👉🏻 Link to yesterday’s post.

Holy Father, I made it safely to my country house, yesterday evening, despite the thick fog following strong wind and heavy rain. I felt nowhere near endangered, following a path I followed for 10 years this year: it is as if You were the designated driver and I was like one of these lovely kids convinced they are driving the fireman truck on a merry-go-round. No self-loathing but I actually am. You are in charge and You give me a sense of accomplishment for things You inspire me or endeavors which burden You lighten for me. I admit it: I owe You for everything I feel proud of.

AGENDA

👉🏻 Today we celebrate Marcella of Rome.

Marcella (325–410) is a saint in the Roman Catholic Church and Orthodox Church. She was a Christian ascetic in the Byzantine Era. When the Visigoths invaded Rome in 410, the 85-year-old Marcella was brutalized. Convinced that she had hidden treasure, which she had long before distributed among the poor, she was scourged and beaten with cudgels. Other soldiers arrived who had "some reverence for holy things". They escorted Marcella and Principia to the Basilica of St. Paul, one of those which had been named by Alaric as a sanctuary for all who chose to take advantage of it. Jerome detailed the incident in a letter to a woman named Principia who had been with Marcella during the sack: When the soldiers entered [Marcella's house] she is said to have received them without any look of alarm; and when they asked her for gold she pointed to her coarse dress to show them that she had no buried treasure. However they would not believe in her self-chosen poverty, but scourged her and beat her with cudgels. She is said to have felt no pain but to have thrown herself at their feet and to have pleaded with tears for you [Principia], that you might not be taken from her, or owing to your youth have to endure what she as an old woman had no occasion to fear. Christ softened their hard hearts and even among bloodstained swords natural affection asserted its rights. The barbarians conveyed both you and her to the basilica of the apostle Paul, that you might find there either a place of safety or, if not that, at least a tomb. Exhausted and injured, Marcella died of her injuries a few days later.
