1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:07,599
Prayer of the heart Saturday of the
twelfth week of ordinary time, come Holy

2
00:00:07,599 --> 00:00:11,560
Spirit, to give me your ever
new life. Fill me with the astonishment

3
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,519
of a child to admire the world
of life that I do not get used

4
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,519
to in life that let me be
surprised for every morning, because behind everything

5
00:00:19,559 --> 00:00:27,519
is your Love, my God help
me to recognize that routine does not exist,

6
00:00:27,719 --> 00:00:31,000
because everything is new every day,
because there is always something that is

7
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:37,520
beginning. Take all my life Holy
Spirit, and it will be from the

8
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:43,520
eternal novelty of your Love that this
day will not pass in vain and I

9
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,000
will be able to discover the message
that you have today for my life.

10
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:50,880
But, Holy Spirit, amen today
we celebrate the solitude of St Peter and

11
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:56,479
St Peter and St Paul apostles the
Gospel of St Matthew, chapter sixteen verses

12
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,320
thirteen to nineteen. At that time, upon arriving in the necessary region of

13
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,879
Philippi, to his questions, to
his disciples, who the people say is

14
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,040
the son of man. They answered
some that John the Baptist, others that

15
00:01:08,599 --> 00:01:12,840
thou wouldest, others that thou wouldest, one of the prophets, and I

16
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,840
ask him, and you, who
shall say that it is I, if

17
00:01:18,159 --> 00:01:21,799
Món, Peter, thy good word, saith unto him, Thou art,

18
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,760
the Messiah, the son of the
living God Jesus, answered him blessedly,

19
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,120
Simon the son of Jonah; for
that hath not been revealed unto thee by

20
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,560
any flesh and blood, but by
my father. What are the heavens.

21
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,239
Now I tell you, Thou art, Peter, and upon the stone I

22
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,239
will build in my church, and
the power of hell shall not melt it.

23
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,280
I will give you the keys of
the Kingdom of Heaven, what you

24
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,239
do on earth will be bound in
heaven and what you untie on earth will

25
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:53,000
be loosed in heaven. SSS,
Peter, answer thou art, the Christ,

26
00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:57,599
the son of God alive at once. Jesus pronounces the solemn declaration that

27
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,439
he defends once and for all you
give the role of Peter in the church

28
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,480
and I, in my turn I
say to you You are, Peter,

29
00:02:05,719 --> 00:02:08,199
and on this stone I will build
my church. To you will I give

30
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,919
the keys of the kingdom of heaven
and whatever you bind on earth will be

31
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,400
bound in heaven and whatever you bind
on earth will be loosed in heaven.

32
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:23,159
The three metaphors Jesus uses are in
itself very clear. Peter will be the

33
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,719
foundation of the rock rock on which
the Church building will rest, he will

34
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,960
have the keys of the Kingdom of
Heaven to open and close to whoever he

35
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,000
deems appropriate. And finally, he
may bind or loose, that is,

36
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,879
he may say or forbid whatever he
deems necessary for the life of the Church

37
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,159
which is and remains Christ' s. It is always the Church of Christ.

38
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,680
It is not the Church of Peter
Christ. Ask your apostles who the

39
00:02:50,719 --> 00:02:53,879
people say I am puts this question
only after they have completed their mission of

40
00:02:53,960 --> 00:03:00,439
teaching what the Father has told you. The case could be said to be

41
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,000
already on the table and now it
is time for the trial to be delivered.

42
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,520
However, people who have seen and
heard all the evidence necessary to recognize

43
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:14,280
him as messiahs do not end up
understanding and their designs, their signs.

44
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:20,280
It is as if a veil covered
their eyes and prevented them from giving a

45
00:03:20,759 --> 00:03:23,800
sure and convincing answer. You are
the Christ, the son of the Rio

46
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:28,159
God. For Peter, as for
Paul, later on, Christ is an

47
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,039
authentic enigma, difficult to say,
for example, what Peter would think when

48
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:38,800
he saw his teacher walking on the
waters or what feelings would run away in

49
00:03:38,879 --> 00:03:44,639
his heart. Then, when he
hears of Christ about you I will fix

50
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:47,439
my church and later he tells him
apart from my satan this mysterious one.

51
00:03:47,479 --> 00:03:51,960
Having seen it we would understand better
with the eyes of the faith given to

52
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,439
us by the father. As long
as the c is not the oxygen of

53
00:03:54,439 --> 00:03:59,599
our life, we will be able
to recognize Christ as Glysiah. That is

54
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,240
why Christ says to Peter, blessed
you Peter, because this has not been

55
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,840
revealed to you by any man,
but by my father, who is in

56
00:04:05,919 --> 00:04:10,800
heaven, the gift of faith is
what the Father does to Peter, not

57
00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:15,319
because of Peter' s merit,
but because of his personal qualities was a

58
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,519
fisherman, but because of God'
s own goodness. It is the gift

59
00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:24,560
or most precious and it is to
recognize Christ as a messiah, as the

60
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:28,399
true light to guide our steps towards
eternal life. And thanks to c Peter

61
00:04:29,079 --> 00:04:32,879
and Paul they will find the strength
to carry out their mission on earth.

