Friends of the Rosary,
Today’s main reading in The New Testament (Lk 6:12-19) presents how Christ Jesus spent the night in prayer before choosing his Twelve apostles.
“Jesus departed to the mountain to pray,
and he spent the night in prayer to God.
When day came, he called his disciples to himself,
and from them he chose Twelve, whom he also named Apostles:
Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew,
James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,
Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus,
Simon who was called a Zealot,
and Judas the son of James,
and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.”
That’s God’s approach before taking a huge decision. The first Sorrowful Mystery is the mystery of prayer. We raise our minds and hearts to the Father, adoring Him, giving thanks, confessing our sins, and, yes, petitioning.
The Almighty is delighted with our petitions. “The Lord takes delight in his people,” states the Palm today.
He calls us by our names and certainly knows about our needs. But we have to ask. Because what we ask, and it’s good for our soul, will be granted… at the right time.
He is the King of Kings and the One who powers our life. As we read today,
“Everyone in the crowd sought to touch him
because power came forth from him and healed them all.”
Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
