. “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” 1 John 2:15-17. St. Pope John Paul II said, “From Mary we learn to surrender to God’s will in all things. From Mary we learn to trust even when all hope seems gone. From Mary we learn to love Christ her Son, and the Son of God.” Let us pray, Lord Jesus, give us Your Spirit: that we may concentrate on what is noble and above. May we go after what pleases You; doing Your will so that our treasure will always be with You. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
