November 19, 2024, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,Today, in the first reading of the Gospel (RV 3:1-6, 14-22), the Lord reproves lukewarmness. He told John: "I know your works;I know that you are neither cold nor hot.I wish you were either cold or hot.So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold,I will spit you out of my mouth.For you say, ‘I am rich and affluent and have no need of anything,’and yet do not realize that you are wretched,pitiable, poor, blind, and naked.I advise you to buy from me gold refined by fire so that you may be rich,and white garments to put onso that your shameful nakedness may not be exposed,and buy ointment to smear on your eyes so that you may see.Those whom I love, I reprove and chastise.Be earnest, therefore, and repent." These words seem to be written for today. Lukewarmness might be the most extended rejection of the Lord. We live like practical atheists, insulting the Divinity, following a God-like complex personality. It’s the disease of sin extended everywhere. "I will spit you out of my mouth." "Whoever has ears ought to hearwhat the Spirit says to the churches." Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York • ⁠November 19, 2024, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET
