A PRAYER TO WALK HUMBLY THROUGH LENT: Father, In Micah 6:8, You say, “O people, the LORD has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.” Today we choose to walk humbly with You.

God of goodness and mercy, hear my prayer as I begin this Lenten journey with you. Let me be honest with myself as I look into my heart and soul, noticing the times I turn away from you. Guide me as I humbly seek to repent and return to your love. May humility guide my efforts to be reconciled with you and live forever in your abundant grace. Transform me this Lent, heavenly Father. Give me the strength to commit myself to grow closer to you each day. Amen 🙏🏽
LENTEN FAST AND ABSTINENCE (Lenten Fast and Abstinence regulations from the USCCB): Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are obligatory days of fasting and abstinence for Catholics. In addition, Fridays during Lent are obligatory days of abstinence.
For members of the Latin Catholic Church, the norms on fasting are obligatory from age 18 until age 59. When fasting, a person is permitted to eat one full meal, as well as two smaller meals that together are not equal to a full meal. The norms concerning abstinence from meat are binding upon members of the Latin Catholic Church from age 14 onwards
Members of the Eastern Catholic Churches are to observe the particular law of their own sui iuris Church. If possible, the fast on Good Friday is continued until the Easter Vigil (on Holy Saturday night) as the “paschal fast” to honor the suffering and death of the Lord Jesus, and to prepare ourselves to share more fully and to celebrate more readily His Resurrection. 🙏🏽

Through the intercession of our Blessed Mother Mary and these holy saints, we humbly pray for the grace of divine guidance, the strength to respond to God’s will, and protection for expectant mothers.
Saint Gabriel the Archangel and Saint Catherine of Sweden ~ Pray for us. 🙏🏽
Saint(s) of the Day with Daily Reflections | March 24th | https://dailyreflectionswithphilomena.com/
(Direct link to detailed history of the lives of the Saints | https://dailyreflectionswithphilomena.com/category/saints-of-the-day/ )
SAINT GABRIEL THE ARCHANGEL: “I am Gabriel, who stand before God.” (Luke 1:19) Saint Gabriel, whose name means “God’s Strength,” is one of the seven archangels who stand in the presence of God. He is a divine messenger, appearing in sacred scripture as the herald of God’s greatest revelations. He was sent to the Prophet Daniel to explain visions of the future (Daniel 8:16; 9:21), to Zechariah to announce the birth of John the Baptist (Luke 1:11-20), and most significantly, to the Blessed Virgin Mary to proclaim the Incarnation of Christ (Luke 1:26-38).
Originally, Saint Gabriel’s feast was celebrated on March 24, the day before the Annunciation, highlighting his role as the Angel of the Incarnation. However, in 1969, the Church combined his feast with those of Saints Michael and Raphael on September 29. Nonetheless, his unique mission as the heavenly messenger remains central to the mystery of our salvation.
Gabriel’s name reflects his role in revealing God’s power and strengthening those chosen for divine missions. Christian tradition holds that he also comforted Christ in Gethsemane and may have been the angel who invited the shepherds to adore the newborn Savior. He is invoked as the patron of messengers, communications, diplomats, and postal workers, reflecting his role in bringing divine messages to humanity.
PRAYER: Archangel Gabriel, divine messenger of God’s plan, strengthen us to hear and respond to His call. May we, like Mary, embrace His will with faith and humility. Guide those who spread the Gospel and protect those who seek God’s wisdom. Amen. 🙏
SAINT CATHERINE OF SWEDEN, VIRGIN: Saint Catherine of Sweden (1331–1381) was the daughter of Saint Bridget of Sweden, inheriting her mother’s deep devotion to Christ. From a young age, she demonstrated a strong desire for holiness and chose a life of purity, convincing her husband, Eggart von Kürnen, to live in a chaste marriage dedicated to prayer and charity.
Following her husband’s death, she joined her mother in Rome, supporting her in founding the Bridgettine Order. She lived a life of mortification, penance, and service to the poor, eventually becoming the abbess of the Bridgettine convent in Sweden. She worked tirelessly to secure the canonization of her mother, traveling to Rome to advocate for her cause.
Saint Catherine was a woman of deep contemplation, offering her life as a model of obedience, humility, and faith. She wrote a devotional work, Consolation of the Soul, encouraging others to seek Christ amid suffering. She is the patroness against abortions and miscarriages, interceding for mothers and unborn children.
