00:00:00Active evangelization, in its desire to bring the Gospel to all people,

00:00:12presents his collection of songs, Sowers of the Gospel.

00:00:17We hope that by listening to them, the seed of the Gospel will bear fruit in their hearts.

00:00:24With you, Father Ernesto María Caro.

00:00:30In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

00:00:41Lord, we want to ask you tonight to pour out your Spirit abundantly,

00:00:47so that we can continue to learn about this path through which you lead us until we can reach perfection.

00:00:55You want to make us perfect men and women.

00:01:00Full of virtue and grace, transformed into the image of your Son Jesus.

00:01:05Help us understand tonight, this first stage in which we need to work,

00:01:12if we want to one day be able to radiate this wonderful image of Jesus, your Son.

00:01:19Most Holy Virgin, you who helped Jesus in his early stages, when he was little.

00:01:26Help us now too, you helped Him to grow as a human being.

00:01:31We ask that you now help us spiritually.

00:01:34In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

00:01:38Well, today we're going to continue with this reflection that we've set out to do this week,

00:01:50to understand a little bit about the process through which God manages to sculpt us,

00:01:56the image of his beloved Son.

00:01:58Because, as we said on the first day, this is its purpose.

00:02:04That's why He created us, to make images and likenesses of His beloved Son.

00:02:09And well, we've been comparing this work, this process,

00:02:14with the work that a sculptor does when carving in stone

00:02:18And then gradually extract that wonderful figure from it, right?

00:02:21As Michelangelo said, sculpting is nothing other than freeing the image that is already inside a rock.

00:02:29And well, that's what God is doing with us.

00:02:32We were saying, our life, which has been, well, deformed.

00:02:37We were using the example of lava, perhaps.

00:02:40This material that sticks to us

00:02:43and that little by little distorts the image of Jesus in our lives.

00:02:50Yesterday we saw this wonderful image of Jesus

00:02:53and of some of the men and women

00:02:55who have reflected this image to the whole world.

00:03:01Today we will begin the second part of this reflection

00:03:06where we will see how this process unfolds.

00:03:09We were saying that this process of making ourselves an image of Jesus Christ

00:03:18It is carried out in three stages.

00:03:22It is also called the three ages of the inner life, as in a growth.

00:03:27The first stage, purification.

00:03:30The second stage, lighting.

00:03:33And the last and third stage is the life of union,

00:03:36also called the perfect ones.

00:03:39Well then, let's begin tonight with this reflection.

00:03:45which, I don't know about you, but at least for me, well, it has revealed

00:03:49There is still a long way to go,

00:03:51areas where I still need to work,

00:03:54still harshly,

00:03:56allowing the Lord to devastate this rock

00:03:59that has formed in me.

00:04:01This spiritual life is characterized by struggle,

00:04:07First and foremost, to escape mortal sin.

00:04:11This stage is characterized by the fact that it will require participation

00:04:16very important to all of us.

00:04:18God will do little and we will have to work a lot.

00:04:27This is the important stage of roughing out,

00:04:30where the Lord, then, would certainly use

00:04:34the large chisels, the large mallets,

00:04:37to start throwing away all this rock.

00:04:39But it's a difficult stage,

00:04:41Because, obviously, well, as we were saying,

00:04:45Marble does not defend itself.

00:04:48They might try to throw a very large rock at him.

00:04:51and, well, take away a large part of what

00:04:54thinks it is,

00:04:55because the marble thinks it is that rock,

00:04:57If we could put it this way.

00:04:59And then, at the time that the artist,

00:05:03Well, he makes the first chisel blows,

00:05:06Well, it's going to remove some very large pieces.

00:05:08very important parts of its marble being.

00:05:12Well, at this stage,

00:05:14The Lord seeks us too.

00:05:16that we remove large blocks,

00:05:20large elements that do not allow

00:05:22that the image of Jesus may be reflected.

00:05:26A large participation of man

00:05:28and therefore, an always important participation

00:05:32of God in this.

00:05:34But, it's important that we make this clear.

00:05:37that, if we, this stage

00:05:39It's not going to go ahead.

00:05:42We wish God would do everything.

00:05:45But first, the artist has to prepare.

00:05:48the work.

00:05:49And it depends on whether you're willing.

00:05:52then continue the work.

00:05:55Here, when I start talking about this,

00:05:57Well, the idea of marble is starting to seem distant.

00:06:00from sculpting in rock,

00:06:02Because here, we really

00:06:05We're going to defend ourselves.

00:06:08We need to cooperate greatly

00:06:10with the Spirit

00:06:11so that God can do his work in us.

00:06:16He's going to take away what we don't need.

00:06:19And what is the idea behind this purification stage?

00:06:22This stage of purification is intended to help us

00:06:25Let us turn away from mortal sin,

00:06:28Yeah?

00:06:29Of mortal sin

00:06:30to live in a way

00:06:32continue in grace.

00:06:35That's the difference.

00:06:35The common Christian,

00:06:40Yeah?

00:06:41He comes, he confesses,

00:06:43and again, and again.

00:06:44That's usually what happens to us.

00:06:47Once, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again.

00:06:51And we're always stuck in this first stage.

00:06:54We are always in this first stage

00:06:56where the image of Jesus

00:06:58It is practically impossible to discover it in our lives.

00:07:02Because?

00:07:03Because it is covered by mortal sin.

00:07:08At the end of this stage, we need

00:07:12having overcome mortal sin

00:07:14to live in a way

00:07:15continue in grace.

00:07:18Which, we should say,

00:07:19is the natural state

00:07:21of all Christians.

00:07:23Christians should live ordinary lives

00:07:25always in grace.

00:07:28That's what allows

00:07:29that it be transparent

00:07:31already the life of God in our person.

00:07:36To this first stage

00:07:37It is called initial conversion.

00:07:40A lot of people go there

00:07:42to the introductory courses

00:07:44or to Father Larrañaga's workshops

00:07:47or to courses

00:07:48or, in short,

00:07:50to many of these movements

00:07:52that propose a first conversion.

00:07:55This first conversion

00:07:57It's a very long process.

00:08:00Sometimes they say,

00:08:00No, well, I already went.

00:08:01Or I already confessed.

00:08:03This first conversion

00:08:05it doesn't end

00:08:06until truly

00:08:08it begins to become transparent

00:08:10the life of grace.

00:08:12until it becomes transparent

00:08:14You haven't reached it yet

00:08:15the first conversion.

00:08:18You may have started it

00:08:19in the renewal movement,

00:08:21You may have started it

00:08:22in courses,

00:08:23You may have started it

00:08:24right here in the parish,

00:08:28anywhere

00:08:28you may have started,

00:08:30but it won't end

00:08:31until you are

00:08:32in the second stage.

00:08:35This whole stage

00:08:36It's a job,

00:08:37We all witnessed it,

00:08:38which is a job

00:08:40which takes us years.

00:08:41How long

00:08:42we'll take it

00:08:43confessing

00:08:44many times

00:08:44of the same sin?

00:08:47Without managing to get out

00:08:48definitely

00:08:50of mortal sin.

