Friends of the Rosary,
In today’s main reading, from St. Luke 18:1-8, Christ the Lord teaches us, through a parable, the need for perseverance in prayer.
When we give to ourselves, we become weak and forget to be humble. Our perseverance develops trust and confidence in God, keeping us close to him.
The trials of life that the Lord allows led us to spiritual progress. We might wonder why He is not answering our urgent appeals. It’s not that He wants to punish us. It’s that our loving God wants to help us in our own road to Heaven, as He is supervising the journey of each one of us.
Many saints in heaven would never have become saints if God had not allowed them to struggle longer than they wished against both spiritual and physical trials and difficulties.
In other words, “Ask and you shall receive,” but perhaps not what you wanted, but what God knew you needed.”
Ave Maria!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
