Catholic Missal of the day: Wednesday, December 10 2025

Wednesday of the Second week of Advent

Book of Isaiah

40,25-31.

To whom can you liken me as an equal? says the Holy One.
Lift up your eyes on high and see who has created these: He leads out their army and numbers them, calling them all by name. By his great might and the strength of his power not one of them is missing!
Why, O Jacob, do you say, and declare, O Israel, "My way is hidden from the LORD, and my right is disregarded by my God"?
Do you not know or have you not heard? The LORD is the eternal God, creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint nor grow weary, and his knowledge is beyond scrutiny.
He gives strength to the fainting; for the weak he makes vigor abound.
Though young men faint and grow weary, and youths stagger and fall,
They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength, they will soar as with eagles' wings; They will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint.


Psalms

103(102),1-2.3-4.8.10.

Bless the LORD, O my soul;
and all my being, bless his holy name.
Bless the LORD, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits.
He pardons all your iniquities,
he heals all your ills.
He redeems your life from destruction,
he crowns you with kindness and compassion.
Merciful and gracious is the LORD,
slow to anger and abounding in kindness.
Not according to our sins does he deal with us,
nor does he requite us according to our crimes.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew

11,28-30.

Jesus said to the crowds: “Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden light."


St. Eulalia(Virgin and Martyr († 304))

SAINT EULALIA Virgin and Martyr( 304) St. Eulalia was a native of Merida, Spain. At the age of 12, she suffered persecution from Emperor Diocletian. When she was brought before Judge Dacianus, she reproached him for coercing people to renounce Jesus. Hence, she was arrested. The governor tried winning over Eulalia with flattery. When he failed, he threatened her. He showed her instruments of torture saying, "All this you shall escape if you will but touch a little salt and frankincense with the tip of your finger." In response, Eulalia threw down the idol and trampled upon the sacrificial cake. At the judge's order, two executioners tore Eulalia's sides with iron hooks and exposed her bones. Next, lighted torches were applied to her breasts and sides: under which torment, nothing was heard from her except thanksgivings. The fire at length caught her hair, and she was burned and suffocated to death. St. Eulalia loved Jesus and Mary above all things. Her heroic virtues and selfless sacrifice imitated Jesus' life. With love beyond all telling, Jesus Christ grants miracles through St. Eulalia's intercession.
