“Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses . . . They complained, “Is it through Moses alone that the Lord speaks?” . . . When both came forward, he said, “Now listen to the words of the Lord: Should there be a prophet among you, in visions will I reveal myself to him, in dreams will I speak to him; not so with my servant Moses! Throughout my house he bears my trust: face to face I speak to him; plainly and not in riddles. The presence of the Lord he beholds.” Numbers 12:1, 3-7. St. John of Avila said, “A single Blessed by God! When things go wrong; is of more value than a thousand acts of Thanksgiving when things are to our liking.”

Let us pray, Lord Jesus, we thank You for the gift of Mother Mary, Your Mother and our Mother. You exalted her above us all to play a unique role in the history of salvation. We thank you for all other people You exalt for the benefit of us all. Guide and protect them that they may continue to be a blessing to many. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