PRAYER: Lord God, You filled Saint Catherine of Sweden with a burning love for You and a heart devoted to purity and prayer. Through her intercession, bless expectant mothers and grant strength to those who suffer the loss of a child. Help us imitate her virtue and seek Your will in all things. Amen. 🙏
May the lives of these Holy Saints inspire us to to trust in God’s plan, listen to His voice, and respond with unwavering faith. 🙏🏽
SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS:
Bible Readings for today’s Holy Mass, Monday of the Third Week of Lent | USCCB | https://bible.usccb.org/daily-bible-reading
Today’s Bible Readings: Third Week of Lent | Monday, March 24, 2025
*Reading 1: 2 Kings 5:1-15ab
*Responsorial Psalm, Psalm 42:2, 3; 43:3, 4
*Gospel: Luke 4:24-30
Gospel Reading ~ Luke 4:24-30
“No prophet is accepted in his own native place; Like Elijah and Elisha, Jesus was sent not only to the Jews”
“Jesus said to the people in the synagogue at Nazareth: “Amen, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own native place. Indeed, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah when the sky was closed for three and a half years and a severe famine spread over the entire land. It was to none of these that Elijah was sent, but only to a widow in Zarephath in the land of Sidon. Again, there were many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet; yet not one of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.” When the people in the synagogue heard this, they were all filled with fury. They rose up, drove him out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town had been built, to hurl him down headlong. But he passed through the midst of them and went away.”
In today’s Gospel reading, Jesus was rejected in His own hometown of Nazareth, as the people there refused to believe in what the Lord had said and proclaimed, simply because they judged Him and thought that they knew Who He truly was, the Son of a lowly village carpenter, that is His foster-father St. Joseph. The people of Nazareth hardened their hearts and minds against the Lord and rejected Him, in contrast to how the attitude of Naaman, the Syrian general had been. This was highlighted by the Lord Himself, Who said that prophets were never respected and honoured in their own lands, and gave the example of Naaman himself, who believed in God and was healed by the prophet Elisha, while so many others in the land of Israel refused to believe in Elisha and even persecuted the man of God. The people of Nazareth were enraged at Jesus because of the message that He preached. They were angry because the words of Jesus challenged their somewhat narrow view of God and what God was about. Jesus identified Himself with two prophets who ministered not just within Israel but far beyond Israel – Elijah in Sidon, and Elisha in Syria. Jesus was revealing a God who was just as concerned about the sick and suffering outside of Israel as the sick and suffering within Israel. He proclaimed a God who welcomes all sorts, sinners and tax collectors, people from outside Israel, even from Israel’s traditional enemies, such as the Syrians. Jesus was showing the people of Nazareth that God’s horizons were much wider than they had realized. They didn’t like their image of God being challenged and that is why they rejected Jesus, and would have killed him if they could have. Jesus will always challenge our image of God, because he knows God more deeply than we do. The God of Jesus is a big God, with a big heart, a wide horizon, a generous purpose for our lives. Our vision of God can sometimes be too restricted. We need to keep on being exposed to Jesus’ vision of God. That is one of the reasons why we need to keep reading, reflecting upon and praying the Gospels that have been entrusted to us by the evangelists. It is above all in the Gospels that we meet the living and true God, whom Jesus reveals by His words, His deeds, His death and His resurrection. Our calling today is to allow Jesus to shape our image of God, to rejoice, rather than to be angry at the generous and expansive God that Jesus reveals.
Reflecting on today’s Gospel, Jesus reminds the people of Nazareth that God’s grace is not confined to one group or nation. He recalls the stories of Elijah and Elisha, showing how God extended His blessings beyond Israel to a widow in Sidon and Naaman, a Syrian. These words angered the crowd because they challenged their sense of entitlement to God’s favor. Instead of embracing the truth, they reacted with rejection and violence, trying to drive Jesus out of their town. This moment foreshadows His ultimate rejection and suffering on the cross. This passage challenges us to examine our own hearts. Do we sometimes feel that God’s blessings should be reserved for certain people while excluding others? Are we willing to accept God’s grace in unexpected ways and through unexpected people? The people of Nazareth missed the opportunity to receive Jesus’ teachings because they could not accept that God’s love extends beyond their own community. We, too, must be careful not to limit God’s work in our lives by our own biases and expectations.