00:08:53Still

00:08:54we continue

00:08:55confessing

00:08:56of grave sins.

00:08:59It means

00:08:59that this stage

00:09:00We haven't gotten over it yet.

00:09:02The author

00:09:03He still needs to keep insisting.

00:09:05And that often happens.

00:09:07It's because we

00:09:07we have put

00:09:08little attention.

00:09:11And everyone

00:09:12need

00:09:12to experience this process.

00:09:14This process

00:09:15Paul himself

00:09:17He experienced it.

00:09:18I've already commented

00:09:18with you

00:09:19the appointment

00:09:19from Titus 3:3

00:09:21where

00:09:22the apostle says

00:09:24we went

00:09:25also

00:09:26of this class

00:09:27of men.

00:09:28And it is

00:09:29referring

00:09:29well to all

00:09:30evil

00:09:31that comes out

00:09:32naturally

00:09:32product

00:09:33of this disease,

00:09:35of this problem

00:09:36that everyone

00:09:36have

00:09:36which is called

00:09:37sin

00:09:38of which

00:09:39we have spoken

00:09:40already abundantly

00:09:41that inhabits

00:09:42in our heart

00:09:43as Paul says

00:09:44in his letter

00:09:45to the Romans

00:09:45Chapter 7

00:09:46from the

00:09:47verse 14

00:09:48there is a force

00:09:50that pushes me

00:09:51continuously

00:09:52to do

00:09:53what I don't want.

00:09:56This

00:09:56is part

00:09:57of our life

00:09:58and it's part

00:09:59of our process

00:10:00in this first

00:10:01conversion.

00:10:03Maybe

00:10:04for those who

00:10:04We are here

00:10:05this stage

00:10:06may be

00:10:06already back

00:10:08in our life

00:10:09there may be

00:10:09already been

00:10:10overcome

00:10:11but always

00:10:12it's worth it

00:10:13review it

00:10:14because

00:10:15the world

00:10:15it returns us

00:10:16to pull

00:10:16and to destroy

00:10:18in us

00:10:18the image

00:10:19that Christ

00:10:20is forming

00:10:21in our hearts.

00:10:23Sometimes

00:10:23we think

00:10:24no

00:10:24well now

00:10:25yeah I know

00:10:25happens

00:10:26I'm here

00:10:26already

00:10:26but

00:10:28we are deceiving ourselves

00:10:30and still

00:10:32we have not

00:10:32overcome

00:10:33this first

00:10:33stage

00:10:34and we want

00:10:34advance

00:10:35until the

00:10:35second

00:10:35And it's going to be

00:10:37very difficult

00:10:37I mean, not very difficult.

00:10:39It's going to be

00:10:39impossible

00:10:40arrive

00:10:41second time

00:10:42conversion

00:10:43if we haven't

00:10:43overcome

00:10:44completely

00:10:45look

00:10:46completely

00:10:47this first

00:10:48conversion

00:10:49where

00:10:50us

00:10:50we can say

00:10:51I've gone out

00:10:52definitely

00:10:53of sin

00:10:54mortal

00:10:55definitely

00:10:57living

00:10:58in a way

00:10:58continues

00:10:59the rest

00:11:01of my life

00:11:02I mean

00:11:03that is to say

00:11:03anymore

00:11:05to sin again

00:11:06seriously

00:11:07anymore

00:11:08never

00:11:08so

00:11:10the work

00:11:11of grace

00:11:12it begins to show through

00:11:14to Christ

00:11:15that his

00:11:16central element

00:11:17it will be then

00:11:18grace

00:11:19They are the first

00:11:20highlights

00:11:21that

00:11:22they come out of

00:11:24people

00:11:24that have

00:11:25progressed

00:11:27in this first

00:11:27stage

00:11:28for

00:11:30to be able to work

00:11:31and leave

00:11:32work for God

00:11:33at this stage

00:11:33we must continue

00:11:34some guidelines

00:11:36I'm going to propose

00:11:37five points

00:11:38in which you

00:11:40They will have to be reviewed

00:11:41the idea

00:11:42as I have told you

00:11:43in the exercises

00:11:44spiritual

00:11:45the thing is

00:11:46the one who gives

00:11:47the exercises

00:11:48propose

00:11:49a series of elements

00:11:50about which

00:11:50we can

00:11:51focus on reflection

00:11:52I've always wanted

00:11:54give these exercises

00:11:55the first week

00:11:56of Lent

00:11:57so that

00:11:58Let's have at least

00:11:59another four weeks

00:12:00to work

00:12:01intensely

00:12:02in what the Holy Spirit

00:12:04He already told you

00:12:05that you have to work

00:12:06each

00:12:07as I was saying yesterday

00:12:08throughout these days

00:12:10try to locate

00:12:12in which part

00:12:13of this stage

00:12:14this

00:12:14so that I can

00:12:16use the tools

00:12:18and know

00:12:19which are

00:12:19the dangers

00:12:20and the obstacles

00:12:22that prevent

00:12:22that we

00:12:23we can pass

00:12:24to the next stage

00:12:26So I propose

00:12:27five elements

00:12:29in order to be able to

00:12:31go out

00:12:32of sin

00:12:33mortal

00:12:34and be able to live

00:12:35fully

00:12:36in grace

00:12:37first

00:12:39the first element

00:12:40that I propose

00:12:41is

00:12:41discover

00:12:42my areas

00:12:43of weakness

00:12:44we would also say

00:12:47recognize us

00:12:49sinners

00:12:50when David

00:12:54well it is

00:12:55surprised

00:12:56by the prophet

00:12:58Nathan

00:12:58and makes him see

00:12:59his sin

00:13:00exclaims

00:13:02in the psalm

00:13:0451

00:13:05for your love

00:13:07Oh God

00:13:08have compassion

00:13:09of me

00:13:09for your great

00:13:10tenderness

00:13:10erase my guilt

00:13:12wash me

00:13:13of evil

00:13:14clean me

00:13:15of my sin

00:13:16I recognize

00:13:18that I have been

00:13:18rebel

00:13:19my sin

00:13:20It doesn't get erased

00:13:21of my mind

00:13:22against you

00:13:23I have sinned

00:13:24and only

00:13:24against you

00:13:25doing bad things

00:13:26what you

00:13:27convictions

00:13:28that's why

00:13:29in your sentence

00:13:30You'll be right.