62
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:38,519
Make a special prayer for the Pope
today. For example, this one I

63
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:45,519
copy you, Mr Gelling Father,
almighty and merciful saint that you have placed

64
00:04:45,519 --> 00:04:47,720
Pope Francis at the head of your
church. I pray you, bless him,

65
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,360
enlighten him, and send forth your
angels to go before him. Pour

66
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:59,519
out your holy spirit upon him.
I will grant a fesoid like the rock,

67
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:02,519
so that it can confirm us in
it and we will always remain in

68
00:05:02,519 --> 00:05:08,040
the truth. Give him the wisdom
that comes from your throne face so that

69
00:05:08,079 --> 00:05:12,959
his word may be posture, his
humble heart, and his wise decisions.

70
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,120
Make him surround himself with good collaborators. Proclaim the Catholic faith to a dying

71
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:21,519
world at a time and time,
so one will recognize your child. Take

72
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:26,319
care of the little ones, the
poor and the weak and protect the sheep

73
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,319
from the wolves. Lead him along
the path of commands so that he will

74
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:34,079
do what is pleasing to your eyes
and always and on every TV Glory that

75
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:39,759
goes most holy, protect you especially
and interpret for him all the saints.

76
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:45,040
Amen. Saul was a Jew trained, prepared and fulfilling the law. Saul

77
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:49,879
is in charge of reminding us well
by reading today' s Mass his exceptional

78
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:56,720
Jewish résumé, son of Alumnus,
I have done, this and the other

79
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,759
a blameless guy. Moreover, his
work as a persecutor of Christians does not

80
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,120
spring from his wickedness, but from
his zeal for upholding law and orthodoxy and,

81
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,720
in the midst of the vortex of
his relentless struggle for the purest Jesus,

82
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,720
the Nazarene breaks into his heart by
throwing a question at him why you

83
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:23,879
persecute me is the question he asks, which points to the depths of Saul

84
00:06:24,079 --> 00:06:28,720
' s heart or what is behind
your struggle. Saul does not, why,

85
00:06:29,399 --> 00:06:34,240
God, sure, Jesus comes into
our life and touches it the depth

86
00:06:34,319 --> 00:06:40,720
of what we love. Jesus comes
and disassembles us with an uncomfortable question that

87
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:45,519
frees us from our farce, from
our false discourse, from our deception.

88
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:51,040
Jesus comes to free us from our
own struggles, from those we face to

89
00:06:51,079 --> 00:06:57,639
safeguard ourselves by a thousand clothed with
God who are unarmed. Saul asks him

90
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,079
what he has to do to recognize
a gentleman whom he does not know how

91
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,920
to name yet. At first,
we should not be afraid not to know

92
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:12,399
how to recognize Jesus many times,
but we should listen to the hollow of

93
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:16,319
our hearts to what challenges him,
overwhelms him, makes him uncomfortable, displaces

94
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:21,160
him. That which we don'
t know how to name presents Sometimes suddenly

95
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:26,720
it can be Jesus the Nazarene.
Saul asks what he should do. Just

96
00:07:26,759 --> 00:07:30,560
like us, always thinking that following
that man is doing what to do.

97
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,959
Saul only knows how to comply.
He' s a professional complimenter, an

98
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:41,439
untiring chardor in law enforcement. Saul
asked what to do. Jesus Christ invited

99
00:07:41,439 --> 00:07:46,160
him to be a son like him
of God. The saulo of the law

100
00:07:46,439 --> 00:07:50,199
became the saulo of love, the
saulo of prestige gave way to the saulo

101
00:07:50,279 --> 00:07:56,199
of service, the saulo of persecution
gave way to the saud of worship.

102
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,759
It is only in the same way
that he gives way to the sau and

103
00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:05,000
I know that he took care of
Christ you from the blessing that God,

104
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,199
Fathers, will accompany you in your
heart, take care of you, make

105
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:09,959
you strong, joyful and faithful.
May God son, make you feel his

106
00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:15,079
warmth, his tenderness and his mercy, and give you his heart a heart

107
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:20,519
that in your heart any inquietud that
can make you suffer that your Holy Spirit

108
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:26,199
deduces you in intelligence, strength in
your heart renewed spirit and desire to love

109
00:08:26,319 --> 00:08:30,240
with all your heart that Blessed Mary
swallows in give her mother' s warmth

110
00:08:30,279 --> 00:08:33,840
and her loving and tender embrace and
St Joseph takes care of you with a

111
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,240
father' s heart, in the
name of the father and son and of

112
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:37,240
the Holy Spirit amen