Our first reading today from the Book of Kings of Israel and Judah, details the story of how Naaman, a great and respected general of the Kingdom of Aram-Damascus, was afflicted with the terrible leprosy disease that was not yet easily curable at that time. That disease made one to be shunned and rejected from the community, and that must have been a really terrible blow for such a high-ranking and well-respected man. Then, Naaman came to the land of Israel hearing that there was a prophet there, the prophet Elisha, who was renowned for his many miracles and good works in ministering to the Israelites, showing God’s power and miracles to them. Naaman went to Elisha with the hope that the man of God could heal him from his conditions. Therefore, Elisha told Naaman to go and bathe in the River Jordan seven times and then he would be healed from his leprosy. Naaman became angry, expecting that the man of God should have come to him and perform his miracles to him in person, and not to ask him to do such trivial tasks, even arguing that there were better rivers in his own land. This was where Naaman’s servant reminded him that such a task was not really difficult to do, and if Naaman really wanted to be healed, then he should have just listened to Elisha and do as he was asked to do. We heard how Naaman obeyed eventually and was therefore healed from his afflictions, and was restored to good health through his obedience and faith in God. Our first reading today reminds us of how the Lord loved all of His people, including even the people who did not belong to the nation of Israel. The Aramaeans were enemies of the Israelites for much of their existence, and yet, God showed His mercy, love and healing for one of their most renowned generals. Naaman was also a representation of all of us, who are sinners and unworthy of God, and yet, through His most wonderful and generous mercy, love and compassion, Naaman was healed and therefore in the same way, all of us can and will be healed as well, as long as we allow ourselves to be healed by the Lord, healed from the taint and corruption of our many sins and wickedness, which have caused us to be separated from God and His love. The leprosy mentioned in our reading today is a representation of our sins, which are also akin to the disease in how they afflict us. Unlike leprosy, which can ultimately still be cured by earthly means, only the Lord alone can heal us from our sins, by His forgiveness and mercy. Through God’s forgiveness and grace, we will once again be in His favour, reconciled to Him, while having those sins cleared and forgiven from us. We will therefore no longer suffer the consequences of those sins which we have committed, and we will once again be filled with God’s grace, and reassured of His salvation and eternal life. All these can only happen if we allow ourselves and are open to the mercy and kindness of God that He has shown to all of us, just as He has shown it to Naaman who listened to Him and obeyed His commands through the prophet Elisha.
Reflecting on the story of Naaman, the Syrian commander in our first reading, highlights the power of humility and obedience. Despite his initial pride and reluctance, Naaman ultimately followed Elisha’s simple instruction to wash in the Jordan River, and he was healed of his leprosy. His story reminds us that God’s ways are not always what we expect. Often, we seek dramatic miracles or complex solutions, but God works in simple and humble ways. Just as Naaman had to set aside his pride to receive healing, we, too, must open our hearts to God’s guidance, even when it challenges our expectations. Naaman’s story also illustrates that God’s mercy is available to all people, not just to Israel. His healing serves as a prefiguration of the universal salvation that Christ offers. Like Naaman, we must trust in God’s word, even when it requires humility and surrender.
In the Responsorial Psalm, the psalmist expresses deep longing for God, comparing it to a deer thirsting for running water. This imagery speaks to the soul’s natural desire for God. Just as Naaman sought healing, we, too, seek the presence of the living God. This Lent, let us cultivate this thirst and draw closer to Him through prayer, repentance, and trust in His plan. Are we open to receiving God’s grace in unexpected ways? Do we reject certain people or ideas because they challenge our expectations? Are we willing to humble ourselves like Naaman and trust in God’s ways? As we continue our Lenten journey, let us seek God with open hearts, embracing His will even when it surprises us. May we remain steadfast in faith, trusting in His plans and welcoming His grace with humility.