00:13:32is irreproachable

00:13:33your judgment

00:13:34first

00:13:36what needs to be done

00:13:37siblings

00:13:38is to recognize

00:13:39where we are

00:13:40because

00:13:42the problem

00:13:43in our

00:13:44confessions

00:13:45or in many

00:13:46of them

00:13:46is that we

00:13:47we believe

00:13:47good

00:13:48why not

00:13:50we do

00:13:51things

00:13:52catastrophic

00:13:59but we have done

00:14:02things

00:14:23and we

00:14:24for convenience

00:14:25We didn't

00:14:27It is a sin

00:14:28very serious

00:14:29probably

00:14:31more serious

00:14:31than others

00:14:31of those we

00:14:32we consider

00:14:33grave sins

00:14:34because there

00:14:38there is a full

00:14:38awareness

00:14:39remember that

00:14:41so that there is

00:14:41mortal sin

00:17:07serious

00:17:08really

00:17:11our whole life

00:17:13above all

00:17:14modern life

00:17:15where

00:17:15well we have

00:17:16made passers

00:17:24all that

00:17:25has been creating

00:17:26in us

00:17:26sometimes

00:17:26concepts

00:17:27wrong

00:17:28with some frequency

00:17:30I run into

00:17:31in confession

00:17:31with someone

00:17:33what does he tell me

00:17:33He already confessed

00:17:36and

00:17:37with faults

00:17:38truly

00:17:38serious

00:17:39and then

00:17:40he tells me

00:17:41this

00:17:42Well

00:17:42I don't know if I will have

00:17:44done wrong

00:17:44but on Sunday

00:17:45past

00:17:45I received communion

00:17:46because

00:17:47They told me

00:17:48that could

00:17:51commune

00:17:52regret

00:17:53and then

00:17:54come to confess

00:17:56No

00:17:56you can't

00:17:59do that

00:18:00I was telling them

00:18:02on some occasion

00:18:03imagine

00:18:04to put them

00:18:05an example

00:18:05imagine

00:18:07that arrives

00:18:08the child

00:18:08after having

00:18:10I've been playing

00:18:10with mud

00:18:11and it arrives like this

00:18:12with the hands

00:18:13like that but

00:18:14all covered

00:18:15of socket

00:18:15and then

00:18:17the mother

00:18:18prepared

00:18:19a delicious

00:18:20cake

00:18:21and the orchard

00:18:23says

00:18:23oh mommy

00:18:24wanna

00:18:24first

00:18:25wash

00:18:25you're not going to get it

00:18:27with your hands

00:18:27full of mud

00:18:28the cake

00:18:28because?

00:18:31because it's bad for you

00:18:32You're going to fill

00:18:34mud

00:18:35the cake

00:18:35exactly the same

00:18:37I mean

00:18:38You can't

00:18:39zoom in

00:18:39to the Eucharist

00:18:40in this circumstance

00:18:42first

00:18:43you have to

00:18:44wash yourself

00:18:44you have to

00:18:45purify yourself

00:18:46and then

00:18:47You can now

00:18:48access

00:18:49to the sacrament

00:18:50need

00:18:54so

00:18:54discover

00:18:55our passions

00:18:55dominant

00:18:56because there

00:18:58The problem arises

00:18:59our problem

00:19:02of sin

00:19:03the thing is

00:19:03We all have

00:19:04at least

00:19:04a

00:19:05but we can

00:19:07have more

00:19:08but at least

00:19:09a passion

00:19:10dominant

00:19:11It's something

00:19:12that is

00:19:12inside

00:19:13of our

00:19:13heart

00:19:14that because

00:19:15different

00:19:15situations

00:19:16of our

00:19:16life

00:19:17has made us

00:19:18weak

00:19:18in this area

00:19:19and obviously

00:19:21the demon

00:19:22She knows her

00:19:22and around

00:19:23We're going to be

00:19:24approaching

00:19:24the material

00:19:25so that it

00:19:26excite passion

00:19:27and let's be

00:19:28always involved

00:19:29in the same

00:19:30hole

00:19:31and it's not very

00:19:33difficult

00:19:33discover them

00:19:34because

00:19:35ordinarily

00:19:36are related

00:19:37with sins

00:19:38capital

00:19:39that is to say

00:19:40with the meat

00:19:41our work

00:19:44at this stage

00:19:45it's work

00:19:45against this flesh

00:19:47that we don't

00:19:48allows to grow

00:19:49that we don't

00:19:50allows

00:19:51develop

00:19:52because

00:19:52or there is lust

00:19:54or greed

00:19:56or laziness

00:19:57or gluttony

00:19:58or envy

00:20:00or pride

00:20:01or anger

00:20:03one of those

00:20:05is present

00:20:07in your life

00:20:07in a way

00:20:08dominant

00:20:09if not more

00:20:11and these

00:20:14are the ones that go

00:20:15to provoke

00:20:16sin

00:20:17They're going to take us

00:20:18to sin

00:20:19that's why

00:20:20first

00:20:21that I need

00:20:22know

00:20:22which are

00:20:23the areas

00:20:23older

00:20:24weakness

00:20:25in my life

00:20:25so I can

00:20:27find out

00:20:28and put

00:20:28attention

00:20:29in temptations

00:20:31and see

00:20:31how does it go

00:20:32developing

00:20:33this process

00:20:35of sin

00:20:35in my own

00:20:36life

00:20:36so the first thing

00:20:38What do I need to do?

00:20:39first

00:20:40recognize me

00:20:41sinner

00:20:42and know

00:20:43that I am

00:20:43sinner

00:20:44because there are

00:20:45an area

00:20:46of my life

00:20:46where I am

00:20:47weak

00:20:47at least one

00:20:48and I need

00:20:49detect it

00:20:50don't deceive me

00:20:52but

00:20:54discover

00:20:55which one

00:20:56of sins

00:20:57capital

00:20:58is where

00:20:59I generally

00:21:00failed

00:21:01That's where

00:21:02operates with great

00:21:04force

00:21:04sin

00:21:05to take

00:21:06advantage

00:21:07one second

00:21:09moment

00:21:10a second

00:21:11thing that

00:21:12we need to do

00:21:13is

00:21:15take the firm

00:21:17decision

00:21:17to change

00:21:18the decision

00:21:20of being another

00:21:21to leave

00:21:23of sinning

00:21:23and continue

00:21:24to Christ

00:21:24And I believe

00:21:26that this

00:21:27my beloved

00:21:27siblings

00:21:28It is a

00:21:28of the most

00:21:29important

00:21:30and where

00:21:32a lot of people

00:21:33it gets stuck

00:21:34because if already

00:21:36knows that battle

00:21:37with anger

00:21:38or with laziness

00:21:38or with gluttony

00:21:39with lust

00:21:41but it has not taken

00:21:43the decision

00:21:44to step aside

00:21:46her

00:21:46has not taken

00:21:48the decision

00:21:49never to return

00:21:51to sin

00:21:52It has to be

00:21:53a decision

00:21:55irrevocable

00:21:56I won't return

00:21:58to sin

00:21:59at least

00:22:00in what I know

00:22:01on my part

00:22:02that's why

00:22:03immediately

00:22:03of contrition

00:22:04which is what

00:22:05we promise

00:22:06what really

00:22:07we promise

00:22:08It is not about not sinning

00:22:09but helped

00:22:11by your grace

00:22:12avoid the occasions

00:22:14if you already know

00:22:16that always

00:22:17that you're going

00:22:17with the

00:22:18compadre Filemón

00:22:19you're going to finish

00:22:19where you shouldn't

00:22:20and you continue

00:22:24accepting

00:22:24go with him

00:22:25because never

00:22:28you're going out

00:22:29of your problem

00:22:29always

00:22:32you're going to fall

00:22:33because?

