4:57
God my mer mercy and my my Fortress my
5:01
stronghold my deliverer my shield in
5:04
whom I trust blessed be the Lord that
5:07
you take thought of him blessed be the
5:11
Lord my
5:28
rock the Lord to you oh Lord once when
5:31
Jesus was praying in solitude and the
5:34
disciples were with him he asked them
5:36
who do the crowds say that I am and they
5:40
said in reply John the Baptist others
5:43
Elijah and still others one of the
5:45
ancient prophets has arisen he rebuked
5:48
them and directed them not to tell the
5:50
chief priests and the scribes and be
5:53
killed and on the third day be raised
5:56
the gospel of the Lord to you Lord Jesus
6:01
Louise de Marillac a school of
6:04
spirituality so this is the end of this
6:06
kind of passion Rising can and should be
6:09
holy now of course was for monks and
6:12
nuns and for one not very useful and
6:15
then two the leoty for the most part got
6:18
up at dawn went to work at dawn got back
6:21
at dark came back did all the family
6:24
Duty stuff and by about 9:45 they
6:26
weren't exactly zipping off uh to the
6:28
arch conference fraternity of christian
6:30
mothers for a big old talk at the Town
6:32
Council they were going to sleep to get
6:34
up and do it all over again life was
6:36
very very hard and so it makes sense
6:38
that coming into the beginning I've got
6:41
a little bit of free time not a ton but
6:43
I want to invest that in the Lord and
6:45
everything out there is written for
6:46
monks and for nuns and so what do we do
6:50
and that's exactly what happened it was
6:52
actually a few hoyy toyy French women
6:54
who came to to a cardinal named brle and
6:56
said and a lot of the things that we
6:58
think personal reading of the Bible the
7:01
idea Mission or what we would think of
7:03
as a parish Mission inviting the priest
7:05
over for supper and asking him questions
7:08
these are all things that what which
7:10
seem to us like they've always been
7:12
around but really which arise in the
7:15
time of St Vincent to Paul and St Louis
7:17
de Marillac uh it's fascinating that the
7:20
second Vatican Council was deeply deeply
7:25
influenced by St Vincent dep Paul and St
7:28
Louise de marac in particular their
7:30
interest in caring for the poor and
7:33
their interest in personal Holiness it's
7:35
tragic to me that the implementation of
7:38
the second Vatican Council as certainly
7:40
in the United States rather than Embrace
7:43
that the Bishops of the United States
7:45
kind of looked around and said that's
7:46
what we're already doing the French
7:48
school was thriving in the United States
7:50
and they felt compelled to change it and
7:52
replace it with what is function the the
7:55
fundamental terms of ordinary living of
7:58
the Christian Life that idea of reading
8:00
the Bible the idea of praying daily the
8:03
idea of having a few little devotions
8:05
that we're connected to or whatever the
8:07
case might be getting together all of
8:10
these things really are the most clear
8:12
and direct path to Holiness there is no
8:15
secret there is no kind of magic trick
8:18
public processions the idea of put was
8:21
an absolute French thing the French just
8:23
cannot of of shoulder mounted um you
8:26
know carrying such Eucharistic
8:28
processions have CAU on in certain
8:30
places never in the Bible Belt alas but
8:33
it's one of those fascinating things
8:35
that that is really really spread all
8:38
over Europe and that never really landed
8:41
in the United States but the rest of it
8:43
the things that we would consider just
8:44
to be the traditional way to be Catholic
8:47
the way grandma was Catholic those are
8:49
the same tools that really were given to
8:53
the second Vatican Council encouraged by
8:55
the second Vatican Council and were
8:56
incredibly valuable in causing people to
8:59
grow in Holiness and to become good
9:01
Catholics and so we would consider to
9:03
have uh what the aspects of the the
9:06
religious life for monks and nuns could
9:08
be to people who are actually busy and
9:11
have things to do too busy to pray uh
9:14
there was one uh wonderful story I'll
9:16
leave you with with st Mother Teresa uh
9:18
mother just Mother Teresa who who
9:20
famously there was she was riding along
9:22
and and I'm not sure exactly where but
9:25
the priest was rambling and they were
9:26
talking about all the good things that
9:28
he was that was going on and he says I'm
9:31
so busy I barely even have time to pray
9:34
and mother with her big old Hunchback
9:35
popped up in the of it if you don't have
9:38
time to pray you have to stop all of it
9:40
and she had this wonderful little Joel
9:42
Olstein es quip where she said we must
9:45
never allow the work of the Lord vent to
9:48
Paul esque kind of kind of thing to say
9:51
is that personal Holiness is about
9:53
knowing the Lord and no amount of Good
9:55
Works can get in the way of knowing the
9:57
Lord and so a good reminder and just a
9:59
simple wonderful kind of Holiness that
10:01
all of us I think are attracted to
10:03
naturally and can get on board with and
10:05
so St Vincent dep Paul and St Louis de
10:07
Marillac this next week I will be in
