Friends of the Rosary,

Today’s first reading (Matthew 12:38-42), on the feast of St. Apollinaris, Bishop and Martyr, we see the opponents of the Lord asking for a sign from Heaven. Jesus tells them that no sign will be given except the sign of Jonah, that is, the resurrection.

Christ the Lord points out that repentance is the sign they are missing. The people of Nineveh heard a warning and changed.

The Queen of the South traveled far to seek wisdom. But standing before the scribes and Pharisees is Someone greater than Jonah and greater than Solomon, and still they resist.

God wants a heart that becomes repentant, merciful, and humble. He is not asking for religious performance without conversion.

The sign is already here: Christ died and rose. Now the question is whether we will repent, listen, and walk humbly.

Ave Maria!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!

Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
