St. John Mary Vianney, Priest (Memorial)
First Reading:
Psalm:
Gospel:
Numbers 20:1-13
Psalm 95:1-2, 6-9
Matthew 16:13-23

Stop entertaining those vain fears. Remember it is not feeling which constitutes guilt but the consent to such feelings. Only the free will is capable of good or evil. But when the will sighs under the trial of the tempter and does not will what is presented to it, there is not only no fault but there is virtue.

-- Saint Pio of Pietrelcina
