Christ came to dwell in us during our baptism. It was our first conversion, although in most of us were unaware of the gift received as we were baptized as infants. If we are lukewarm or Christians merely from habit or tradition — unconscious Christians — we must be converted to a zealously faithful life. Our repentance must include gratitude to God and be exercised with a simple heart. Another "Damascus hour" is the Eucharist moment in holy Mass. Here, too, Christ meets us. Every Mass affects a conversion, a change in us. We bring our human wants and weaknesses to the altar, and in exchange receive grace and divine Bread in Holy Communion. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! St. Paul, Pray for Us! To Jesus through Mary! Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York

Thousands of Americans gathered today in Washington, DC for the 51st annual March for Life, the second in a post-Roe America. The faithful showed support for the right to life — a life-affirming culture that respects the inherent dignity of all human life. The theme this year ‘With every woman, for every child’ focused on the need to care for both mother and child during the nine months of pregnancy and in the years after. Pregnancy care centers and maternity homes across the country exist to provide support for women facing unexpected pregnancies so that no mother ever feels alone or without support on her journey. The annual March for Life is the world’s largest annual human rights demonstration. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! To Jesus through Mary!

This week in the Gospel we see Christ Jesus curing many, including a man with a withered hand (Mark 3:1–6) as well those who had diseases and were pressing to touch him (Mk 3:7-12). The unclean spirits were falling before him shouting, "You are the Son of God." These healings signified the arrival of the kingdom of God. His person was an entirely new way of ordering things — based on unconditional love and kindness. This way of life made demons crazy and awakened the opposition of the powers of that time — the Pharisees and the religious establishment. Our Lord permitted all of that darkness to crush Him. But then, on the third day, He would rise again from the dead in the power of the Holy Spirit, swallowing up the darkness of the world. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! To Jesus through Mary!

"Glorify God in your body," as the Holy Spirit tells us through St. Paul in his letter to the Corinthians (1 Cor 6:13c-15a, 17-20), as we read yesterday. The first teaching emphasizes avoiding immorality, particularly sexual immorality. "Our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within us," St. Paul wrote. Dark forces in our society have promoted evil ideologies that push the idea that our body is for pleasure. Moreover, according to this view, one's gender can be chosen. It’s all about going against the Divine and the Holy Spirit. We all know the destructive consequences of sin. "You are not your own. For you have been purchased at a price," Paul said. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! To Jesus through Mary! Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will. + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York
