“St. John Eudes recommended this prayer for the conversion of sinners and advised his spiritual children to say it at the bedside of the sick.
The Blessed Virgin promised him that ‘all who say it with devotion, or at least good will, if they are in the state of grace, receive an increase of Divine love in their hearts at each of the salutations or benedictions contained in it; if they are in mortal sin, She will knock at the door of their hearts with Her own sweet virginal hand to urge them to open it to grace.’ And She added that when persons are deep in sin and difficult to convert, it would be well to encourage them to say this salutation, or at least to consent having it said for them.” (Admirable Heart of Mary by St. John Eudes page 329)

Mt 10:26-33 --- Whom to Fear - Tibżgħux minn dawk li joqtlu lill-ġisem.
IN YEAR A - SUNDAY GOSPEL OF WEEK 12 IN ORDINARY TIME.
Evanġelju
Tibżgħux minn dawk li joqtlu lill-ġisem.
Mt 10, 26-33
Qari mill-Evanġelju skont San Mattew
F’dak iż-żmien, Ġesù qal lill-Appostli tiegħu: [Mt:10:26] “La tibżgħux mill-bnedmin. Għax xejn ma hu mgħotti li ma jinkixifx, u xejn ma hu moħbi li ma jsirx magħruf. [Mt:10:27] Dak li jien ngħidilkom fid-dlam għiduh fid-dawl, u dak li ngħidilkom f'widnejkom xandruh minn fuq il-bjut. [Mt:10:28] U tibżgħux minn dawk li joqtlu l-ġisem bla ma jistgħu joqtlu r-ruħ; imma aktar ibżgħu minn dak li jista' jeqred kemm ir-ruħ u kemm il-ġisem fl-infern.
[Mt:10:29] Żewġ għasafar tal-bejt m'hux b'ħabba jinbiegħu? U b'danakollu anqas wieħed minnhom ma jaqa' fl-art mingħajr ir-rieda ta' missierkom. [Mt:10:30] Intom imbagħad sa x-xagħar ta' raskom kollu hu magħdud. [Mt:10:31] Mela xejn la tibżgħu; intom aqwa minn ħafna għasafar tal-bejt. [Mt:10:32] "Kull min jistqarr quddiem il-bnedmin li hu miegħi, jien ukoll nistqarr li jiena miegħu quddiem Missieri li hu fis-smewwiet. [Mt:10:33] Iżda min jiċħad lili quddiem il-bnedmin, jien ukoll niċħad lilu quddiem Missieri li hu fis-smewwiet.

Nurse committing euthanasia: It was the most soul-wrenching thing I ever discovered - video published by Rome Reports on Jun 24, 2017
Piazza San Pietro, preghiera dell'Angelus, 25-06-2017
Speaking to the faithful gathered in St. Peter’s Square for theAngelusprayer, the Pope reflected on the liturgical reading of the day in which Jesus said to his disciples “Fear no one” but instructed them and prepared them to face the trials and persecutions the would suffer.
“Jesus’ mission, he said, did not guarantee the disciples success, nor did it shield them from failure or suffering.”
Likewise, the Pope said, Christians must consider the possibility of rejection and persecution: “this is a bit scary, but it is the truth.”
In fact, he explained, the disciple is called to conform his life to Christ, who was persecuted, rejected and abandoned to die on the cross.
“There is no Christian mission in the name of tranquility, the Pope said, difficulties and tribulations are part and package of evangelization” he said.
The Pope also explained that challenges are occasions in which “to verify the authenticity of our faith and of our relationship with Jesus” always within the knowledge that “God does not abandon his children during the storm”.
"In the difficulties of Christian witness in the world, we are never forgotten, but always assisted by the Father's thoughtful solicitude" he said.
Pope Francis also pointed out that even in our day persecution against Christians still exists.
“Let us pray for our brothers and sisters who are persecuted and praise the Lord because, in spite of this, they continue to witness their faith with courage and fidelity” he said.
Another test of faith - Francis continued - may even be the absence of hostility and tribulation.
"In addition to being ‘sheep in the midst of wolves’, the Lord also sends us forth as sentinels in the midst of people who do not want to be awakened from a worldly numbness, who ignore the truth of the Gospel message and build their own ephemeral truth" he said.
Hence, Pope Francis concluded, always heed Jesus’ encouragement not to fear those who mock and abuse, or those who ignore or appear to honor the Gospel but in reality go against it.
"Jesus does not leave us alone because we are precious to Him" he said.
After the recitation of the Angelus prayer, Pope Francis prayed for the victims of a landslide in southwestern China, he greeted the Lithuanian people who on Sunday celebrate the Blessed Theofilius Matulonius – the first Soviet-era Blessed of the nation, and he remembered the faithful of the Greek-Catholic Ukrainian Church who mark the 150th anniversary of the canonization of St. Josaphat.
