Jesus said to the crowd: "They will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons, and they will have you led before kings and governors because of my name. It will lead to your giving testimony. Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand, for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute. You will even be handed over by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will put some of you to death. You will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed. By your perseverance you will secure your lives." -Luke 21:12-19

We are at war and have been for eons. Throughout time, the enemy remained hidden, and a hidden enemy is a dangerous enemy. But now we are blessed that the Lord has allowed the enemy to be emboldened to raise his head for all to see. Once exposed, our weapons can be trained on our adversary, and our most effective weapon is prayer. Do not fear harm to the body, career, or social standing. Trust in the Lord, remain faithful, stay strong in prayer, live a moral life according to God’s commandments, and secure the ultimate Victory of eternal life with the Most Holy Trinity.

Blessed Denis of the Nativity, pray for us.
