St. Lawrence of Brindisi (1559-1619) was one of the early Capuchins, the first Capuchin to be named a Doctor of the Church, and the third Franciscan so named, after St. Anthony of Padua, and St. Bonaventure. Just as the Discalced Carmelites were reformers within the Carmelite order, the Capuchins were reformers within the Franciscan order. St. Lawrence was also a popular preacher, a genius scholar, with a command of at least 10 languages, and the leading Catholic apologist of his day.

We visit Brindisi, one of Puglia's most underrated cities. Brindisi was once one of the great crossroads of the entire Mediterranean world. Julius Caesar blockaded its harbour. The Roman Empire's legions marched east from here. Crusader armies set sail from these waters for the Holy Land. Virgil, the greatest poet of the ancient world, died here. Shakespeare wrote about it. And in 1943, when Rome fell to German occupation, Brindisi became the capital city of Italy. Our Brindisi guide has details of all locations and restaurants recommended.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8506SAN LORENZO DA BRINDISI, MISSIONARIO FRA GLI ERETICIdi Suor M. Simona Pia Müller Una splendida figura dell'Ordine dei Cappuccini è San Lorenzo da Brindisi, missionario fra gli eretici. La Chiesa universale celebra la sua festa il 23 luglio. Più conosciuto nell'Ordine come Vicario generale, apostolo in Europa e Dottore della Chiesa, l'aspetto missionario di questo grande Santo è poco conosciuto dalla maggioranza delle persone. Esaminiamo più attentamente quest'aspetto nella speranza di essere contagiati anche noi dal suo zelo per la salvezza delle anime.Il Santo nacque a Brindisi il 22 luglio 1559 da genitori di alta cultura: Guglielmo Rossi ed Elisabetta Masella. Prima della nascita del futuro missionario, i genitori si erano trasferiti da Venezia a Brindisi per motivi politici.Iddio aveva benedetto Giulio Cesare (nome di Battesimo del Santo) con tante doti naturali che sotto la guida della pia mamma furono indirizzate verso il Signore. La sua capacità di parlare in pubblico e di entusiasmare le folle fu scoperta quando il bambino aveva solo 6 anni, quando ebbe l'occasione di fare in pubblico un discorso religioso che accattivò l'attenzione di tutti, facendo intravedere in lui un futuro grande predicatore.Il papà di Giulio Cesare morì quando il figlio era ancora giovane. All'età di 12 anni il pio fanciullo avvertì la chiamata di consacrarsi a Dio nella vita religiosa e in modo particolare nell'Ordine francescano. Troppo giovane ancora per essere accettato come novizio tra i Frati Minori Conventuali presenti a Brindisi, venne accolto da loro solo come aspirante, dandogli così la possibilità di indossare l'abitino francescano. Contento e sereno fra le mura del convento, il fratino si dedicò allo studio, alla preghiera e alla penitenza. La pace goduta a Brindisi però era destinata a durare poco. I turchi minacciavano d'invadere le coste dell'Italia e la famiglia Rossi si trasferì di nuovo a Venezia, dove il giovane Giulio Cesare fu affidato alla cura di uno zio Sacerdote diocesano. Dovette quindi spogliarsi dell'abitino francescano per indossare la talare secolare, ma nell'anima del giovane il desiderio di appartenere all'Ordine francescano e di indossare di nuovo l'abito serafico non si spense mai. Giulio Cesare ebbe in seguito la possibilità di visitare spesso il convento de Cappuccini di Giudecca, sull'isola della laguna di Venezia. Innamoratosi sempre più della povertà estrema dei figli di San Francesco, chiese di potersi aggregare alla loro famiglia religiosa. Il 17 febbraio del 1575 entro nell'Ordine dei Frati Minori Cappuccini assumendo il nome di fra Lorenzo da Brindisi.PURIFICARE DAGLI ERETICIFin dall'inizio, fra Lorenzo si dedicò all'osservanza perfetta delle più piccole prescrizioni della vita conventuale, rispettoso e sottomesso ai Superiori e caritatevole verso i confratelli, diventando un modello di perfezione religiosa. Il 24 marzo 1576 si consacrò solennemente a Dio. Dopo l'emissione dei voti, fra Lorenzo andò a Padova dove studiò Filosofia, Teologia e varie lingue, fra le quali il greco, l'ebraico, il caldeo, il siriaco, il tedesco, il francese e lo spagnolo. Sembrava che il futuro apostolo e missionario avesse un dono particolare per l'apprendimento delle lingue straniere; arrivò, infatti, a una conoscenza cosi profonda delle suddette lingue che era capace di predicare in ognuna di esse. Possedeva inoltre una memoria formidabile.Fra Lorenzo fu ordinato Sacerdote a Venezia il 18 dicembre 1582. Iniziò cosi l'apostolato della predicazione in varie città d'Italia, quali Padova, Vicenza, Verona, Pavia, Genova e Napoli. Già durante questo periodo, padre Lorenzo fece vari miracoli di guarigione. I Papa Clemente VIII, avendo sentito le meraviglie operate per mezzo del Santo, lo chiamò a Roma e gli affido l'incarico di predicare e di confutare gli ebrei. Con una bibbia ebraica in mano, padre Lorenzo fece a loro un corso di conferenze che convertirono varie persone alla fede