Proverbs 21:1-6 NKJV
[1] The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, Like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes. [2] Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, But the LORD weighs the hearts. [3] To do righteousness and justice Is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. [4] A haughty look, a proud heart, And the plowing of the wicked are sin. [5] The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty, But those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty. [6] Getting treasures by a lying tongue Is the fleeting fantasy of those who seek death.

Proverbs 21:10-13 (NKJV)
10 The soul of the wicked desires evil;
His neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.
11 When the scoffer is punished, the simple is made wise;
But when the wise is instructed, he receives knowledge.
12 The righteous God wisely considers the house of the wicked,
Overthrowing the wicked for their wickedness.
13 Whoever shuts his ears to the cry of the poor
Will also cry himself and not be heard.

Psalm 119:1,27,30,34,35,44 (NKJV)
Psalm 119  (NKJV)
119:1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way,
Who walk in the law of the Lord!

27 Make me understand the way of Your precepts;
So shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.

30 I have chosen the way of truth;
Your judgments I have laid before me.

34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law;
Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
35 Make me walk in the path of Your commandments,
For I delight in it.

44 So shall I keep Your law continually,
Forever and ever.


Gospels or the day Luke 8:19-21
19 Then His mother and brothers came to Him, and could not approach Him because of the crowd. 20 And it was told Him by some, who said, “Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see You.” 21 But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”

Matthew 24:46-47
46 Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. 47 Assuredly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all his goods.

Luke 12:42
42 And the Lord said, “Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of food in due season?

Priest is speaking about a man named Pedro Pio. He dedicated his life at a very young age. Pedro Pio is a controversial person in the Catholic Church.

He had received a stigmata

In July 1918 the Pope asked the whole world to pray for peace.

Pedro Pio prayed on that same day asking God to use him to help provide peace in the world.

Pedro Pio thinks the stigmata, came from that prayer. He was was suffering for the world.

He believed you should, pray, hope and not worry.

People all had their own opinions about him. But, there is something special about someone that is willing to suffer for us and God's kingdom.

Pray, hope and don't worry.

Suffering for the will of God can lead us closer to God and a holier life.
