May 18, 2026, Monday of the Seventh Week of Easter, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,

In a passage of the Gospel, John 16:29-33, that we read today, the feast of Pope St. John I, the disciples said to Jesus, “We believe that you came from God.”

Christ the Lord answered them,

"Do you believe now?
Behold, the hour is coming and has arrived
when each of you will be scattered to his own home
and you will leave me alone.
But I am not alone, because the Father is with me."

Sadly, we notice that our faith is weak — and that’s our problem. We leave Jesus alone and mostly seek wordy solutions.

The Lord reveals then,

“I have told you this so that you might have peace in me.
In the world, you will have trouble,
but take courage, I have conquered the world.”

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!