cattolica. Fra il 1587 e il 1598, fu spostato in vari conventi dell'Ordine, coprendo diversi incarichi importanti.Nel frattempo l'imperatore di Germania, Rodolfo II, chiese al Pontefice un gruppo di Cappuccini per purificare la terra tedesca da vari gruppi di eretici, ossia gli ussiti, i picardi, i luterani, i calvinisti, i giudei. In più, la Germania era minacciata dall'invasione dei turchi. Padre Lorenzo partì a capo di un gruppo di undici confratelli Sacerdoti e due confratelli conversi. Innumerevoli furono le fatiche e gli stenti, i pericoli e le persecuzioni sostenuti dagli intrepidi missionari. I nemici della Chiesa Cattolica, allarmati per la loro comparsa in quelle regioni, tentarono in mille modi di frustrare la loro opera. Con il sostegno dell'Imperatore, però, San Lorenzo fondò tre conventi per i suoi religiosi, uno a Praga, uno a Vienna e il terzo a Gratz. Con la loro permanenza in quelle regioni, i santi missionari continuarono a purificare la zona dagli eretici e il bene che facevano era sempre più ostacolato dai nemici del Cattolicesimo.MAMMA, LI TURCHIContemporaneamente Maometto III, figlio di Amurat, invase l'Ungheria, insieme alla sua armata formidabile. L'Imperatore chiese aiuto al Papa che inviò 10.000 uomini. Le truppe Alemanne si unirono a questi uomini, con il Duca di Mercoeur al capo. Al fianco del Duca ci fu padre Lorenzo da Brindisi, che incoraggiò i soldati, tramutandoli in altrettanti eroi. Il Santo precedeva il gruppo con il crocifisso in mano ed eccitava i soldati a non avere paura, a combattere da forti, sicuri della vittoria. La battaglia contro i turchi si svolse ad Alba Reale; il combattimento durò otto giorni durante i quali i turchi perdettero 30.000 soldati, ritirandosi umiliati e vinti. Il santo Cappuccino fu valoroso in questa battaglia: sul dorso di un cavallo, sempre con il crocifisso in mano, fu visto correre da un capo all'altro del campo per incoraggiare i soldati. Dopo la battaglia, il Santo partì per la Germania, e volle portare con sé un'immagine della Madonna, rinchiusa in una cassetta insieme a fiorellini freschi e odorosi. Grazie alla presenza dell'immagine, i fiori, seppure privi di acqua e di luce, miracolosamente rimasero tali quali per vari mesi, segno dell'amore filiale e ardente verso la Mamma celeste e segreto del successo che il Santo aveva nella vita apostolica. La sua devozione alla Madonna cresceva ogni giorno di più e, grazie a uno speciale indulto, poteva celebrare la Santa Messa in suo onore quasi tutti i giorni.All'età di 43 anni padre Lorenzo venne eletto Vicario generale dell'Ordine, per cui si mise a visitare a piedi le province di Milano, la Svizzera, la Germania, la Fiandra e pure la Spagna. Con la sua assenza dalla Germania i turchi molestarono di nuovo quelle regioni, compresa l'Ungheria. L'imperatore Rodolfo chiese di nuovo aiuto a padre Lorenzo per combatterli. L'uomo di Dio fece ritorno in Italia, si presentò al Pontefice Paolo V e gli propose la formazione di una Santa Lega tra il Pontefice, l'imperatore di Germania e il re di Spagna.Sempre più intensa era la sua devozione alla Madonna. Un giorno, il Santo, assorto in preghiera, ebbe l'apparizione della Santa Vergine; egli allora non poté contenere la sua gioia ed esclamò: «O madre mia, o mia santa Madre, beato chi vi loda, beato chi vi porta nel proprio cuore». E il Santo cappuccino, portando la Madonna nel cuore, portò la salvezza a tante anime smarrite. Veramente era "beato" San Lorenzo da Brindisi.

Andrea Martina"Questo posto mi sta respingendo"66thand2ndwww.66thand2nd.comLucio parte da Crianza, un paese tra Brindisi e Lecce, col treno notturno per Torino e un pensiero fisso che lo soffoca: non passa più un esame a Ingegneria da molto tempo. Ai suoi genitori non ha ancora avuto il coraggio di dire nulla. Prova a convincersi che saprà rimettere insieme i pezzi, ma non ci riesce e ogni telefonata, ogni ritorno a casa, ogni domanda innocente rischia di smascherare la recita quotidiana che porta avanti con angoscia e ostinazione.Anche Atena torna a Torino per il suo ultimo anno di Architettura, è amica e coinquilina di Lucio ma a differenza di lui è in pari con gli esami, e i suoi voti sono sempre stati altissimi. Figlia del sindaco di Crianza, il suo futuro sembra già scritto: lavorerà nello studio del padre. Eppure, sotto la superficie di una vita che conferma le aspettative degli altri, trema un'inquietudine silenziosa. Quando i genitori subiscono un'intimidazione, ciò che sembrava lontano – la violenza, il potere, il peso delle scelte – diventa impossibile da ignorare.Le vite di Lucio e Atena scorrono parallele, incerte e fragili. Insieme scoprono che la rabbia può assumere forme impreviste, come un gesto notturno, una vendetta silenziosa. E scoprono anche che «realizzarsi» può significare molte cose diverse.Andrea Martina scrive un romanzo di formazione delicato e inquieto, che racconta lo smarrimento e il desiderio di trovare da soli il proprio posto nel mondo.Andrea Martina è nato in provincia di Brindisi, vive e insegna a Modena.

