Word for Thursday June 25. St. Prosper of Aquitaine and St. William of Montevergine.

“At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven . . . Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock; and the rain fell, and the floods came; and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.” Matthew 7:21, 24-25. St. Vincent de Paul said, “We must not be content with good intentions, but must act.” Lord Jesus, You teach us that true faith in You is not mere lip service, but putting into action what we believe. Grant us the grace to live our faith sincerely and in deeds. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
