✞ How the cross is the surest sign to know whether we love the Lord.
As the Gospel is proclaimed, the cloth of Manopello shines like a sun. Then the heavens open and St. Michael the Archangel stands to the left of the altar and serves the priest during Holy Mass. He is dressed differently than I usually see him. He wears a white robe and a red sash around his waist, on which the wounded heart of Jesus and the instruments of the Passion are depicted. After receiving Holy Communion, St. Michael the Archangel says:
"With these instruments they inflicted wounds on the Lord. The Lord also bore these wounds for you and your time. Many priests do not recognize the grace of the Holy Sacrifice of the Cross. They have no idea that the Holy Mass opens heaven and that the angels serve them at the altar when they celebrate the Holy Mass full of love, with an open heart full of devotion."
