May the faithful learn to adore our Lord Jesus Christ; they will find joy and peace.

• 08:15 – Meditation for today from St. Josemaria Escriva : “Our Lord knows our limitations, our individualism and our ambition. He knows it is difficult for us to forget ourselves and give ourselves to others. He knows very well what it feels like not to find love and to discover that those who say they follow him only do so in a half-hearted way. Just think of those striking scenes, described to us by the evangelists, in which we see the Apostles full of worldly ambitions and merely human plans. Yet Jesus has chosen them; he keeps them close to him and entrusts them with the mission he has received from his Father. He has called us too... ” from Christ is Passing By – no. 15

• 12:30 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: We have to make every effort in our prayer to try to see all things in Jesus Christ, to judge all things by our Lord Jesus Christ, who is God. That is one of the essential points of our spiritual life. There can be no profound, solid spiritual life without that minimal knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and without that love, that life with Him.

• 09:40 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: If contemplation is a gaze of love upon Jesus crucified and glorified, it is slipping the soul into the hands of God. “Into Thy hands I commend My spirit” (Lk. 23:46). And that can only happen by a complete surrender of our will into the hands of God, that is to say, a consummate obedience to His holy will; will signified by God and by those who participate legitimately in His authority and rightly use that participation; will of good pleasure signified by God Himself in the events that touch us over the course of our existence: illness, trials... Let us meditate on these great teachings of the Church and let us strive to put them into practice in the circumstances of our own life.

The cross of Jesus dominates the history of humanity, the history of the world. Stat Crux dum volvitur orbis. The cross remains, the cross is immovable before the vicissitudes of the world.
