The Octave of Easter
"The school of Christ is the school of love. In the last day, when the general examination takes place ... Love will be the whole syllabus." St. Robert Bellarmine
In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus said what you did for the least of my brothers and sisters you did for Me. Today commit or recommit to living the Beatitudes as the foundation of your love for Jesus, [5:1-12].
When he saw the crowds, He went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, His disciples came to Him. He began to teach them, saying:
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
Blessed are you when you live The Beatitudes.
May God Be Praised. Alleluia, Alleluia.
