Words written in red; Words of Jesus
When the days drew near for him to be received up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him; but the people would not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, "Lord, do you want us to bid fire come down from heaven and consume them?"
But he turned and rebuked them. And they went on to another village.
Luke 9: 51 – 56
Vigilance and prayer are the safeguards of chastity. You should pray often and fervently to be preserved from temptations against purity, and for the grace to overcome them.
— St. John Baptiste de la Salle
Abba, Father, Lord God, O if I good but have the faith and love for of Job. For all I know and all I feel, my walk burdens me and yet I have so much to be grateful for! Can it be that as Your seed is planted in my heart, so the seed of weakness is plant in me too? Move me out of this void that exists between the reality of where I have come from and the impatience for where I want to be with You in Jesus through the Spirit. Pull me up or push me down, but move me! In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