Lo scalo di Brindisi era senza jet fuel. A Reggio Calabria sono state introdotte limitazioni per la carenza di cherosene e Pescara per un guasto si trova con una sola cisterna. Lo si legge nei bollettini pubblicati nel lunedì di Pasquetta e che fanno seguito ai quattro arrivati 48 ore fa. In quel caso si trattava degli aeroporti di Milano Linate, Bologna, Treviso e Venezia, per le difficoltà del fornitore Air Bp Italia.Intanto oggi la situazione sembra rientrata: procede regolarmente questa mattina la fornitura di carburante per gli aerei in partenza nell'aeroporto del Salento di Brindisi, gestito da Aeroporti di Puglia. Alcune autobotti sono già giunte nello scalo e altre ne arriveranno nel corso della giornata. La fornitura, peraltro, non è stata mai sospesa. Ieri sera, di fronte alla eventualità che lo scalo rimanesse nella giornata di oggi senza carburante, dopo la diffusione di alcuni bolllettini aeronautici, il presidente di Aeroporti di Puglia Antonio Maria Vasile aveva precisato che non c'era "alcuna emergenza" e che la situazione era "sotto controllo, anche e soprattutto a Brindisi", invitando a evitare "preoccupazioni o allarmismi. Le forniture di carburante continuano regolarmente e non c'è alcun rischio di carenza imminente", aveva aggiunto. Facciamo il punto con Ugo Arrigo professore associato presso l'Università Bicocca di Milano.L'allarme di DimonWall Street oggi ha aperto negativa con l'avvicinarsi della scadenza dell'ultimatum di Donald Trump all'Iran. Ieri, sul piano delle esternazioni pubbliche, a prendere la parola è stato Jamie Dimon. Nella consueta lettera agli azionisti, l amministratore delegato di JP Morgan ha sottolineato senza giri di parole come la guerra in Iran metta l intero mondo finanziario «di fronte all insorgenza di shock significativi per i prezzi del petrolio e delle materie prime, che potrebbero comportare un livello di inflazione più persistente e tassi di interesse più elevati rispetto alle attese dei mercati».«Non abbiamo avuto una recessione creditizia da molto tempo, e sembra che alcune persone diano per scontato che non accadrà mai», ha detto. Un monito netto, che squarcia il velo di compiacenza di Wall Street con una previsione inequivocabile: «Non appena il ciclo del credito si invertirà, cosa che accadrà un giorno, le perdite su tutti i prestiti a leva in generale saranno superiori al previsto». In ogni caso - ha aggiunto - non è "probabilmente" un problema sistemico. Il commento è di Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore editoriale UCapital.comAgenzia Internazionale dell'Energia, 'crisi per Hormuz la peggiore di quelle del '73, '79 e 2002 messe insieme'Il conto alla rovescia verso le 20 americane (le 2 di notte in Italia) è iniziato: nel giro di poche ore si capirà se il presidente americano Donald Trump darà seguito alla minaccia di "cancellare in una notte un intero Paese" o se concederà ancora tempo ai negoziati in corso attraverso i mediatori internazionali. Poche ore fa l'Iran ha chiuso tutti i canali di comunicazione diplomatici e indiretti con gli Stati Uniti, secondo quanto riportato dal quotidiano controllato dallo Stato Tehran Times su X. "Sono stati sospesi anche tutti gli scambi di messaggi". Il Teheran Times è considerato come strettamente legato alle fazioni più intransigenti all'interno del governo iraniano.Intanto per il direttore dell'Agenzia Internazionale dell'Energia (Aie), Fatih Birol, l'attuale crisi di petrolio e gas, innescata dal blocco dello stretto di Hormuz da parte dell'Iran, è "più grave di quelle del 1973, 1979 e 2002 messe insieme". Il mondo, ha affermato Birol, "non ha mai sperimentato un'interruzione dell'approvvigionamento energetico di tale portata". Il direttore dell'Aie ha aggiunto che i Paesi più a rischio sono quelli in via di sviluppo, le cui popolazioni saranno prevedibilmente colpite in modo duro dall'aumento dei prezzi dei combustibili. Il mese scorso, i Paesi membri dell'Aie hanno concordato di rilasciare parte delle riserve strategiche: Birol ha spiegato che tale processo è già stato avviato, ma attualmente resta ancora in corso. Ne parliamo con Davide Tabarelli, presidente Nomisma Energia.

In Italia, il prezzo del gasolio è salito a 2,140 €/litro, mentre la benzina self-service ha raggiunto 1,781 €/litro. Le scorte nazionali di energia sono attualmente al 44% della capacità, superando la media europea del 20%. * Crisi del Trasporto Aereo: Sette scali italiani, tra cui Brindisi (a secco fino alle ore 12:00 del 07/04), Reggio Calabria (limite di 3.000 litri per aereo) e Pescara, segnalano criticità nei rifornimenti di jet fuel. Il prezzo del cherosene ha superato i 1.900 $/tonnellata, più del doppio rispetto a fine febbraio. * Impatto Geopolitico e Mercati: Le quotazioni del greggio WTI hanno superato i 114 $/barile (+2,4%) e il Brent i 111 $/barile (+1,8%). Aramco ha alzato i prezzi per l'Europa di 24-30 $ sopra il Brent, portando il costo effettivo a 130-140 $/barile. Dall'inizio del conflitto, le borse europee hanno bruciato oltre 1.100 miliardi € di capitalizzazione.Investimenti e MercatiTestate coinvolte: L'Economia del Corriere della Sera / La Repubblica Affari & Finanza / Il Sole 24 Ore * Venture Capital e Startup: Il mercato italiano del venture capital vale tra 1,2 e 1,8 miliardi € annui, con ticket medi di 1,1 milioni €. Negli ultimi 10 anni, le startup italiane hanno generato 80 miliardi € di liquid value, contro i 430 miliardi della Francia. Si stima che aziende tecnologiche europee per 700 miliardi € abbiano lasciato il continente tra il 2014 e il 2025. * Ricchezza delle Famiglie: Il reddito medio delle famiglie residenti in Italia nel 2024 è stato di 39.501 € (3.290 €/mese), con una crescita del 5,3% che ha