The way we live out our vocation is what evangelizes. Neither age nor physical limitations can extinguish our zeal. Our strength may run out, but Godโs power never will. #ApostolicJourney#Argentina https://t.co/Ev3sFVV3lW
Blessed Feast day of Saint Leo the Great!
A reflection on todayโs Gospel:
โWe are unprofitable servantsโ
Mindful of Godโs generosity, dearly beloved, we honor the day on which we assumed the priesthood. It is not presumptuous for us to keep this feast, so long as we devoutly and honestly confess that Christ performs the work of our ministry whenever we do anything right, so long as we do not boast in ourselves, who are able to do nothing without himโฆ.
Giving further reason to our solemnity is not merely the apostolic but also the episcopal dignity of most blessed Peter. He does not cease to preside over his see but unfailingly maintains that fellowship which he has with the eternal Priest.
That stability which he received from Christ the rock (by having himself been made rock) has poured over onto his heirs as wellโฆ.
Therefore, dearly beloved, whatever honor you have conferred upon us today, whether with the respect of brothers or the devotion of sons, know that youโas well as I myselfโhave in truth lavished it with more devotion upon Peter.
We are glad not so much to preside over his see as to serve it. We hope that through his prayers the God of mercies might look benignly upon the days of our ministry and might be always willing to guard and to feed the shepherd of his sheep.
-Saint Leo the Great, pray for us and the Church!
Our Lord promised special graces, above all purity of heart and innocence, to all who carried the Chaplet of the Infant Jesus and prayed it in honor of His holy infancy.
good morning catholic twt ๐ค
feeling very grateful for this view on the way to work this morning!
frosty fields, pink skies and a very sleepy teacher trying to remember that God is good even before 8am ๐น
@BringBackTradIG thank you for your concern! the Holy Officeโs 1959 prohibition was lifted in 1978. St. Faustina was canonised by Pope St John Paul II in 2000, and he established Divine Mercy Sunday. Iโm quite happy to follow the Churchโs guidance on this. God bless you though! ๐น