00:22:33because you haven't taken

00:22:34the firm decision

00:22:36to leave

00:22:37that

00:22:38that you are

00:22:39preventing

00:22:40progress

00:22:40on the way

00:22:41of life

00:22:42as an example

00:22:44I'll put them

00:22:45simply

00:22:45two passages

00:22:47of writing

00:22:48one in the book

00:22:49by Marcos

00:22:50Chapter 10

00:22:51from verse 17

00:22:53Well

00:22:53all these

00:22:54first verses

00:22:55they tell us

00:22:56the meeting

00:22:57of Jesus

00:22:57with this person

00:22:58a person

00:23:00rich

00:23:01who wants

00:23:02Follow the Lord

00:23:03I think that

00:23:03all of us who are

00:23:04here we want

00:23:05follow him

00:23:05I think that

00:23:06all of us who are

00:23:07here

00:23:07We would like to be saints

00:23:08we would like perfect

00:23:10but

00:23:12the problem

00:23:12It's that we haven't

00:23:13decided

00:23:14And here we come

00:23:15to mass

00:23:15and we put our heart into it

00:23:16and maybe

00:23:17We've come with a lot of enthusiasm.

00:23:18to our exercises

00:23:19spiritual

00:23:19and

00:23:22at the time

00:23:22of the hour

00:23:23Hey, but

00:23:25oh but

00:23:25Oh no

00:23:26oh yeah

00:23:27It's over.

00:23:28all

00:23:29TRUE?

00:23:31the young man

00:23:32rich

00:23:33because I was coming

00:23:35delighted

00:23:36to follow the Lord

00:23:36no more

00:23:38that at the time

00:23:39that he said

00:23:39leave your belongings

00:23:41and follow me

00:23:41if you want to be

00:23:42perfect

00:23:43because it was already good

00:23:43maybe he

00:23:44this stage

00:23:45I had already thrown it in.

00:23:45because he told her

00:23:47from a young age

00:23:48I fulfill them

00:23:50Because Jesus says

00:23:53He obeys the commandments

00:23:54says no

00:23:54that since I was little

00:23:55I fulfill them

00:23:56ah

00:23:56so

00:23:57wants to be perfect

00:23:59Well

00:23:59so

00:24:00come from all over

00:24:01Come and follow me

00:24:02And that's all.

00:24:03arrive

00:24:03up to that point

00:24:07arrive

00:24:07maybe

00:24:10It is the decision

00:24:11most important

00:24:13of our life

00:24:14siblings

00:24:15make the decision

00:24:17to leave

00:24:18sin

00:24:19me too

00:24:20I tell them

00:24:20It is the decision

00:24:21most important

00:24:22decide to become Christian

00:24:24live

00:24:24Christianly

00:24:26and this implies

00:24:27necessarily

00:24:28give up

00:24:29to sin

00:24:29and with that

00:24:31give up

00:24:31to all that

00:24:32that leads us

00:24:33to sin

00:24:34because otherwise

00:24:36resignations

00:24:37which leads you

00:24:37to sin

00:24:38Well, you're toast.

00:24:39TRUE

00:24:40probably

00:24:41It's the internet

00:24:45very good

00:24:45a boy

00:24:46that

00:24:46because they were visible

00:24:48desire

00:24:48but suddenly

00:24:49started to come

00:24:50often

00:24:52and always

00:24:52It was the same

00:24:53sin

00:24:54pornography

00:24:56on the internet

00:24:57There was a problem

00:24:58with pornography

00:24:59but its source

00:25:00major

00:25:01well it was

00:25:02the internet

00:25:03So I told him

00:25:05Okay, let's see.

00:25:05nothing else

00:25:36You're not going out

00:25:37You're not going out

00:25:40because

00:25:40Because it's your passion

00:25:41dominant

00:25:42You have no strength

00:25:45against your passion

00:25:46dominant

00:25:47This is what

00:25:48we need to understand

00:25:49siblings

00:25:50We have no strength

00:25:51against what is

00:25:52our passion

00:25:53dominant

00:25:53you can see

00:25:55from this list

00:25:56that gave them

00:25:56lust

00:25:57avarice

00:25:57laziness

00:25:58gluttony

00:25:58envy

00:25:58pride

00:25:59gonna

00:26:00what are you saying

00:26:01no

00:26:01the truth

00:26:02envious

00:26:03well no

00:26:04lazy

00:26:05well no

00:26:06But don't move me.

00:26:08just a little bit

00:26:09because it exploded

00:26:09That's your problem.

00:26:13with anger

00:26:14There are areas

00:26:18that more or less

00:26:19we can handle them

00:26:20humanly

00:26:21but there are areas

00:26:23that we're not going to

00:26:24to be able to handle

00:26:25humanly

00:26:26it would be needed

00:26:28to do nothing

00:26:29it would be needed

00:26:30a miracle

00:26:30that God

00:26:32by infused grace

00:26:34will tear from your life

00:26:36that passion

00:26:37if he/she has done so

00:26:39in some people

00:26:40But that's not normal.

00:26:42that's not the way

00:26:44ordinary

00:26:44promotion

00:26:45towards the perfect life

00:26:47You have to stop

00:26:49that which is you

00:26:50jamming

00:26:51to the rich young man

00:26:52wool

00:26:54and us

00:26:56that

00:26:57What is it that's bothering you?

00:27:00stuck brother

00:27:01that has not allowed you

00:27:02take this step

00:27:04definitive

00:27:04living

00:27:05continuously

00:27:06in grace

00:27:08another example

00:27:12that them

00:27:13I mention

00:27:14is

00:27:16the example

00:27:17of Ananias and Sapphira

00:27:18They find it

00:27:19there in chapter 5

00:27:20the first 10 verses

00:27:22from the Acts of the Apostles

00:27:23there in this book

00:27:25from the Acts of the Apostles

00:27:26we are told

00:27:27to these two spouses

00:27:28Ananias and Sapphira

00:27:29They entered the Christian community

00:27:32they were baptized

00:27:33But they wanted to live.

00:27:35But they wanted to live a life of appearances.

00:27:36were

00:27:38They sold a piece of land

00:27:40in one thousand pesos

00:27:41I mean, they don't say how much.

00:27:43TRUE

00:27:43but

00:27:44Sometimes it's not very clear to us

00:27:46because of the way it's written

00:27:47this passage

00:27:48So I almost always put it like that.

00:27:50to understand what the problem was

00:27:51The problem is that

00:27:54They sell

00:27:55a piece of land

00:27:56in one thousand pesos

00:27:57They get into the bag

00:28:00100

00:28:01and then they go with the apostles

00:28:04and they tell them

00:28:04This is the price

00:28:06of the land

00:28:07You sold your land

00:28:09in 900 pesos

00:28:10Yeah

00:28:11they wanted to be like

00:28:15the other Christians

00:28:17because

00:28:17in chapter 4

00:28:19the final part

00:28:20They tell us

00:28:21of some

00:28:22that they had sold

00:28:23their lands

00:28:24and they had put

00:28:25all your money

00:28:26in favor

00:28:27of the church

00:28:28and then

00:28:30Pedro tells him

00:28:31Why do you want to deceive?

