In this episode Father discusses the feast of Good Shepherd Sunday with particular emphasis on the Good Shepherd Discourse from the Gospel of Saint John. When a sheep demonstrates the habit of wandering off from the flock a shepherd will break its legs and carry it for two weeks (during which time that lamb or sheep will learn the voice of the shepherd up close and personal). Let us all pay spiritual heed to the teachings of the Good Shepherd lest something unfortunate happen to our soul!

We continue the discussion of the Morning Offering and the power of the intercession of the Communion of Saints before beginning a discussion on the Mass and finally on Confession.

My Jesus, I believe that Thou art present in the Blessed Sacrament. I love Thee above all things and I desire Thee in my soul. Since I cannot now receive Thee sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though thou wert already there, I embrace Thee and unite myself wholly to Thee; permit not that I should ever be separated from Thee (Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori).

We continue our discussion of the Morning Offering, this time emphasizing the benefits that accrue from calling on our patron Saints. Let us always have recourse to the Saints in heaven who want to help us get to the Beatific Vision along with them and are more than willing to help us if we will only ask for their assistance!
