In today's reading (MT 22:34-40), Jesus Christ reveals what's needed for eternal joy and eternal salvation. He was tested by a scholar this way: "Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?" He said to him, "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments." In two words: love Jesus! Ave Maria!

There is an enemy of God and humanity, and it needs to be known. In the parable of the weeds in Matthew 13:24-30, Jesus speaks of an enemy who sows weeds among the wheat, and He identifies the enemy as "the evil one". Make no mistake: the evil has the intelligence of a supernatural being, but the Father of Lies can be defeated by humans through prayer. We do our part by imitating Jesus and Mary, and the Divinity will remove the weeds and dispose into fire at the right time. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York

Jesus Christ forgives us our sins, but we don’t easily forgive, as we are instructed to do in the third Luminous Mystery that we pray today. We tend to argue that the sins of some people close to us are unforgivable, because by forgiving, we would send a wrong message and the evilness of that person would continue. Well, our human logic is not the divine thinking. My ways are not your ways, says the Father to us. In Mathew 18:21, Peter asks Jesus, "Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times." Let’s fully embrace the mystery of forgiveness, simply because the Divinity designed it this way for our goodness and eternal salvation. Ave Maria!

• August 9, 2021, Today’s Holy Rosary on YouTube — Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • Audio Podcast of this Rosary Available Here Now! We pray today's Rosary from Roncesvalles, Navarre, the main entry point of the Way of St. James in Spain. In the month of August we celebrate two martyrs of Auschwitz, St. Maximilian Kolbe and St. Teresa Benedicta. Today is the Memorial Day of St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, also known as St. Edith Stein. Born into a prominent Jewish family in Breslau (now Wroclaw, Poland), she was a brilliant philosopher, university teacher, and major force in German intellectual life. Edith Stein was captivated by reading the autobiography of Teresa of Avila. Later she'd imitate Teresa by becoming a Carmelite Discalced. In 1942, she was arrested by the Nazi regime, along with all Catholics of Jewish extraction and transported by cattle train to the death camp of Auschwitz. Teresa Benedicta and her sister Rosa, also a Catholic, died in a gas chamber in Auschwitz on August 9, 1942. Pope John Paul II beatified Teresa Benedicta in 1987 and canonized her in 1998. Ave Maria!
