January 13 - Prayer to St. Hilary

O shepherd and doctor of God's holy Church, is this not what you would declare with all your breath to the ends of the earth: "Jesus is the Son of God and God Himself"? Would you not proclaim the true light of Scripture and the Word, the Light, become flesh in our midst? Know, O saint of the Lord, that your words reach our ears and our hearts even to this day, and this day we proclaim you holy and your words true – continue to speak to us; please intercede for us, that the Truth you declared so fearlessly will be taken up again by those in His stead today.
