At that time Jesus exclaimed:
"I give praise to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
for although you have hidden these things
from the wise and the learned
you have revealed them to little ones.
Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will.
All things have been handed over to me by my Father.
No one knows the Son except the Father,
and no one knows the Father except the Son
and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.

"Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am meek and humble of heart;
and you will find rest for yourselves.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden light."

Matthew 11:25-30

En aquel tiempo, Jesús exclamó: "¡Te doy gracias, Padre, Señor del cielo y de la tierra, porque has escondido estas cosas a los sabios y entendidos, y las has revelado a la gente sencilla! Gracias, Padre, porque así te ha parecido bien.

El Padre ha puesto todas las cosas en mis manos. Nadie conoce al Hijo sino el Padre, y nadie conoce al Padre sino el Hijo y aquel a quien el Hijo se lo quiera revelar.

Vengan a mí, todos los que están fatigados y agobiados por la carga, y yo les daré alivio. Tomen mi yugo sobre ustedes y aprendan de mí, que soy manso y humilde de corazón, y encontrarán descanso, porque mi yugo es suave y mi carga ligera".

Te invitamos a rezar a San Miguel Arcángel con nosotros,

San Miguel Arcángel,
defiéndenos en la lucha y Sé nuestro amparo
contra la perversidad y las asechanzas
del demonio.
Que Dios, manifieste sobre el su poder,
Es nuestra humilde suplica,
y tu príncipe de la milicia celestial con el poder
que Dios te ha concedido arroja al in****no
a Satanás y a los espíritus malignos
que andan dispersos por el mundo
para la perdición de las almas.
Amén.

We invite you to pray to Saint Michael the Archangel with us,

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness
and snares of the devil;
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan
and all evil spirits who wander
through the world for the ruin of souls.
Amen.
