💞THE BLESSINGS OF GODLY SORROW💞

“There is your mother.” —John 19:27

Today we celebrate the memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. Mary, the Sorrowful Mother, endured many sorrows in the course of her earthly life (see Lk 2:48), often depicted in devotions such as the Seven Sorrows of Mary. In the present secular culture, there is a widespread lack of sorrow for sin. Instead, there is pride, arrogance, and contempt for the very concept of sin.

There is such a thing as godly sorrow, “a sorrow that came from God” (2 Cor 7:9). “Indeed, sorrow for God’s sake produces a repentance without regrets, leading to salvation, whereas worldly sorrow brings death” (2 Cor 7:10). “Just look at the fruit of this sorrow which stems from God” (2 Cor 7:11): a holy zeal rather than apathy, readiness to defend oneself from spiritual warfare rather than allowing the devil to run rampant in the world, an ardent desire to restore the balance of justice rather than an acceptance of injustice, and innocence in place of guilt (2 Cor 7:11).

A godly sorrow for sin leads to a reduction in sin, an increased love and worship of God, a corresponding desire to make reparation for sin, an increase of justice, peace, humility, holiness, and righteousness. Additionally, it leads to blessings for those who grieve sin. Those who mourned Israel’s sin and iniquities were spared from destruction (see Ez 9:4ff). Jesus Himself said: “Blessed too are the sorrowing, they shall be consoled” (Mt 5:4).

From the cross, Jesus commands us to receive Mary as our mother (Jn 19:27). Receive Mary into your home as your mother (Jn 19:27). Welcome godly sorrow and its blessings.

Prayer: “My Mother, share Thy grief with me, and let me bear Thee company to mourn Thy Jesus’ death with Thee.”

Promise: “This Child is destined to be the downfall and the rise of many in Israel, a sign that will be opposed.” —Lk 2:34

Praise: For years, Brenda has prayed the Servite Rosary daily, meditating on the Seven Sorrows of Mary.❤️🙏

💞“VIVA IL PAPA!”💞

“I for My part declare to you, you are ‘Rock,’ and on this rock I will build My Church.” —Matthew 16:18

Many Bible teachers have shown their ingenuity in obscuring the meaning of today’s Gospel reading. They try to show that Jesus did not really make Peter the “Rock” on which He built His Church. However, when we read this passage in the original Greek and are conscious that Jesus spoke these words in Aramaic, we have to admit that this passage means what it appears to mean. Jesus founded the Church on St. Peter.

Most people would not be too concerned about Peter leading the Church for a few years after Jesus ascended. However, they rightly realize that this Biblical passage implies Peter’s leadership of the Church throughout its history. Jesus set up a permanent structure where Peter and his successors lead the Church.

Peter’s continuing authority and leadership in the Church is not a problem, but a gift. It promotes unity and protects God’s people from being overwhelmed by confusion. Peter’s successors, the popes, are parts of Christ’s body on whom we can count to proclaim the truth, and to proclaim Who is the Truth (Jn 14:6), even amid deceptions, lies, and propaganda.

We need the pope and thank God for him. Pray for the pope. Listen to him. Find out what he teaches and apply his teachings to your life (see Heb 13:17).

Prayer: Father, I will look to the pope for direction and not do my own thing.

Promise: “Who has known the mind of the Lord?” —Rm 11:34

Praise: Praise the risen Jesus, Who holds “the keys of death and the nether world”! (Rv 1:18)❤️🙏
