St. Medard and St. Gildard
Jesus said to his disciples, "Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever obeys and teaches these commandments will be called greatest in the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 5: 17-19).
If you look at the two saints of the day, St. Medard and St. Gildard, you may have never heard of them before. Our Church has such an incredible and deep history that we are unaware of so many great examples of our faith. Will you be a leader for your faith?
Christ Jesus, inspire me to use my will to conquer my feelings of laziness and selfishness.
