15th Sunday of the year: God has chosen us to be his messengers; I call you friends, says the Lord, because I have told you everything I have heard from my Father. There are two objectives in God's call, which cannot be separated: to stay with him, to preach and to cast out demons. If you do not love Jesus and are not in communion with him, you cannot make him known and become a messenger; the call and the mission are linked together and you cannot be a messenger if you are not captivated by the love of Jesus...

Even if we are weak, Christ is there to be our strength. May God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, open the eyes of our souls, so that we may know the hope to which we have been called. Many people do not receive Jesus through the gospel statements. According to Saint Paul, prophets also have their faults and suffer in many ways.

13th Sunday of the Year - B: God wants us to live; Alleluia, Alleluia, Spirit and life, Lord, the words you have spoken; You have the words of eternal life. Alleluia. Death entered the world because of the jealousy of demons. God did not create death and he does not want the loss of the living. Your surplus will compensate for the lack of your poor relatives. According to your superiority in all things, may you also be superior in charity. Jesus Christ is the Lord of life, both physically and spiritually, so ask him to keep us alive through his life...

God is our salvation and our protection; Praise be to the King, in the name of the Lord! Peace be to heaven and glory to him in the highest! For the righteous, death shall not touch them; for the good, evil shall not touch them. Being open to God's will and grace is what makes us gain and have peace. Our life can be compared to a small boat, and the storm is the image of many different problems, so only God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit can calm it... We must trust God and have faith...