00:28:32to the spirit?

00:28:34Wasn't it yours?

00:28:35the land?

00:28:36Wasn't it yours?

00:28:37wool?

00:28:38Why are you coming?

00:28:39And you tell me

00:28:40that you sold it for 900

00:28:41and you stayed

00:28:42with 100?

00:28:44Do you want to come in?

00:28:45in front of others

00:28:46like a good Christian

00:28:48And you wanted to deceive

00:28:49to the spirit?

00:28:51and says

00:28:51at the moment

00:28:52You're going to die

00:28:52and at that moment

00:28:53dies

00:28:53and then

00:28:55the wife

00:28:56that was

00:28:56colluding with him

00:28:57the same lie

00:28:59and the same ending

00:29:00we want

00:29:03pretend

00:29:04siblings

00:29:05it can't be done

00:29:06pretend

00:29:07need

00:29:10make the decision

00:29:12to change

00:29:12because

00:29:15because our

00:29:16churches

00:29:16today they are full

00:29:17of people

00:29:20that is put

00:29:20they arrive like this

00:29:21the pieces

00:29:22marble

00:29:23nothing else

00:29:24that disguised

00:29:24of Jesus Christ

00:29:25No?

00:29:26to mass

00:29:26you say

00:29:29Look at Jesus Christ

00:29:29No way, man.

00:29:30It's a mask

00:29:31It comes lined

00:29:32nothing else

00:29:33inside

00:29:33It remains

00:29:34the same stone

00:29:35nothing has changed

00:29:36He doesn't want to change.

00:29:38He likes to follow

00:29:40doesn't want to become

00:29:43a masterpiece

00:29:44He doesn't want to end up looking good

00:29:46all the beauty

00:29:47that the artist

00:29:48can do it

00:29:49prefers to remain

00:29:50stone

00:29:52a stone

00:29:53report

00:29:54But that's true.

00:29:55We must come to mass

00:29:57we have to go in

00:29:57a group

00:29:58anything

00:29:59and then we get

00:30:01the uniform

00:30:02of Christian

00:30:02we're coming

00:30:04with our Bible

00:30:05we hung up

00:30:05our cross

00:30:06and well

00:30:08we come to mass

00:30:09we even confessed

00:30:10and we received communion

00:30:11But the truth is

00:30:12It's because you haven't decided.

00:30:13leave your life

00:30:15of sin

00:30:15and until you decide

00:30:18brother

00:30:20sister

00:30:21As I tell you

00:30:22are

00:30:23three blocks away

00:30:25of the parade

00:30:26They're not going to arrive

00:30:28have

00:30:32that leave

00:30:33of this

00:30:34decision

00:30:35I have decided

00:30:37Forsake my sin

00:30:39I have decided

00:30:41leave

00:30:41all that

00:30:42that it is

00:30:44preventing it

00:30:45I was telling them then

00:30:49This is the most decisive factor.

00:30:50of our entire lives

00:30:51It depends on this

00:30:52everything else

00:30:53if we don't overcome

00:30:56this

00:30:56We'll still be there.

00:30:59subjects

00:31:00to Satan

00:31:01all

00:31:03our life

00:31:05we will never arrive

00:31:08namely

00:31:08what is

00:31:09life

00:31:09in fullness

00:31:10we will never enjoy

00:31:12what God

00:31:12has thought

00:31:13for us

00:31:14because we are

00:31:15always stuck

00:31:16in sin

00:31:17Because that's where we are.

00:31:18held tightly

00:31:20Satan

00:31:20This requires

00:31:24on the one hand

00:31:24the purification

00:31:25of our will

00:31:26that is to say

00:31:27die to us

00:31:28same

00:31:29and prefer

00:31:30to Jesus

00:31:31and to God

00:31:31over

00:31:32all our

00:31:33things

00:31:34above all

00:31:34inclusive

00:31:35our own

00:31:36life

00:31:37That's not how it works

00:31:38indicated

00:31:39Jesus

00:31:40Matthew

00:31:4116

00:31:4224

00:31:4226

00:31:43Jesus

00:31:45so

00:31:45he said to his

00:31:46disciples

00:31:46if anyone

00:31:47wants to come

00:31:48in pursuit

00:31:48of me

00:31:49deny yourself

00:31:50same

00:31:50take up your cross

00:31:52and follow me

00:31:52because the one who

00:31:54wants to save his

00:31:55life will be lost

00:31:56but the one who

00:31:57lose your life

00:31:58because of me

00:31:59will find it

00:31:59Well, that's a good thing.

00:32:01a man will get

00:32:02if he wins the world

00:32:03whole

00:32:04but loses its

00:32:05soul

00:32:05or will there be a

00:32:07man in exchange

00:32:07of his soul

00:32:08we defend ourselves

00:32:12in this work

00:32:13of the spirit

00:32:14siblings

00:32:14we defend ourselves

00:32:15tremendously

00:32:16That's why I was telling them

00:32:17that this stage

00:32:18It's tough

00:32:19It's difficult

00:32:21to pass

00:32:22because it costs

00:32:23a stream

00:32:23die to yourself

00:32:27die to yourself

00:32:30and make the decision

00:32:32never to return

00:32:34to offend

00:32:34to the Lord

00:32:35Mister

00:32:36help me

00:32:38You know I am

00:32:39a sinner

00:32:52my sin

00:32:52you know

00:32:53my weakness

00:32:54you know

00:32:55that for years

00:32:56I have not managed

00:32:56eradicate it

00:32:57But Lord

00:32:58today

00:32:59today

00:33:00I'm not going to do it

00:33:01today

00:33:03I will not sin

00:33:04the decision

00:33:07most important

00:33:09because with that

00:33:10we destroy

00:33:11selfishness

00:33:12which is a

00:33:13from the sources

00:33:14that is

00:33:14continuously

00:33:15feeding

00:33:16our life

00:33:17I want to do

00:33:19I want to have

00:33:20I want to go

00:33:21I

00:33:22I

00:33:23and we please him

00:33:24to everything that the self

00:33:26want

00:33:26even if it is a sin

00:33:28It is enough that the self

00:33:30Raise your hand

00:33:31and say

00:33:31hey

00:33:32Why don't we do this?

00:33:33so that you

00:33:34you agree

00:33:35with your sin

00:33:36to do it

00:33:37We need to tell you

00:33:40well today

00:33:41no accounts

00:33:43with me

00:33:43You don't count today.

00:33:46with me

00:33:47today

00:33:47I have decided

00:33:49No

00:33:49go back

00:33:50to sin

00:33:51one second

00:33:54bastion

00:33:55in this area

00:33:56It is pride.

