Listen "Every single day is different"
Episode Synopsis
EVERY SINGLE DAY IS DIFFERENT —From the Gospel: Jesus came to Nazareth, where he had grown up, and went according to his custom into the synagogue on the sabbath day. He stood up to read and was handed a scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written:The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,because he has anointed meto bring glad tidings to the poor.He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free,and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord.Rolling up the scroll, he handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at him. He said to them,“Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.”(The divine: )And all spoke highly of himand were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth.They also asked, “Is this not the son of Joseph?”(The human: Jesus is a normal guy)—We have been called to put together the divine and the human, in our professional work in the middle of the world, as st Josemaria says:"Heaven and earth seem to merge, my children, on the horizon. But where they really meet is in your hearts, when you sanctify your everyday lives" —VOCATION TO WORK: human«Human life, by its very nature, must be dedicated to something, to a glorious or humble undertaking, to an illustrious or trivial destiny. It is a strange but inexorable condition, written into our existence. On the one hand, living is something that each person does for himself and for himself. On the other hand, if this life of mine, which matters only to me, is not dedicated by me to something, it will walk limping, without tension and without form. In recent years we have witnessed the gigantic spectacle of countless human lives that wander lost in the labyrinth of themselves because they have nothing to dedicate themselves to.»Divine —Sanctify the activity you are doing; turn it into a path towards holiness; make it possible to be a saint while doing that: putimg fruit at the Canadian superstore while praying for the families that will eat those products; —Sanctify yourself in the activity you are doing; grow in virtue; in love; in capacity of service; make more friends; —Sanctify others in the activity you are doing; COP TELLING A WOMAN WHAT YOU PROBABLY NEED IS TO GO TO CONFESSION; —Mary in Cana: enjoying a wedding reception; talking to Jesus; helping those around her; she picked up on the fact that they were running out of wine because she is a hosusw keeper and a mother working at home, so she noticed righ away; When we live our daily lives this way, every day is different every single day is a new adventure in the story of our vocation.
