Welcome to the traditional Catholic daily devotional.

Today's Sunday, January 26, 2025, the third Sunday after Epiphany, a second-class feast with the color of green.

In this episode, the meditation, a method of hearing holy mass.

Today's news from the church, how the ECHR protects Masonic secrecy,

and today's thought from the Archbishop.

But first the colleagues of today's Mass,

Almighty and everlasting God,

look with favor upon our weakness,

and stretch forth the right hand of thy majesty to help and to defend us.

The Mass of the third Sunday, after Epiphany, presents to us in the gospel the story

of the centurion, meeting our Lord Jesus Christ, and declaring his own unworthiness for the Messiah

to enter under the roof of his house.

At the Agnus Day, in the Holy Sacr sacrifice of the Mass, we call three times upon the mercy of God,

and at the same time, we confess our unworthiness in the Domene non-sum Dignus.

Lord, I am not worthy, again said three times, one after the other.

Today's meditation, a method of hearing Holy Mass, part one.

To hear the Holy Mass with fruit, you must remember that as St. Thomas teaches,

we owe four debts or four obligations to God.

The first is to praise and honor his infinite majesty,

which is worthy of infinite love and infinite praise. The second is to make satisfaction to him

for so many sins which we have committed. The third is to thank him for the great benefits

he has bestowed upon us, and the fourth is to pray to him as the giver of all graces.