00:33:58and for that purpose

00:33:59it is necessary

00:34:00humiliate us

00:34:01to ourselves

00:34:02take

00:34:04last place

00:34:05as it is not needed

00:34:06Jesus

00:34:07it says in

00:34:08John 13

00:34:0914

00:34:1015

00:34:11Well, if I

00:34:13the Lord

00:34:13and the teacher

00:34:14I washed their feet

00:34:16you too

00:34:17They must wash their feet

00:34:18one another

00:34:19because I have given them

00:34:21example

00:34:21so that, just like me

00:34:23I've done it

00:34:23do it too

00:34:24you

00:34:25in Luke

00:34:2714

00:34:2811

00:34:28says

00:34:29because everyone who exalts himself

00:34:32he will be humiliated

00:34:33and he who humbles himself

00:34:34will be

00:34:35praised

00:34:36John the Baptist

00:34:39it said in

00:34:40John 3

00:34:4030

00:34:41it is necessary

00:34:43that he grows

00:34:44and that I

00:34:45decrease

00:34:46to the extent

00:34:48in which you

00:34:49you're going

00:34:51humiliating you

00:34:53to yourself

00:34:53to that extent

00:34:55you are destroying

00:34:57pride

00:34:58and you go

00:35:00subtracting

00:35:00greatly

00:35:01the possibilities

00:35:03to sin

00:35:04to seduce you

00:35:05But look

00:35:09again

00:35:09I insist

00:35:10How difficult!

00:35:10This is the stage

00:35:11humiliate us

00:35:13ourselves

00:35:14we do not allow

00:35:17nor that he humiliates us

00:35:17the other

00:35:18because we are already on it

00:35:19baring their claws

00:35:20humiliate us

00:35:22ourselves

00:35:24if we want

00:35:26progress

00:35:27in the way

00:35:27of purification

00:35:28We must begin

00:35:30to look

00:35:30the last places

00:35:32the tasks

00:35:33more humble

00:35:34that nobody wants

00:35:34search at all times

00:35:37to go unnoticed

00:35:39look for

00:35:40do nothing to us

00:35:41the pride

00:35:44they fix

00:35:45who

00:35:46I

00:35:47I

00:35:48We're always there.

00:35:49that people

00:35:49see us

00:35:50that he applauds us

00:35:51that we get to know each other

00:35:52that we congratulate

00:35:54man

00:35:54That's outrageous!

00:35:55That's tremendous!

00:35:56You did great!

00:35:57sometimes

00:35:59we even got settled

00:36:01in things

00:36:01that we haven't even done

00:36:03but due to some mistake

00:36:04Confusion ensued

00:36:05and you appear

00:36:06as

00:36:06the author

00:36:07and you never say

00:36:09No, I didn't do it.

00:36:10no

00:36:12applaud me

00:36:13who wants to walk

00:36:17towards the next stage

00:36:19needs to humiliate himself

00:36:21in addition

00:36:21needs

00:36:24take

00:36:25the last places

00:36:26and do the chores

00:36:27that no one

00:36:30He likes to do

00:36:31there at the seminar

00:36:34There was one thing

00:36:36that nobody

00:36:37I never wanted to do it

00:36:38wash the bathrooms

00:36:40I don't think anyone

00:36:41she likes

00:36:41nowadays

00:36:42also true

00:36:43We almost always pay

00:36:45so they can wash us

00:36:46the bathrooms

00:36:47well then

00:36:49That had to be done

00:36:52And who's going to do it?

00:36:54Well, I don't.

00:36:57They set the schedules.

00:37:02for

00:37:02we had

00:37:05from time to time

00:37:06a prayer vigil

00:37:25three and four

00:37:26Nobody catches him

00:37:27because?

00:37:28because it is

00:37:29difficult

00:37:29because we have to

00:37:32Overcoming your dream

00:37:34because you have to get up

00:37:35and still

00:37:36the one at two

00:37:43two or three more

00:37:44a few more hours

00:37:45but the one at four

00:37:46buddy, you already left

00:37:48From there you'll continue

00:37:49because at six

00:37:51We had to be fifteen

00:37:52That's all for the rest

00:37:53of the lutes

00:37:54You have to have

00:37:56bathed

00:37:57arranged

00:37:57all

00:37:58Then you see there

00:38:01you say wow

00:38:01And nobody signed up here.

00:38:03In other words, nobody wants to.

00:38:05do the jobs

00:38:06more difficult

00:38:07Nobody wants to do it

00:38:07the humblest things

00:38:09Nobody wants to do it

00:38:10nothing that he doesn't know

00:38:11make life easier

00:38:12And if we don't humble ourselves

00:38:15and we don't decrease

00:38:16to ourselves

00:38:17We will not allow

00:38:18that God

00:38:19grow in us

00:38:20that the image

00:38:21of Jesus

00:38:22shine

00:38:23on our face

00:38:24in our life

00:38:25in our actions

00:38:26which is what nobody

00:38:29wants to do

00:38:30Well, I

00:38:30I'm going to do it

00:38:31What are the hours?

00:38:34They are the most difficult

00:38:35well these

00:38:35I'm going to take them

00:38:36which is what

00:38:38I find it difficult

00:38:39a lot of work

00:38:40do

00:38:41I'm going to do that

00:38:42I

00:38:42because we need

00:38:46beat

00:38:47this sin

00:38:48that is inside

00:38:49of us

00:38:50we need to cooperate

00:38:51with God

00:38:52helping him

00:38:53with a little

00:38:55exercise

00:38:56both on the line

00:38:57of selfishness

00:38:58as on the line

00:38:59of pride

00:39:00and pride

00:39:01He doesn't die

00:39:02until you humiliate yourself

00:39:03completely

00:39:03That's why we need

00:39:07exercise

00:39:08It is also

00:39:11extremely important

00:39:12at this stage

00:39:12the sacrament

00:39:15of reconciliation

00:39:16well, not only

00:39:19It humiliates us

00:39:20It's always humiliating

00:39:22possible to say

00:39:23to another person

00:39:24well the class

00:39:25cockroach

00:39:26that we are

00:39:26TRUE

00:39:26in fact

00:39:28well, a lot of people

00:39:29is around

00:39:30changing

00:39:32because

00:39:32wow

00:39:32I'm going to tell him

00:39:33to the father

00:39:33the same thing again

00:39:34We feel sorry for them.

00:39:37it isn't true

00:39:38if desired

00:39:42progress

00:39:43in life

00:39:43spiritual

00:39:44siblings

00:39:44to the extent

00:39:45of what is possible

00:39:46there is no need to

00:39:47change

00:39:48of confessor

00:39:48always the same

00:39:50that I know

00:39:52the class

00:39:53cockroach

00:39:53that you are

00:39:54so that I can help you

00:39:56to leave

00:39:57of the hole

00:39:57and of course

00:39:59which of course

00:40:00that need to be looked for

00:40:00a good

00:40:01confessor

00:40:02a confessor

00:40:04what does it tell you?

00:40:04Oh my daughter

00:40:05Say a prayer to a priest

00:40:06our

00:40:06and a Hail Mary

00:40:07forget it

00:40:08That one won't help you.

00:40:08not at all

00:40:09Imagine a doctor

00:40:13that you arrive

00:40:14with cancer

00:40:15and tells him

00:40:15Oh my son

00:40:16Take an aspirin

00:40:17You're going to die

00:40:20without remedy

00:40:26You're going to die

00:40:27It's not that the father

00:40:30He is very strict.

