CANDLE FOR BLESSED SACRAMENT For the Soul of Rezia Fernandes

SUNDAY, JANUARY 1ST, 2017

GOSPEL MEDITATION In today’s Gospel, let us see how Mary is asking us to take

time to ponder who Jesus is and what he has done for you.

Imagine Mary asking you to treasure him above everything

else. She is asking us to join her in praising God with all your

heart. Imagine her inviting you to dedicate the first affections

of your heart to Jesus by rejoicing in him, singing to him, and

worshipping him.Mary is not only your mother; she is your

prayer partner as well. So join her today, and pray your own

Magnificat.“Jesus, let my soul magnify you! Let my spirit

rejoice in your salvation!”

La Meditazione del Vangelo Nel Vangelo di oggi, vediamo come Maria ci chiede di

prendere tempo per riflettere su chi è Gesù e quello che ha fatto per noi. Immaginiamo Maria, che porta un Tesoro al mondo per la nostra salvezza, Lei ci chiede di unirsi a Lei e

lodare Dio con tutto il cuore. Immaginate la Sua vita dedicata hai primi affetti del suo cuore per Gesù, la gioia, il

canto di lode per Lui e adorarlo. Maria non è solo una madre; lei è il nostro partner di preghiera. Così unirsi a lei oggi, e pregare il proprio Magnificat ". Gesù, lasciate che la mia

anima si ingrandisca! Lasciate che il mio spirito gioisce per la salvezza del mondo! "

Meditación del Evangelio En el Evangelio de hoy, vemos cómo María nos pide que tome tiempo para pensar acerca de quién es Jesús y lo

que él ha hecho por nosotros. Imaginar a María, que lleva un tesoro al mundo para salvarnos, usted nos pide que lo

acompañe y alabar a Dios con todo tu corazón. Imagine su vida que han dedicado los primeros afectos de su corazón a Jesús, la alegría, el canto de alabanza a Él y adorarlo. María no es sólo una madre; Ella es nuestra compañeros

de oración. Así que unirse a ella hoy, y rezar su propio Magnificat ". Jesús, que mi alma magnifica! Que mi espíritu

se alegra en la salvación del mundo!"
