Friends of the Rosary,
In today’s reading (Matthew 19:16-22), Christ Jesus encourages us, through the words to the rich young man, to be perfect and cultivate a treasure in heaven by avoiding any attachment to material possessions.
He says, “If you wish to be perfect, go,
sell what you have and give to the poor,
and you will have treasure in heaven.
Then come, follow me.”
God, pure love, means a life in friendship with him, of self-forgetting love. This should bring us to cut out of our lives certain things that impede love.
Bishop Barron writes, “The spiritual life, at the highest pitch, is about giving your life away, and this is why his many possessions are a problem.”
“And at this point the young man tragically balks.”
Christ Jesus is the fulfillment, the infinite good and love that the soul wants.
Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!
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!