Heavenly Father, open our hearts to Your boundless love. Help us to overcome our pride and accept Your grace in whatever way You choose to give it. Teach us to trust in Your wisdom, even when it challenges our understanding. May we never reject Your truth, but embrace it with faith and humility. Amen. 🙏🏽
As we reflect on the words of the Sacred Scriptures today, we are reminded of several very important things that we must heed as we continue to progress through this time and season of Lent, called to repentance from our many sins and wickedness, and reminded to return to the Lord, our most loving God, Who alone can heal us from our fallen state, our troubled and corrupted beings, because of the corruption and the wickedness caused by our many sins. Through the story of the healing of Naaman the Syrian from the Old Testament to the story of how the Lord Jesus was rejected in His own hometown of Nazareth in the Gospels, we are all reminded that we should put our trust in the Lord and not in the ways of the world, many of which may lead us astray and down the wrong path in life. We are all called to repent from our sins, to be open-minded and exclude from our hearts and minds all the taints of pride and ego, all the things that have often prevented us from returning to God and being reconciled with Him. It was our ego, just as Naaman had once experienced, that kept us away from being healed and made whole again by God, which in Naaman’s case was to be healed from his leprosy. And we all must know and realise that sin is just like leprosy, a corruption that attacks not just our body but worse still, the soul and our whole being. We are called to emulate the Holy men and women, and all the Saints, particularly the Saints we celebrate, Saint Gabriel the Archangel and Saint Catherine of Sweden, Virgin. Let us all make good use of the opportunities given to us especially during this time of Lent that we may find our path towards God and turn away from all of our past transgressions and wickedness, embracing instead the path of righteousness and virtue in life. May God in His infinite grace and mercy, grant us His grace and be with us always and may He continue to empower us all to live ever more faithfully as His disciples and followers, doing the best we can to proclaim His glory and to serve Him most faithfully at all times. May He bless us and strengthen us that we may continue to persevere in faith and remain firm in our commitments to Him, now and always. Amen🙏
DEVOTION OF THE MONTH OF MARCH | MONTH OF ST. JOSEPH: The month of March is dedicated to St. Joseph, the foster father of Jesus Christ. “His was the title of father of the Son of God, because he was the Spouse of Mary, ever Virgin. He was our Lord’s father, because Jesus ever yielded to him the obedience of a son. He was our Lord’s father, because to him were entrusted, and by him were faithfully fulfilled, the duties of a father, in protecting Him, giving Him a home, sustaining and rearing Him, and providing Him with a trade”. “This patronage must be invoked as ever necessary for the Church, not only as a defense against all dangers, but also, and indeed primarily, as an impetus for her renewed commitment to evangelization in the world and to re-evangelization,” wrote St. John Paul II in Redemptoris Custos (Guardian of the Redeemer). St. John Paul II further said, “Because St. Joseph is the protector of the Church, he is the guardian of the Eucharist and the Christian family. Therefore, we must turn to St. Joseph today to ward off attacks upon the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist and upon the family. We must plead with St. Joseph to guard the Eucharistic Lord and the Christian family during this time of peril.”
As the weeks of Lent progress let us not be tired of doing our good works and penance, but continue with the enthusiasm of the catechumens on their way to Easter and Baptism. May our Lenten observance be a joyful journey and not a forced march. 🙏🏽

PRAYER INTENTIONS: Lord Jesus, You came to proclaim the Good News to all, yet You were rejected by those who knew You best. In today’s Gospel, You remind us that God’s grace extends beyond boundaries, reaching all who are open to receiving it. Help us to recognize Your presence in unexpected places and people. May we never let pride or prejudice close our hearts to Your truth. When we struggle to understand Your ways, grant us the humility of Naaman, who trusted in Your word and was healed. May we surrender our own expectations and accept Your will with faith.
Through the intercession of Saint Gabriel the Archangel, the divine messenger, may we listen attentively to Your voice and respond with obedience. Through the example of Saint Catherine of Sweden, who lived a life of holiness and charity, may we seek purity of heart and a deep love for You.
We pray for those who experience rejection or feel unwelcome in their own communities. May they find comfort in Your abiding love and the strength to persevere. We also pray for those who struggle with spiritual pride, that they may embrace humility and recognize Your grace working in ways beyond their expectations.
Joining Pope Francis in his March prayer intention, we pray for families in crisis, that they may experience healing, restoration, and the peace of Christ in their homes. May struggling marriages be strengthened, and may children find love and security in their families. 🙏🏽
LET US PRAY
God of all wisdom, I know that You know all things and that all things can be used for Your glory and for the salvation of my soul. Help me to trust You, especially when I endure suffering in life. May I never despair when treated unjustly and may my hope always be in You and in Your power to redeem all things. Jesus, I trust in You. Amen🙏🏽
Heavenly Father, Your ways are higher than our ways, and Your grace knows no limits. Like Naaman, who humbled himself to receive healing, help us to trust in Your wisdom, even when it challenges our understanding. Give us open hearts to receive Your truth, that we may never reject the gifts You offer. Lord, remove from us the pride that blinds us, and grant us the faith to follow You wherever You lead.
Saint Gabriel the Archangel, bearer of God’s messages, guide us in listening to the voice of the Lord. Saint Catherine of Sweden, model of faith and purity, intercede for us that we may seek holiness in our daily lives.
Lord Jesus, strengthen us in times of rejection and doubt. May we never turn away from Your truth but embrace it with humility and love. We entrust ourselves to Your divine will, knowing that You lead us to eternal life. Amen. 🙏🏽
Save us, Savior of the world. Our Blessed Mother Mary, Saint Joseph, Saint Gabriel the Archangel, and Saint Catherine of Sweden ~ Pray for us. 🙏🏽
May this Lenten season deepen our trust in God’s providence and open our hearts to His transforming grace. Wishing us all a blessed and grace-filled Monday of the Third Week of Lent. Amen. 🙏🏽
Blessings and Love always, Philomena đź’–
