Meditation of the day: we must support weak Christians

The Lord says: "You have not strengthened the weak sheep, you have not treated the sick" (Ez 34, 4).
Speak to the bad shepherds, to the false shepherds, to the shepherds who seek their interests, not those of Jesus Christ, who are very solicitous of the proceeds of their office, but who do not take care of the flock at all, and do not reassure those who are sick.
Since we speak of the sick and infirm, even if it seems to be the same thing, a difference could be admitted. In fact, to consider well the words in themselves, sick is properly who is already touched by evil, while sick is the one who is not firm and therefore only weak.
For those who are weak, it is necessary to fear that temptation will assail him and bring him down. The sick person is already suffering from some passion, and this prevents him from entering the way of God, from submitting to the yoke of Christ.
Some men, who want to live well and have already made the intention to live virtuously, have less ability to endure evil than willingness to do good. Now, however, it is proper to Christian virtue not only to do good, but also to know how to endure evils. Therefore those who seem fervent in doing good, but do not want or do not know how to endure the sufferings that are pressing, are infirm or weak. But those who love the world out of some insane desire and even turn away from the good works themselves, are already overcome by evil and are sick. Illness makes him as powerless and unable to do anything good. Such was in the soul that paralytic who could not be introduced before the Lord. Then those who carried it discovered the roof and dropped it from there. You too must behave as if you wanted to do the same thing in the inner world of man: to uncover his roof and to lay before the Lord the paralyzed soul himself, weakened in all his limbs and unable to do good works, oppressed by his sins and suffering from the disease of his greed.
The doctor is there, he is hidden and he is inside the heart. This is the true occult sense of Scripture to explain.
So if you find yourself in front of a patient who is shrunken in his limbs and struck by internal paralysis, to get him to the doctor, open the roof and bring down the paralytic, that is, let him get into himself and reveal to him what is hidden in the folds of his heart. Show him his illness and the doctor who has to cure him.
To those who neglect to do this, have you heard what reproach is being addressed? This: "You have not strengthened the weak sheep, you have not treated the sick, you have not bandaged those wounds" (Ez 34: 4). The wounded man mentioned here is as we have already said, he who finds himself as terrified of temptations. The medicine to offer in this case is contained in these consoling words: "God is faithful and will not allow you to be tempted beyond your strength, but with temptation he will also give us the way out and the strength to bear it"