00:40:31and quite demanding

00:40:31and this and that

00:40:32Well, it's because of medicine.

00:40:35many times

00:40:37We don't like it

00:40:38but we want

00:40:40light

00:40:42a little father

00:40:43good vibes

00:40:44that he always treats us well

00:40:45Oh my life

00:40:46Oh my little boy

00:40:47how you

00:40:47No way, man.

00:40:48Give it your all

00:40:49Don't worry

00:40:50There you go

00:40:51But where to, Father?

00:40:53I'm taking it there.

00:40:55But where to?

00:40:56I don't wear it

00:41:00nowhere

00:41:01because

00:41:01every week

00:41:02I come with the same

00:41:03problem

00:41:04Where do I take her?

00:41:06as I called him

00:41:08this boy

00:41:08let's see

00:41:08Let's clarify

00:41:11this roll

00:41:11you want to progress

00:41:13in the spiritual life

00:41:14Or do you want to follow?

00:41:16confessing

00:41:17your whole life

00:41:17You have to decide.

00:41:20That's why the first part

00:41:21It is important

00:41:22No

00:41:22I don't know if I want to go out.

00:41:24Ah, very good.

00:41:25of penance

00:41:26You're canceling tomorrow.

00:41:27the cable

00:41:27Just let me go

00:41:31with another parent

00:41:31to ask for another opinion

00:41:32probably

00:41:33this

00:41:34That's how we do it

00:41:36with the doctor

00:41:36not when he tells us

00:41:37Hey, do you know?

00:41:38who has cancer

00:41:39No, it can't be.

00:41:40I can't have cancer

00:41:41the first stage

00:41:42of negation

00:41:42of the disease

00:41:43No

00:41:43no no no

00:41:44And there you are

00:41:45like with 4 or 5

00:41:46oncologists

00:41:47until you say

00:41:48It doesn't seem like I have cancer.

00:41:49if we don't receive

00:41:55of the confessor

00:41:56direction and help

00:41:58siblings

00:41:59They're in the pot

00:42:01in the pot

00:42:04They will not progress

00:42:06because the confessor

00:42:08He has to help you

00:42:09to two things

00:42:11essentially

00:42:11how we finished

00:42:12to say right now

00:42:13first

00:42:14to make the decision

00:42:16Do you want to or not?

00:42:17No, I don't want to.

00:42:19very good

00:42:20And now what do I have to do?

00:42:21Oh, well now you have to do

00:42:22as follows

00:42:23Let's begin

00:42:26a job

00:42:27so that God

00:42:28can enter

00:42:29completely

00:42:30to your life

00:42:31and finish this work

00:42:32who wants

00:42:34end

00:42:34some day

00:42:35in your heart

00:42:36There is a third element

00:42:39which is closely related

00:42:40with all this

00:42:41that we just said

00:42:42what is

00:42:43get away

00:42:44of the occasions

00:42:44of sin

00:42:45I was just saying that

00:42:46And in this, then

00:42:49we need to put

00:42:51restrictions

00:42:52to everything that leads us

00:42:54to sin

00:42:54people

00:42:56places

00:42:57things

00:42:58It's so important

00:43:00this topic

00:43:01in our life

00:43:01siblings

00:43:02that Saint Matthew

00:43:03He mentions it

00:43:04twice

00:43:05in his gospel

00:43:06Jesus

00:43:08on two occasions

00:43:10talk about this topic

00:43:11one of them

00:43:13He does it

00:43:14in chapter 5

00:43:15verses 29 and 30

00:43:17Matthew's

00:43:18always the two

00:43:19and the other

00:45:02worse

00:45:03Where are you going?

00:45:05How are you following him?

00:45:06and every time I go

00:45:39more difficult

00:45:41people

00:45:42that we have to let go

00:45:45places

00:45:55this topic

00:45:55But Jesus says

00:45:58You better

00:45:59enter the kingdom

00:46:01from the heavens

00:46:02without Philemon

00:46:02that the two

00:46:13the parable

00:46:14TRUE?

00:46:17You better

00:46:23that you cut yourself

00:46:25a hand

00:46:27suffering

00:46:28how difficult it can be

00:46:30for one person

00:46:50recently

00:46:52that they had done to him

00:46:54a good offer

00:46:55in their work

00:46:56to win

00:46:58almost double

00:46:59of what he was earning

00:47:01but

00:47:03in that job

00:47:04because I was going to have

00:47:05that travel a lot

00:47:06I was going to have

00:47:08that neglect

00:47:08to his family

00:47:09I wouldn't be able to anymore

00:47:10It's people who come

00:47:11practically

00:47:12every day

00:47:12to mass

00:47:13of communion

00:47:14well daily

00:47:26No

00:47:27It is the most valuable thing

00:47:28that I have

00:47:28So he told them

00:47:30no

00:47:31Of course, his boss

00:47:33when he told her

00:47:39those who set out

00:47:40You were the chosen one

00:47:42and you don't want to

00:47:43And you can imagine

00:47:46the other colleagues

00:47:47so

00:47:48finding out

00:47:49of this matter

00:47:50They also called him

00:48:03bad reviews

00:48:08that lead us

00:48:09to destroy our lives

00:48:38herein

00:48:39area

00:48:40the penance

00:48:42the penance

00:48:45and mortification

00:48:46of our senses

00:48:48It's going to be

00:48:50which will help

00:48:51that we

00:48:52we can

00:48:53leave

00:48:54absolutely

00:48:55all

00:48:56again

00:48:59Herein lies the difficulty

00:49:00TRUE?

00:49:00What I was saying a while ago

00:49:01of penance

00:49:02of the confessor

00:49:2613, 14 years old

00:49:33normal

00:49:33I mean

00:49:34of the faults

00:49:35normal

00:49:3614 years old

00:49:38nothing

00:49:39in a sense

00:49:40strict

00:49:41serious

00:49:43I saw that he had

00:49:44provision

00:49:45that wanted to move forward

00:49:46a bit

00:49:46I told him

00:49:47of penance

00:49:49Are you going to pray?

00:50:04to carry in prayer

00:50:04A rosary?

00:50:05half an hour

00:50:06And that is your penance.

00:50:08so that?

00:50:10walking

00:50:11in life

00:50:11of faith

00:50:12so you can

00:50:13increase

00:50:13your life

00:50:14prayer

00:50:14all

00:50:17because?

00:50:18because normally

00:50:19Well, because of that type.

00:50:20I mean

00:50:20She understands

00:50:21clearly

00:50:23who has not sinned

00:50:24seriously

00:50:25I came to do

00:50:25a reconciliation

00:50:26well, of those that

00:50:28normally

00:50:28we must be

00:50:29doing each

00:50:30three or four months

00:50:31if we have not sinned

00:50:32seriously

00:50:32then suddenly

00:50:34I tell him a rosary

00:50:35when normally

00:50:37They tell him that a father

00:50:38our

00:50:38a Hail Mary

00:50:39because there are some

00:50:41dear parents who already

00:50:41They don't even give you penance

00:50:43They don't ask you

00:50:46the act

00:50:47of contrition

00:50:47so that you can express

00:50:48your pain

00:50:49TRUE?

