00:00July 11th. The Precious Blood. Fire for the lukewarm soul.

00:06The precious blood of Jesus is not only a cleansing stream for sinners,

00:10but also a fire to awaken the lukewarm. How many souls, though not in open rebellion,

00:18live half asleep, dull in prayer, cold at mass, hesitant to love, indifferent to grace.

00:25Yet it was not a mild devotion that poured from Christ's wounds.

00:30But a blazing torrent of divine love.

00:33The blood of Jesus is not for the passive. It calls us to burn.

00:37His blood is not given drop by drop, but poured out without reserve.

00:43Lukewarmness offends such love more than hatred does, because it responds to passion with apathy.

00:49In Revelation, the Lord warns the lukewarm,

00:53I will spit you out of my mouth. Revelation 3.16

00:57Why? Because they neither fight against God, nor love Him enough to follow closely.

01:04They keep Christ at a polite distance, preferring comfort to sacrifice.

01:09But the precious blood demands a response.

01:11When we contemplate the wounds of Jesus, not abstractly, but truly gaze upon the cost of our redemption,

01:19our hearts should tremble.

01:21This is not guilt. It is the stirring of divine love.

01:25It is a call to repentance, to zeal, to total surrender.

01:29And for those who feel lifeless in spirit, there is no better remedy than meditating on the blood

01:35He shed for you personally, deliberately, and without hesitation.

01:40Saint Benedict, whose feast we celebrate today, knew the danger of spiritual lukewarmness.

01:46In a world collapsing from moral and spiritual decay,

01:49he called his followers to Ora et Labra, a life of disciplined prayer and holy work.

01:54His rule became a lifeline for the church.

01:58Benedict's monks sought not mediocrity, but holiness.

02:02They ordered their lives around Christ, trusting that through prayer, sacrifice, and fidelity,

02:07their hearts could be set aflame again.

02:10The fire that sustained monastic Europe was lit at the foot of the cross.

02:14Saint Benedict teaches us this,

02:16Holiness is not an emotion. It is a decision.

02:20And the blood of Jesus gives us the grace to choose that path daily.

02:23When our hearts feel cold, we must not withdraw.

02:28We must come closer, to the cross, to the altar, to the wounds of love.

02:33There the fire still burns.

02:35Let us pray.

02:37Jesus, forgive me for every moment I have responded to your love with indifference.

02:44Stir my heart again with the fire of your precious blood.

02:48Let it awaken in me a zeal that cannot be quenched by comfort or fear.

02:52Through the wisdom of Saint Benedict, teach me the rhythm of holy discipline, rooted in love for you.

03:01Set my heart ablaze with devotion, and keep me from the dangers of lukewarmness.

03:07May I live in the warmth of your wounds. Amen.