superato l'inflazione (1,1%). Tuttavia, la propensione al risparmio è scesa all'8,2%. Le attività finanziarie totali delle famiglie superano i 6.000 miliardi €. * Asset Digitali: Il Bitcoin ha mostrato un recupero tornando sopra i 70.000 $, segnando un rialzo dell'1,5% dopo una perdita del 23% nel primo trimestre dell'anno.Industria e Nomine PartecipateTestate coinvolte: Corriere della Sera / La Repubblica / La Stampa * Governance di Stato: Il governo è impegnato nel rinnovo dei vertici di oltre 20 partecipate statali, coinvolgendo circa 100 posizioni strategiche. * Focus Leonardo: Avanza il nome di Lorenzo Mariani per sostituire Roberto Cingolani come AD di Leonardo. Nel 2025, il gruppo ha registrato ricavi vicini ai 20 miliardi €, un portafoglio ordini di 47,3 miliardi € e ha distribuito dividendi per 0,63 € per azione. Si stimano dividendi per 1,3 miliardi € nel triennio 2026-2028. * Altre Conferme: Claudio Descalzi si avvia verso il quinto mandato come AD di Eni, mentre per Enel si profila la conferma di Flavio Cattaneo (AD) e Paolo Scaroni (Presidente).Fisco e NormativaTestate coinvolte: L'Economia del Corriere della Sera / Il Sole 24 Ore * Evasione e Recupero: L'Agenzia delle Entrate ha recuperato circa 36,2 miliardi € dall'evasione fiscale nell'ultimo anno. L'evasione fiscale e contributiva complessiva è stimata oltre i 100 miliardi €/anno, con il sommerso che pesa per il 10% del PIL. * Adempimento Collaborativo: Il numero di società che hanno aderito a questo schema è salito a 221 (78 nuove adesioni nel 2025). La normativa riguarda attualmente società con fatturato sopra i 500 milioni €, soglia che scenderà a 100 milioni € dal 2028.Lavoro e FormazioneTestate coinvolte: L'Economia del Corriere della Sera / La Repubblica / Il Messaggero * Mercato del Lavoro: I dati Istat di febbraio mostrano un calo di 29.000 occupati su base mensile, con un incremento tendenziale annuo di sole 13.000 unità (molto inferiore alle 354.000 del 2025). * Salari e Contrattazione: Il potere d'acquisto in Italia ha perso l'8% dallo shock inflattivo dell'invasione russa, recuperando finora solo l'1%. Circa il 60% dei contratti collettivi nazionali (CCNL) risulta scaduto. * Nuove Regole: Da oggi entrano in vigore nuove regole per lo smart working, con obblighi informativi sulla prevenzione e sicurezza per i dipendenti.Executive Takeaway (Insight per la C-Suite) * Resilienza Operativa e Energy Sourcing: La crisi nello Stretto di Hormuz impone una revisione immediata delle supply chain energetiche. Nonostante le scorte nazionali (44%) offrano un cuscinetto temporaneo, il raddoppio dei costi del jet fuel e i picchi del gasolio richiedono strategie di hedging più aggressive e diversificazione dei vettori logistici. * Capitalizzazione dell'Innovazione: L'Europa continua a "esportare crescita" (700 miliardi di capitalizzazione persi verso l'estero). Per le aziende italiane late-stage, è fondamentale sfruttare i nuovi strumenti di Private Debt e i mega-fondi UE da 5 miliardi per evitare la migrazione di capitali e competenze verso i mercati USA. * Evoluzione del Rapporto Fisco-Impresa: La transizione verso l'adempimento collaborativo (esteso alle imprese da 100M€ dal 2028) trasforma il fisco da avversario a partner negoziale. Implementare un Tax Control Framework solido è oggi un vantaggio competitivo per ridurre sanzioni e incertezza di bilancio. * Gestione del Capitale Umano e Salari: Con il 60% dei contratti scaduti e un'occupazione in rallentamento, le aziende devono prepararsi a una revisione dei parametri salariali. Indicazioni positive arrivano dalla detassazione al 5% sui rinnovi contrattuali proposta dal governo per incentivare il potere d'acquisto. * Governance e Continuità: Il massiccio rinnovo delle cariche nelle partecipate (100 posizioni) influenzerà i settori Difesa, Energia e Infrastrutture. La continuità operativa in giganti come Eni ed Enel garantisce stabilità, mentre il nuovo corso in Leonardo segnerà una forte spinta sui sistemi missilistici e spaziali.

Gianluigi Cosi"45 giri di poesia"Canzone che viene, canzone che vaEdizioni il raggio verdewww.ilraggioverdesrl.it“45 giri di poesia – canzone che viene canzone che va” è la nuova raccolta di poesie di Gianlugi Cosi edito da Il Raggio Verde edizioni. Un libro che nelle intenzioni dell'autore, fotografato in copertina da Mimmo Summa,  vuole essere un omaggio alla musica d'autore italiana da riscoprire attraverso il filtro della poesia che le canzoni hanno ispirato. Si tratta di un vero e proprio viaggio musicale  – spiega lo stesso Cosi  – «attraverso le poesie e le canzoni, attraverso una chitarra o un piano, attraverso le parole e le emozioni. La canzone scappa via la poesia si aggrappa al cuore e rimane lì sospesa.Bisognerebbe educarsi alla canzone con la poesia, ascoltare il più possibile i vecchi e nuovi cantautori, leggere la storia. Fu Vincenzo Micocci che “inventò” il termine “Cantautori” negli anni Settanta con la scuola romana nel famoso Folkstudio fucina di grandi artisti.»Impreziosisce la raccolta l'inserimento ad ogni poesia del qrcode del brano che ha ispirato il componimento.   Scrive in prefazione Carmelo Grassi  direttore artistico Nuovo Teatro Verdi di Brindisi: «I “45 giri” del titolo sono rotazioni dell'anima. Sono istantanee di un'epoca che, lungi dall'essere nostalgica, diventa un laboratorio emotivo per il presente. Questo libro è più che un'operazione retrospettiva, è un vero atto di riappropriazione: ci restituisce le canzoni come spazi aperti, come paesaggi in cui tornare a camminare. E lo fa con uno stile sobrio, calibrato, mai ridondante. Una poesia che non alza la voce ma che resta impressa. “45 giri di poesia” è anche, infine, un invito. A riascoltare con attenzione.

