Evening Meditations for the Seventeenth Sunday After Pentecost~ St Alphonsus Liguori

Let us not lose courage but keep our eyes ever fixed on the Crucified One, because from Him we shall draw strength to endure the evils of this life not only with patience, but even with joy and gladness, as the Saints have done: Ye shall draw waters with joy out of the Saviour’s fountains (Is. xii. 3); that is, says St. Bonaventure, from the Wounds of Jesus Christ. Therefore the Saint exhorts us ever to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus dying upon the Cross, if we would live always united to God. “Devotion,” says St. Thomas, “consists in being ready to accomplish in ourselves whatever God demands of us.”

Spiritual Reading for Sunday – Seventeenth Week After Pentecost

Jesus Christ enlightens all men — the true light which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world (Jo. i. 9) — but there are some He cannot enlighten, because they voluntarily close their eyes to the light, and walk in darkness. They are those who lead tepid lives in the service of God.

Morning Meditation for Sunday – Seventeenth Week after Pentecost ~ St Alphonsus Liguori

The Blessed John of Avila would have wished to divide the world into two great prisons — one for those who do not believe and the other for those who do believe and yet live in sin! The prison for these last he would call the prison for fools.
