that thou mayest 74 00:07:00,639 --> 00:07:03,920 speak with strength, and of his resurrection, that he may be in thy 75 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,240 arms, that he may work without rest for his love, and that I 76 00:07:09,319 --> 00:07:12,959 may post his kingdom, that he may be in thy feet, that thou 77 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,040 mayest walk in the paths of peace, that the Lord may show thee, 78 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:21,240 that he may be in thy eyes clean, that thy eyes may see Jesus 79 00:07:21,319 --> 00:07:26,800 in others, that he may be in thy joy, that thou mayest never 80 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,040 lose it, though thou have reason, and mayest give to others in the 81 00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:30,040 name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy spirit Amen.