00:50:49of having sinned

00:50:50and they don't give you anything

00:50:51penance

00:50:52Imagine that you

00:50:54You go to the doctor

00:50:54and they tell you

00:50:56Oh, that's great!

00:50:57this

00:50:57Well then

00:50:58and how is it

00:50:59the family

00:51:00Well, that's fine.

00:51:00and you start chatting

00:51:01of everything

00:51:02and says

00:51:02I hope things go well for you.

00:51:03Oh Carlitos

00:51:06I hope things go well for me.

00:51:09It's not going to give me

00:51:10a medicine

00:51:12There you go

00:51:13See how serious it is

00:51:18This situation exists

00:51:19That's why it's difficult

00:51:23advance

00:51:23between us

00:51:24we don't want

00:51:24Don't put it on.

00:51:25difficult

00:51:25because that's how we've come

00:51:26being used to

00:51:28That's why there is no holiness

00:51:29in the church

00:51:30we have always

00:51:32used to

00:51:32tell us

00:51:33Our Father

00:51:33a Hail Mary

00:51:34and that's it

00:51:35And if they give it to you

00:51:35more than one Hail Mary

00:51:36Our Father

00:51:37So what did you do?

00:51:38TRUE?

00:51:44a penance

00:51:45of really

00:51:45because of a mortal sin

00:51:46Well, that's when I'd have a heart attack.

00:56:37all this

00:56:38goes

00:56:39bringing

00:56:39serious

00:56:40damages

00:56:40to our

00:56:41soul

00:56:41without further ado

00:56:43I wrote to myself today

00:56:47She is a person

00:56:48which is even

00:57:42because we left

00:57:43enter our

00:57:44houses

00:57:45dirt

00:57:46trash

00:57:47What is it that

00:57:49Are you watching?

00:57:50No, that's not it.

00:57:50out

00:57:51a few years ago

00:57:53I have been

00:57:54visiting

00:57:55at home

00:57:55from some cousins

00:57:56in Cuernavaca

00:57:57and

00:57:59they put there

00:58:00a game

00:58:01I was working

00:58:02on my computer

00:58:03and suddenly

00:58:04well

00:58:04I was distracted

00:58:05because of the noise

00:58:06of the bullets

00:58:07It was a game

00:58:08of war

00:58:08but truly

00:58:11violent

00:58:12And I say

00:58:13violent

00:58:13because

00:58:14It was super real

00:58:16I mean

00:58:18when they shot him

00:58:18to a person

00:58:19because it looked

00:58:21that's where it hit him

00:58:22the bullet

00:58:23and it got stained

00:58:24of blood

00:58:25I remember

00:58:27of a scene

00:58:27where

00:58:27They shoot him

00:58:29some soldiers

00:58:29This is happening

00:58:30In a place

00:58:30where there is snow

00:58:31and then

00:58:32when it happens

00:58:33again

00:58:34the soldier

00:58:34that already killed

00:58:35to those others

00:58:36well it is

00:58:37all the ice

00:58:38all the snow

00:58:39stained

00:58:40of blood

00:58:41and still

00:58:44they were in the middle of this

00:58:45when it arrives

00:58:46my aunt

00:58:46my cousin

00:58:48My cousin arrives

00:58:49and no

00:58:51had brought it

00:58:52the older brother

00:58:52and I was watching it

00:58:53his little brother

00:58:5513 years old

00:58:5714 years old

00:58:58no

00:59:00He put it on

00:59:00I already told you

00:59:01that this type

00:59:02of movies

00:59:02They cannot enter

00:59:03here at home

00:59:03because

00:59:04Well

00:59:05a scandal erupted

00:59:06You cannot enter

00:59:08with this type

00:59:09games

00:59:10You cannot enter

00:59:10with this type

00:59:11of videos

00:59:12because they make you

00:59:14damage

00:59:15How many of us

00:59:18We have movies

00:59:19of saints

00:59:19uplifting films

00:59:20How many of us

00:59:22we enjoyed

00:59:23a movie

00:59:25edifying

00:59:26we have promoted

00:59:28searching

00:59:29that this

00:59:29develop

00:59:30some more

00:59:31in the community

00:59:31here at the bookstore

00:59:33to have this video store

00:59:34of movies

00:59:35edifying

00:59:36We already have

00:59:36I don't know

00:59:3850

00:59:3960

00:59:40how many

00:59:40have

00:59:40many

00:59:41150

00:59:43movies

00:59:45for 3 years

00:59:49because one per week

00:59:50What are you listening to?

00:59:57what are you taking about?

00:59:59And what do you see?

01:00:00fill your life

01:00:04of God

01:00:05of things

01:00:06nobles

01:00:06edifying

01:00:08listen to music

01:00:09that pacifies

01:00:10your soul

01:00:11have images

01:00:14that help

01:00:14to calm down

01:00:15your inner self

01:00:16have conversations

01:00:18Don't let them distract you

01:00:20so much

01:00:20and that at the same time

01:00:21They'll open up for you.

01:00:23the path

01:00:23so that God

01:00:24can enter

01:00:25in your heart

01:00:26and lastly

01:00:29the latest recommendation

01:00:30the last element

01:00:31that I propose

01:00:32It is fasting

01:00:33and prayer

01:00:34which are

01:00:36the tools

01:00:38fundamentals

01:00:40at this stage

01:00:42certainly

01:01:16that they will take him

01:01:17constantly

01:01:34of your life

01:01:35the passions

01:01:37dominant

01:01:37that's why

01:01:39Jesus

01:01:40I was telling them

01:01:41on a difficult day

01:01:42to his apostles

01:01:43on the day

01:01:43in which they were going

01:01:45to arrest

01:01:46and was about to begin

01:01:47his passion

01:01:47Matthew 26

01:01:4941

01:01:50Watch and pray

01:01:52so that they don't fall

01:01:54in temptation

01:01:55if there is no prayer

01:01:57And if there is no fasting

01:01:58always

01:01:59Write it down

01:02:01record it

01:02:07always

01:02:08always

01:02:11will be subject

01:02:14to sin

01:02:15always

01:02:16There's no way

01:02:19to eradicate

01:02:20sin

01:02:21of our life

01:02:22mortal sin

01:02:24There's no way

01:02:25to eradicate it

01:02:26if we don't do

01:02:27penance

01:02:28if we are not

01:02:29willing

01:02:30to mortify

01:02:31our senses

01:02:32because that's where it is

01:02:33where is

01:02:34the center

01:02:35lust

01:02:36laziness

01:02:40is the center

01:02:41of the battle

01:02:42and all these sins

01:02:43That's why they're called

01:02:44capital

01:11:18the work that has begun

01:11:19They can assure you of that.

01:11:23nothing more than

01:11:23because grace

01:11:25It hasn't entered yet.

01:11:26where I had to go
