The Gospel today is Matthew 5:17-19 “Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy but to fulfill.”

Excerpt from the Twentieth Hour, from 12 to 1 PM, of the First Hour of Agony on the Cross, from the Hours of the Passion.

My Jesus, Adored Crucified, in these three hours of most bitter agony, You want to give Fulfillment to everything; and while, silent, You remain on this Cross, I see that in Your Interior You want to satisfy the Father in everything.  You Thank Him for all, You satisfy Him for all, You beseech Forgiveness for all, and for all You impetrate the Grace that they may never again offend You.  In order to impetrate this from the Father You go through all of Your Life, from the first instant of Your Conception, up to Your last Breath.  My Jesus, Endless Love, let me go through all Your Life together with You, with the Inconsolable Mama, with Saint John, and with the pious women.
