00:00July 22nd, The Precious Blood, Love Stronger Than Sin
00:04There is no pit so deep that the precious blood of Jesus cannot reach us.
00:10Sin may distort and wound the soul, but it can never erase our value in God's eyes.
00:16The blood of Christ was not shed for the perfect, but for the lost, the broken, the repentant.
00:24His blood is the very proof that divine love seeks not to shame the sinner, but to redeem and restore them.
00:31Every drop cries out, not for condemnation, but for forgiveness.
00:36The precious blood does not cover our sin like a bandage.
00:40It washes it away, down to the roots.
00:43It transforms us from within.
00:46Where shame once lived, it plants mercy.
00:49Where guilt paralyzed the heart, it stirs hope.
00:53This blood does not avoid our mess.
00:56It runs straight into it with the power to cleanse and recreate.
01:01To receive the blood of Christ, especially in the Eucharist, is to receive healing at the deepest level of our being.
01:11Many people carry the belief that they've gone too far to be loved by God.
01:16But the cross declares the opposite.
01:18Christ knew every sin we would commit, and still gave himself for us.
01:25The precious blood is proof that we are worth redeeming.
01:28It doesn't deny the gravity of sin.
01:31It overcomes it with love.
01:32And when we return to him, no matter how broken, we are met not with rejection, but with welcome and a feast of mercy.
01:42St. Margaret of Cortona began her life far from the light.
01:45After a troubled youth and living in a sinful relationship, her world collapsed when her partner died suddenly.
01:53Stricken by grief and shame, she turned to the mercy of God.
01:57Through the precious blood, she found not only forgiveness, but transformation.
02:02Margaret devoted her life to penance, prayer, and care for the poor, becoming a beacon of God's mercy.
02:10Her life shouts that no sin is beyond the reach of the blood of Jesus.
02:14The precious blood does not remind us of who we were in our lowest moments.
02:19It declares who we are in Christ.
02:22Washed, renewed, and beloved.
02:24Let us never fear to draw near to this fountain of mercy.
02:27Let us pray.
02:30Jesus, I give you my sins, my past, and the parts of me that feel unworthy of love.
02:37Wash me in your precious blood.
02:40Heal my shame and renew my hope.
02:43Through the intercession of St. Margaret of Cortona,
02:46who was raised from despair into holiness by your mercy,
02:50teach me to trust completely in your redeeming love.
02:54Amen.
