His soul-shaking experience on the road to Damascus has a parallel in our life. It's the conversion of Baptism, the first Luminous mystery that we pray today. With baptism, Christ comes to dwell in us. It was a day of grace that our souls mostly experience when we were infants. We were then unaware of the gift received, but for adults who receive this sacrament is a total conversion into a Christian life, a complete reversal of their manner of life. Think, for example, of saints like St. Augustine. With baptism, we should include our gratitude to God. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York

The Divinity wishes to shape the heart of every one of us until it is attuned to the heart of Christ Jesus. Through grace, trials, and opportunities, God works like a potter until He gets our souls fully cleansed and ready for eternal joy. "You belong to me, you belong to them," our Lord whispers to us. "You are under the protection of my hands. You are under the protection of my heart. Stay in my hands and give me yours." Through our daily Holy Rosary, we are nourished into God's eternal truth. The Rosary of Mary is the nourishment of the presence of God. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York [Picture above: God the Father by Cima da Conegliano, c. 1515]

Through John the Baptist, we are offered an eloquent example to imitate, so we can also become Christ’s witnesses. Along the way, in our spiritual journey, we will need to cultivate through prayer and study our knowledge of Jesus Christ and our holy religion. In addition, we will need to put into practice a sacramental and ecclesial life. Edifying friendships are required as well. Many of the fashionable ideas and proposals from our secular society can be avoided. Spending too much time on social media seems to be a toxic habit. By cultivating the virtues of the Rosary we can achieve a greater friendship with Jesus and Mary. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York (Text in Spanish) A través de Juan el Bautista, se nos ofrece un elocuente ejemplo para imitar, para que también podamos convertirnos en testigos de Cristo. En el camino, en nuestro viaje espiritual, necesitaremos cultivar a través de la oración y el estudio nuestro conocimiento de Jesucristo y nuestra religión santa. Además, necesitaremos poner en práctica una vida sacramental y eclesial. También se requieren amistades edificantes. Muchas de las ideas y propuestas de moda de nuestra sociedad secular se pueden evitar. Pasar demasiado tiempo en las redes sociales parece ser un hábito tóxico. Al cultivar las virtudes del Rosario lograremos una mayor amistad con Jesús y María.

Today, on the Memorial Day of St. Anthony, St. Paul is inviting us in his letter to the Hebrews (Heb 6:10-20) to be patient. Through faith and patience, we inherit the promises of Our Lord. God's ways are not our ways and He operates very differently to human times. Also, He always fulfills His promises. The fruit of the mystery of the Carrying of the Cross is patience. After patient waiting, as Abraham, and as all and every saint, we will obtain the divine promises. Always at the right time! Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York

Yesterday, in the Gospel, John the Baptist saw and testified that Christ is the Son of God. (Jn 1:29-34) "I saw the Spirit come down like a dove from heaven and remain upon him." This way, John the Baptist gave witness to the role of the Holy Spirit in Jesus' baptism. "He [Jesus Christ] is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit." With the Baptism, we all Christians are drawn out of this fallen world into a new world. It's the sacrament of our birth in the spiritual life. The Eucharist and the other sacraments nourish our life in communion with Jesus. We pray today, Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States, the Joyful Mysteries. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York [In the picture above, The Baptism of Christ by Andrea del Verrocchio and Leonardo da Vinci, c. 1475]