Could You Perform Miracles?John 14:12-13 “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”This is one of my favorite verses in the Bible.  It is one that I read, and when I heard it, I believed it right away.  Some verses are like this in the Bible.  When you read the Bible, some things are easy to take in and others are difficult.  These easy and difficult things are different for everyone.  We all have different experiences when we read the Bible because we have all had different experiences throughout our lives.  There is a quote by Steven R. Covey that I really like.  Steven R. Covey said, “We see the world, not as it is, but as we are.”  This is true for the Bible as well.  We look at and interpret the things we read in the Bible through our own unique lens.  For instance, if we had people letting us down our whole lives, we may read the parts of the Bible that talk about trust and struggle to believe we can trust God because we haven't been able to trust anyone on earth.  If we have grown up in a very unloving environment, we may struggle with the parts of the Bible that talk about unconditional love. Other things may come easier to us.  I instantly loved this verse.  I know the Bible is God's Word and that God chose His words very carefully.  Sometimes, when we are reading the Bible, there may be a question in our minds about why they used this word vs. that word.  One thing I have learned from doing Bible studies is that there is always a reason why certain words were chosen.  Also, if you have done Bible studies, you have had the benefit of hearing all about the original Greek or Hebrew words that were used in the original translation and what those words meant.  Sometimes, when translated, we don't have an exact word to mean what they were saying. I find Bible studies fascinating because you gain so much more insight into what the verses are really saying.  Anyway, back to the verse.  I heard this verse, or read this verse, and I believed Jesus' word to us.  I have never really been one to struggle with trust.  I grew up in a loving family, I had great friends growing up, and I am blessed to be able to say I was not let down by those I know and care about, often growing up.  Therefore, I trust pretty easily.  But what if you don't trust easily?  What if you look at that verse and say there is no way we could perform the works Jesus did, Jesus was God, of course, He performed miracles.  Also, the apostles were right there with Him for 3 years during His ministry; of course, they could do miracles too.  We can all usually agree that Jesus did miracles when He walked the earth, and we can also usually agree that the apostles were sent out and they performed miracles, too.  Where we run into trouble is trying to believe we could do signs and wonders in the world today.  Who are we?  We are not holy enough, we are not worthy of that power and authority.  I agree with both of those statements, and yet Jesus still says we will do the works that He did and even greater works than He did. How is this possible?It is possible through the Holy Spirit.  Did you ever realize or notice that there is not a single miracle recorded in the Gospels before Jesus was baptized?  Jesus was fully human and fully God the entire time He walked the earth.  There was nothing stopping Jesus from performing miracles during the first 30 years of His life.  However, He chose to wait until after He was baptized and received the Holy Spirit to start performing miracles.  This is something I recently found out and found fascinating.  It was not a surprise to me that Jesus did miracles in the Bible; He is God after all.  What I didn't know is that Jesus didn't use his divinity to perform miracles.  He used the Holy Spirit, working through Him, to perform the miracles.  He chose to put his divinity aside and act from his human nature, with the help of the Holy Spirit, because it would be greater glory for God.  St. Lawrence of Brindisi explains it like this:"Christ came into the world to do battle against Satan, to do away with idolatry, and to turn the world to faith and piety and the worship of the true God.  He could have accomplished this by using the weapons of his might and coming as he will come to judge, in glory and majesty… But in order that his victory might be the more glorious, he willed to fight Satan in our weak flesh. It is as if an unarmed man, right hand bound, were to fight with his left hand alone against a powerful enemy; if he emerged victorious, his victory would be regarded as all the more glorious. So Christ conquered Satan with the right hand of his divinity bound, and using against him only the left hand of his weak humanity.”Is this new to you, too?  Did you know that God performed these miracles and defeated satan without using his divinity?  He relied on the power of the Holy Spirit working through Him.  Do you know why this changes everything?  It changes everything because Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit to dwell within us as well.  If you are baptized, then you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you.  If you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you, then you have the power to defeat Satan and to perform works like Jesus did.  Another one of my favorite verses is Romans 8:11: “ The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you…” I wish we all knew how much power we actually have inside our frail human bodies.This verse can be scary to many people.  Wait, if I can perform works like Jesus did, does that mean I have to travel all over the world and be a missionary like the disciples were?  No, you don't have to travel anywhere if you don't feel called to do that.  What they talked about in my class is ministering to your sphere of influence.  You can start small.  Be an example to your family, your friends, and your coworkers.  Let's read the verse again, “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”If you were able to believe and adopt this verse as your own personal truth, how much greater would your life be?  How great would it be to do works like Jesus did?  How great would it be to be able to heal a loved one?  Did you know there are people doing this every day?  Did you know there are lots of people who have read this verse, decided to believe it, and are now living out a supernatural lifestyle with the power of the Holy Spirit?  The last line of the verse says, “If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”  How awesome a promise is that?  God has so much more for us, and we aren't asking for it.  We aren't going to God to ask Him what He has for us.  Why are we choosing to live a normal life when God is offering us a supernatural one of signs and wonders?  You might be thinking, That is great for you, Catherine.  I am glad you believe this verse and you want that life, but I am happy with mine as is.  If this is what you are thinking I challenge you over this next week or so to bring this to prayer.  I challenge you to be brave enough to just talk to God about it.  Tell Him how you are feeling about this verse and ask Him if He has anything to say to you about it.  When we do signs and wonders, we build up people's faith.  Don't you think this world needs some faith-building right now?  Look at the day of Pentecost, 3,000 were baptized on that day.  I know this verse can be scary.  I know the thought of us healing or performing miracles is strange to most of us.  I know it is way outside of our comfort zone.  I also know God is calling us all to it.  I also know that this world really needs people who are willing to step outside their comfort zone.  God needs people who will step out in faith, knowing they have the Holy Spirit living inside of them and that He will guide them.  If this verse is something that you struggle with, write it down and look at it often over the next month.  Bring it to God and ask Him to show you how this applies to your life.  Ask God what He wants you to do with this verse?  Be brave, be bold. If you ask the Holy Spirit for help, He will help you.  Just start small.  Step out in faith and ask a loved one if they want you to pray for them.  If you spend time with God, He will guide this journey for you.  He will lead you to where you need to go.  We just have to be brave enough to say three small words, “Use me, Lord.”  Can you be brave enough to say those words?  Can we be Christ's hands and feet here on earth?  Remember, we have a good good Father.  He is going to ease you into this lifestyle.  He is going to meet you where you are at and build your faith along the way.  Trust Him and give Him permission to work in your life, give Him permission to use you, and He will.  Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today.  Lord, we ask you to send your angels to prepare the way for everyone listening to hear this message today.  We pray you give us the courage to believe this verse and to step out in faith, knowing you have given us the power of the Holy Spirit to help us do your work here on earth.  Lord, the world needs you more than ever, and if we can bring you to others, please show us how.  Show us what you want each of us to do.  Reveal to us what this verse means for each one of us in our individual lives.  We love you, Lord. You are incredible.  We are so grateful you gave us the Holy Spirit.  Lord, you are the almighty one, you are the king of kings and the Lord of Lords.  You are the light of the world.  We ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.  I look forward to spending time with you again tomorrow.  Remember Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I.  Have a blessed weekend!Today's Word from the Lord was received in May 2025 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group.

