Collection
O God the Father, whom you sent into the world
your Son, Word of truth,
and the sanctifying Spirit
to reveal to men the mystery of your life,
do that in the profession of the true faith
we recognize the glory of the Trinity
and we worship the one God in three persons.
For our Lord Jesus Christ ...

You glorify yourself, O God, your Church,
contemplating the mystery of your wisdom
with which you created and ordered the world;
you who in the Son have reconciled us
and in the Spirit you sanctified us,
grant that, in patience and hope,
we can come to full knowledge of you
that you are love, truth and life.
For our Lord Jesus Christ ...

First Reading
Before the earth was, Wisdom was already generated.
From the book of Proverbs
Pro 8,22: 31-XNUMX

Thus speaks the Wisdom of God:

"The Lord created me as the beginning of his business,
before each of his works, at the origin.
From eternity I was formed,
from the beginning, from the beginnings of the earth.

When the abysses did not exist, I was begotten,
when there were still no water-laden springs;
before the bases of the mountains were fixed,
before the hills, I was begotten,
when he still hadn't made the land and the fields
nor the first clods in the world.

When he stared at the skies, I was there;
when drawing a circle on the abyss,
when it condensed the clouds above,
when he stared at the sources of the abyss,
when he established his limits at sea,
so that the waters did not go beyond its borders,
when he laid the foundations of the earth,
I was with him as the architect
and I was his delight every day:
I played in front of him in every moment,
I played on the terrestrial globe,
placing my delights among the children of man ».

God's word

Responsorial Psalm
From Psalm 8
R. O Lord, how wonderful your name is on all the earth!
When I see your skies, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars that you have fixed,
what is man because you remember him,
the son of man, why do you care? R.

You really did it a little less than a god,
you crowned him with glory and honor.
You gave him power over the works of your hands,
you have everything under his feet. R.

All flocks and herds
and even the beasts of the countryside,
the birds of the sky and the fish of the sea,
every being who travels the ways of the seas. R.

Second reading
Let us go to God through Christ, in the charity spread in us by the Spirit.
From the letter of Saint Paul the Apostle to the Romans
Rom 5,1-5

Brothers, justified by faith, we are at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we also have, through faith, access to this grace in which we find ourselves and boast, firm in the hope of the glory of God.

And not only that: we also boast in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces patience, patience a proven virtue and proven virtue hope.

Hope then does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
