S14E12:S. Maria Goretti and The Assumption
Manage episode 471469505 series 2838144
Today's Daily Decade, for the Feast of Pope S. Zachary, we beg the intercession of S. Anthony, whose vocal chords and tongue were incorrupt because of the edification of his sermons, on behalf of the fiance of Petite, longtime listener and frequent petitioner, for him to overcome health issues and for his faith to be strengthened.
Today's reflection is on the Assumption, what it is and what it means, why purity is the keystone to a Christian life that ends in a Christian death, and how S. Maria Goretti exemplifies this lesson, showing at a tender age the advanced wisdom that our virtues are not our own, but belong to God - and, if they are great enough, they will carry us to Him when He demands them of us.