Des missionnaires catholiques numériques ont vécu, les 28 et 29 juillet, le premier jubilé dans l'histoire de l'Église leur étant consacré. Parmi le millier de participants, venus des quatre coins du monde, à l'invitation du pape Léon XIV, des prêtres italiens cartonnent sur les réseaux sociaux. Au point de rassembler plus d'un million de followers, comme don Cosimo Schena. Rencontre avec certaines de ces stars de l'évangélisation en ligne, à l'ombre de la coupole de Saint-Pierre. De notre correspondante à Rome, Revitaliser l'Église et la rendre plus inclusive, cela peut passer par la musique électro, comme celle du curé DJ portugais, Guilherme Peixoto. Lors de la dernière soirée du jubilé des missionnaires digitaux, le célèbre influenceur quinquagénaire, en col romain, a enflammé la foule sur la piazza del Risorgimento, avec un concert dont vous écoutez un extrait. L'évangélisation sur la toile passe aussi par le corps, utilisé comme le temple du Saint-Esprit. Don Giuseppe Fusari, 60 ans, originaire de Brescia, expert en histoire de l'art, est surnommé « le prêtre culturiste ». Et c'est peu dire. Il suffit de voir une photo de lui torse nu, avec ses muscles ultra-bombés. « Je me considère comme un missionnaire digital qui applique la méthode des influenceurs. Aujourd'hui, nous vivons dans une société où la manière dont une personne se montre compte beaucoup pour les plus jeunes qui vivent dans un monde d'images ». « Ho fatto un podcast,  "Don cast", il podcast il più santo di tutti ! ». (« J'ai réalisé un podcast Don Cast. Le podcast le plus sacré de tous ! ») Là, vous entendez un autre prêtre, Alberto Ravagnani, 31 ans, du diocèse de Milan, qui présente un de ses podcasts sur un ton illustrant toute sa fougue sur Instagram, YouTube et TikTok. « J'ai toujours été attiré par la scène. Pour moi, la mimique faciale et gestuelle sont essentielles pour communiquer sur les médias sociaux. Je pense que l'Église doit briser les clichés. Sinon, elle risque de sombrer dans ses propres clichés stéréotypes ». Et voici Don Cosimo Schena, 46 ans portés avec l'élégance d'un top-model. En Italie, ce prête de Brindisi est une véritable star sur les réseaux sociaux. « Je réalise des vidéos sur la psychologie spirituelle, car je suis aussi psychothérapeute. Mon élégance m'aide. Je reçois jusqu'à mille messages par jour. La maladie de notre siècle est vraiment la solitude. Si nous étions plus enclins à nous écouter les uns les autres, le monde serait différent. » À l'instar d'autres étudiants catholiques, Anna et Guy voient d'un bon œil cette petite révolution : « C'est un moyen super ! Il y a plein de jeunes qui découvrent la foi grâce aux plateformes comme Instagram ou TikTok. Ça peut toucher tout le monde, tout âge. » « Moi, je trouve que c'est très beau d'évangéliser sur les réseaux sociaux parce que c'est aller chercher les personnes là où elles sont ». Quant au pape Léon XIV qui définit les prêtres influenceurs comme « des agents de communion, capables de rompre la logique de l'individualisme », ils les invitent à « se centrer sur le Christ ».

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the Sixteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 395The Saint of the day is Saint Lawrence of BrindisiSaint Lawrence of Brindisi’s Story At first glance, perhaps the most remarkable quality of Lawrence of Brindisi is his outstanding gift of languages. In addition to a thorough knowledge of his native Italian, he had complete reading and speaking ability in Latin, Hebrew, Greek, German, Bohemian, Spanish, and French. Lawrence was born on July 22, 1559, and died exactly 60 years later on his birthday in 1619. His parents William and Elizabeth Russo gave him the name of Julius Caesar, Caesare in Italian. After the early death of his parents, he was educated by his uncle at the College of St. Mark in Venice. When he was just 16, he entered the Capuchin Franciscan Order in Venice and received the name of Lawrence. He completed his studies of philosophy and theology at the University of Padua and was ordained a priest at 23. With his facility for languages Lawrence was able to study the Bible in its original texts. At the request of Pope Clement VIII, he spent much time preaching to the Jews in Italy. So excellent was his knowledge of Hebrew, the rabbis felt sure he was a Jew who had become a Christian. Lawrence's sensitivity to the needs of people—a character trait perhaps unexpected in such a talented scholar—began to surface. He was elected major superior of the Capuchin Franciscan province of Tuscany at the age of 31. He had the combination of brilliance, human compassion, and administrative skill needed to carry out his duties. In rapid succession he was promoted by his fellow Capuchins and was elected minister general of the Capuchins in 1602. In this position he was responsible for great growth and geographical expansion of the Order. Lawrence was appointed papal emissary and peacemaker, a job which took him to a number of foreign countries. An effort to achieve peace in his native kingdom of Naples took him on a journey to Lisbon to visit the king of Spain. Serious illness in Lisbon took his life in 1619. In 1956, the Capuchins completed a 15-volume edition of Lawrence’s writings. Eleven of these 15 contain his sermons, each of which relies chiefly on scriptural quotations to illustrate his teaching. Reflection His constant devotion to Scripture, coupled with great sensitivity to the needs of people, present a lifestyle which appeals to Christians today. Lawrence had a balance in his life that blended self-discipline with a keen appreciation for the needs of those whom he was called to serve.

