What attachment to the things of the earth! Soon they will slip from your grasp, for the rich man cannot take his riches with him to the grave.

Let me stress this point:it is in the simplicity of your ordinary work,in the monotonous details of each day,that you have to find the secret,which is hidden from so many,of something great and new:Love.

In today’s Gospel, the first son represents the most heinous sinners of Jesus’ day—tax collectors and prostitutes—who by their sin at first refused to serve in the Lord’s vineyard, the kingdom.

Occasionally we may rebel, like the elder of the two sons, who replied to his father, 'I will not,' but we will learn how to turn back repentant and will redouble our efforts to do our duty.

The Blessed Virgin Mary, Teacher of unlimited self-giving. Do you remember? It was in praise of her that Jesus Christ said: "Whoever fulfils the Will of my Father, he — she — is my mother!..."

Do not become alarmed or discouraged to discover that you have failings...
Struggle to uproot them. And as you do so, be convinced that it is even a good thing to be aware of all those weaknesses, for otherwise you would be proud...

I copy. And I pray God that if some woman reads this, she may be filled with a holy and fruitful envy.

If the many sins of Mary Magdalen were forgiven because she loved greatly, many more have been forgiven me. What a great debt of love still remains for me to pay!

Our Lord Jesus by his deeds and by his teaching has bestowed praise on another human virtue which is particularly dear to me, the virtue of naturalness or simplicity.

Duc in altum. Put out into deep water!' Throw aside the pessimism that makes a coward of you. And pay out your nets for a catch!

Don't you see that you, like Peter, can say: Jesus, if you say so, I will search for souls?

If we want to help others, we must love them - I insist - with a love clothed in understanding, dedication, affection and voluntary humility.

Therefore, when you sense he's beckoning you, even if it is at the last hour, how can you think of lingering in the marketplace, basking in the sun as so many of those workers did, because they had time on their hands?

I ask the Mother of God to smile upon us if she wishes, if she can... She will indeed do so.

Moreover, she will reward our generosity a thousandfold here on earth. A thousandfold, that's what I am asking her for!

The young man refused to take the hint,and the Gospel goes on to say: abiit tristis,he went away forlorn. That is why I have sometimes called him the 'sad lad'. He lost his happiness because he refused to hand over his freedom to God.

Look: in the eyes of our Mother Mary we never cease to be little, because she opens to us the way to the Kingdom of Heaven, which will only be given to those who become little children.
#SaintJosemaría #FriendsOfGod #GospelOfTheDay #GospelOfToday

[eScrivaLite @eScrivaLite]

To be little, you have to abandon yourself as children do, believe as children believe, beg as children beg.

And we learn all this through contact with Mary.

If the grain of wheat does not die, it remains unfruitful. Don't you want to be a grain of wheat, to die through mortification, and to yield a rich harvest? May Jesus bless your wheat-field!

[eScrivaLite @eScrivaLite]

When you lose your peace and get nervous, it's like not listening to reason.

At such times, one hears again the Masterd's words to Peter as he sank among the waves of his own nerves and lack of peace: "Why did you doubt?"
