July 24, 2025, Holy Rosary (Luminous Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,The saint that we are celebrating today, the nineteenth Lebanese saint, Sharbel Makhluf, who devoted himself to unreserved prayer in his last 23 years on earth, said:“In a world largely fascinated by wealth and comfort, the paramount value of poverty, penance, and asceticism, to liberate the soul in its ascent to God.”Meanwhile, in the main reading of today (Matt 13:10-17), Christ Jesus explains why He speaks to the crowd in parables: “They look but do not see and hear but do not listen or understand.”“Blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear. Amen, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”To the disciples, like to the faithful in union with Christ, “the knowledge of the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven has been granted.”Moreover, “To anyone who has, more will be given and he will grow rich; from anyone who has not, even what he has will be taken away.”Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!