He said to them in reply, "An evil and unfaithful generation seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. Just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. At the judgment, the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and there is something greater than Jonah here.

 13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men.Vos estis sal terrae. Quod si sal evanuerit, in quo salietur? ad nihilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittatur foras, et conculcetur ab hominibus. 14 You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid.Vos estis lux mundi. Non potest civitas abscondi supra montem posita, 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house.neque accedunt lucernam, et ponunt eam sub modio, sed super candelabrum, ut luceat omnibus qui in domo sunt. 16 So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.Sic luceat lux vestra coram hominibus : ut videant opera vestra bona, et glorificent Patrem vestrum, qui in caelis est. 17 Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.Nolite putare quoniam veni solvere legem, aut prophetas : non veni solvere, sed adimplere. 18 For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled.Amen quippe dico vobis, donec transeat caelum et terra, jota unum aut unus apex non praeteribit a lege, donec omnia fiant. 19 He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.Qui ergo solverit unum de mandatis istis minimis, et docuerit sic homines, minimus vocabitur in regno caelorum : qui autem fecerit et docuerit, hic magnus vocabitur in regno caelorum.St Lawrence of Brindisi, a Capuchin friar who for some years ruled his whole Order, acquired great fame for learning and eloquence, and labored with remarkable success through most parts of Europe preaching to Catholics, to Protestants, and to Jews. When 80,000 Turks invaded Hungary in 1605, he it was who inspired the united Christian armies of 18,000 men to the attack and himself led them to complete victory riding before them bearing a large cross. He died in Lisbon in 1611.

The LORD is a warrior, LORD is his name! Pharaoh's chariots and army he hurled into the sea; the elite of his officers were submerged in the Red Sea. Let us sing to the Lord; he has covered himself in glory.A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew (Mt 12:38-42, today's readings)."Just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. At the judgment, the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and there is something greater than Jonah here."Jesus responds to the Pharisees who are seeking a sign by saying that "an evil and unfaithful generation seeks a sign." The ultimate word of the Father, Jesus, tells them that no sign will be given to the people because he stands before them as the one whom all the signs point to. And then Jesus draws on the story of Jonah to give them a sign: just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale, so will Jesus be at his burial, resurrection, and second coming. The people of Nineveh, Jesus says, will rise in judgment against this generation because they responded to Jonah's message in faith. The greater message Jesus brings is an invitation to genuine repentance and faith.God, help me be aware of when I go looking for unmistakable signs that you are at work in my life. The quest to piece together occurrences into what appears to be a meaningful expression is to look for fulfillment of your plans. Sometimes events confirm that but at other times the signs point to an outcome that could not have been predicted. Strengthen my faith, Lord, to move forward today and every day in confidence that your will is actively guiding me as I seek to understand it and respond to it. The Gospel acclamation is a gentle reminder that I need not go far to find that Christ is present: "If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts." Saint Lawrence of Brindisi, pray for us!Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

I have been reminded over and over again in recent weeks of the preciousness of life as numerous dear friends and family members face loss of loved ones and their own life-altering health crises. This got me to thinking about how much my mentors have shaped my life. So with this latest episode I inaugurate a new Countermelody series entitled “Honor Your Mentors.” I have already posted numerous times on the podcast about my beloved teacher John Wustman. This coming July my friend and colleague Chanda VanderHart's monumental book Accompaniment in America: Contextualizing Collaborative Piano, co-authored with Kathleen Kelly and Elvia Puccinelli, will be published by Routledge. Chanda has put together an astonishing digital archive featuring a wealth of material related to the book: https://accompanimentinamerica.website/index.html Included in this material is an interview I did with Chanda about Mr. Wustman. Chanda has given me permission to include that interview on my podcast. This is supplemented by a sampling of (mostly) studio recordings of John featuring, among others, Régine Crespin, Carlo Bergonzi, Brigitte Fassbaender, Luciano Pavarotti, and Irina Arkhipova: truly an astonishing feast for the ears! Additionally, I was enormously saddened last week to read of the death of Joan Caplan, my first serious voice teacher in New York, and a phenomenal singer in her own right. Joan also remained a close friend through the years. In recent years she had been living at the Actors Fund Home in Englewood, New Jersey. I was able to visit her there last summer and had intended to go see her again later this month. Alas, that can no longer happen, but I will also be featuring Joan in an upcoming episode in the “Honor Your Mentors” series. In her memory today, I present her in a scintillating recording of Orsini's Brindisi from Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia. Finally, though I'm sure no one needs to be reminded of this, please, my dears, tell all those you love how much they mean to you; don't wait until their funerals to give them their flowers! Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Be Bold & Do the Works Jesus Did!John 14:12-13 “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”This is one of my favorite verses in the Bible.  it is one that I read, and when I heard it, I immediately believed it.  Some verses are like this in the Bible.  When you read the Bible, some things are easy to take in, and others are difficult.  These easy and difficult things are different for everyone.  We all have different experiences when we read the Bible because we have all had different experiences throughout our lives.  There is a quote by Steven R. Covey that I really like.  Steven R. Covey said, “We see the world, not as it is, but as we are.”  This is true for the Bible as well.  We look at and interpret the things we read in the Bible with our own unique lens.  For instance, if we had people letting us down our whole lives, we may read the parts of the Bible that talk about trust and struggle to believe we can trust God because we haven't been able to trust anyone on earth.  If we have grown up in a very unloving environment, we may struggle with the parts of the Bible that talk about unconditional love. Other things may come easier to us.  For me, I instantly loved this verse.  I know the Bible is God's Word and that God chose His words very carefully.  Sometimes, when we are reading the Bible, there may be a question in our minds about why they used this word vs. that word.  One thing I have learned from doing Bible studies is that there is always a reason why certain words were chosen.  Also, if you have done Bible studies, you have had the benefit of hearing all about the original Greek or Hebrew words that were used in the original translation and what those words meant.  Sometimes, when translated, we don't have an exact word to mean what they were saying. I find Bible studies fascinating because you gain so much more insight into what the verses are really saying.  Anyway, back to the verse.  I heard this verse or read this verse, and I believed Jesus' word to us.  I have never really been one to struggle with trust.  I grew up in a loving family; I had great friends growing up, I am blessed to be able to say I was not let down by those I know and cared about often growing up.  Therefore, I trust them pretty easily.But what if you don't trust easily?  What if you look at that verse and say there is no way we could perform the works Jesus did? Jesus was God; of course, He performed miracles.  Also, the apostles were right there with Him for 3 years during His ministry. Of course, they could do miracles too.  We can all usually agree that Jesus did miracles when He walked the earth, and we can also usually agree that the apostles were sent out, and they performed miracles, too.  We run into trouble by trying to believe we can do signs and wonders in today's world.  Who are we?  We are not holy enough; we are not worthy of that power and authority.  I agree with both of those statements and yet Jesus still says we will do the works that He did and even greater works than He did. How is this possible?It is possible through the Holy Spirit.  Did you ever realize or notice that no single miracle was recorded in the Gospels before Jesus was baptized?  Jesus was fully human and fully God the entire time He walked the earth.  There was nothing stopping Jesus from performing miracles during the first 30 years of His life.  However, He chose to wait until after He was baptized and received the Holy Spirit to start performing miracles.  This is something I recently found out and found fascinating.  It was unsurprising to me that Jesus did miracles in the Bible; he is God, after all.  I didn't know that Jesus didn't use his divinity to perform miracles.  He used the Holy Spirit, working through Him to perform the miracles.  He chose to put his divinity aside and act from his human nature, with the help of the Holy Spirit, because it would be greater glory for God.  St. Lawrence of Brindisi explains it like this:"Christ came into the world to do battle against Satan, to do away with idolatry, and to turn the world to faith and piety and the worship of the true God.  He could have accomplished this by using the weapons of his might and coming as he will come to judge, in glory and majesty… But in order that his victory might be the more glorious, he willed to fight Satan in our weak flesh. It is as if an unarmed man, right-hand bound, were to fight with his left hand alone against a powerful enemy; if he emerged victorious, his victory would be regarded as all the more glorious. So Christ conquered Satan with the right hand of his divinity bound, and used against him only the left hand of his weak humanity.”Is this new to you, too?  Did you know that God performed these miracles and defeated satan without using his divinity?  He relied on the power of the Holy Spirit working through Him.  Do you know why this changes everything?  It changes everything because Jesus also gave us the Holy Spirit to dwell within us.  If you are baptized, then you will have the Holy Spirit living inside of you.  If you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you, then you have the power to defeat Satan and to perform works as Jesus did.  Another one of my favorite verses is Romans 8:11: “ The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you…” I wish we all knew how much power we actually have inside our frail human bodies.This verse can be scary to many people.  Wait, if I can perform works like Jesus did, does that mean I have to travel worldwide and be a missionary like the disciples were?  No, you don't have to travel anywhere if you don't feel called to do that.  They talked about ministering to your sphere of influence in my class.  You can start small.  Be an example to your family, your friends, and your co-workers.  Let's read the verse again, “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”If you could believe and adopt this verse as your own personal truth, how much greater would your life be?  How great would it be to do works like Jesus did?  How great would it be to be able to heal a loved one?  Did you know there are people doing this every day?  Did you know there are lots of people who have read this verse, decided to believe it, and are now living out a supernatural lifestyle with the power of the Holy Spirit?  The last line of the verse says, “If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”  How awesome of a promise is that?  God has so much more for us, and we aren't asking for it.  We aren't going to God to ask Him what He has for us.  Why are we choosing to live a normal life when God is offering us a supernatural one of signs and wonders?  You might be thinking, that is great for you, Catherine.  I am glad you believe this verse, and you want that life, but I am happy with mine as is.  If this is what you are thinking, I challenge you over this next week or so to bring this to prayer.  I challenge you to be brave enough to talk to God about it.  Tell Him how you feel about this verse and ask Him if He has anything to say to you about it.  When we do signs and wonders, we build up people's faith.  Don't you think this world needs some faith-building right now?  Look at the day of Pentecost; 3,000 were baptized on that day.  I know this verse can be scary.  I know the thought of us healing or performing miracles is strange to most of us.  I know it is way outside of our comfort zone.  I also know God is calling us all to it.  I also know that this world needs people willing to step outside their comfort zone.  God needs people who will step out in faith, knowing they have the Holy Spirit inside them and that He will guide them.  If this verse is something that you struggle with, write it down and look at it often over the next month.  Bring it to God and ask Him to show you how this applies to your life.  Ask God what He wants you to do with this verse.  Be brave and bold. If you ask the Holy Spirit for help, He will help you.  Just start small.  Step out in faith and ask a loved one if they want you to pray for them.  If you spend time with God, He will guide you on this journey.  He will lead you to where you need to go.  We must be brave enough to say three small words, “Use me, Lord.”  Can you be brave enough to say those words?  Can we be Christ's hands and feet here on earth?  Remember, we have a good, good Father.  He is going to ease you into this lifestyle.  He will meet you where you are and build your faith along the way.  Trust Him and give Him permission to work in your life; give Him permission to use you, and He will.  Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today.  Lord, we ask you to send your angels to prepare the way for everyone listening to hear this message today.  We pray you give us the courage to believe this verse and to step out in faith, knowing you have given us the power of the Holy Spirit to help us do your work here on earth.  Lord, the world needs you more than ever, and if we can bring you to others, please show us how.  Show us what you want each of us to do.  Reveal to us what this verse means for each of us in our lives.  We love you, Lord; you are incredible.  We are so grateful you gave us the Holy Spirit.  Lord, you are the almighty one, the king of kings and the Lord of Lords.  You are the light of the world.  We ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name. Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.  I look forward to spending time with you again tomorrow.  Remember, Jesus loves you, and so do I.  Have a blessed weekend!Today's Word from the Lord was received in September 2024 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group.
