Wednesday of the Thirty-fourth week in Ordinary Time

Book of Revelation

I, John, saw in heaven another sign, great and awe-inspiring: seven angels with the seven last plagues, for through them God's fury is accomplished.
Then I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire. On the sea of glass were standing those who had won the victory over the beast and its image and the number that signified its name. They were holding God's harps,
and they sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb: "Great and wonderful are your works, Lord God almighty. Just and true are your ways, O king of the nations.
Who will not fear you, Lord, or glorify your name? For you alone are holy. All the nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed."

Psalms

Sing to the LORD a new song,
for he has done wondrous deeds;
His right hand has won victory for him,
his holy arm.
The LORD has made his salvation known:
in the sight of the nations he has revealed his justice.
He has remembered his kindness and his faithfulness
toward the house of Israel.
Let the sea and what fills it resound,
the world and those who dwell in it;
Let the rivers clap their hands,
The mountains shout with them for joy before the LORD.
The LORD comes,
He comes to rule the earth;
He will rule the world with justice
And the peoples with equity.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke

Jesus said to the crowd: “They will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons, and they will have you led before kings and governors because of my name.
It will lead to your giving testimony.
Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand,
for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute.
You will even be handed over by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will put some of you to death.
You will be hated by all because of my name,
but not a hair on your head will be destroyed.
By your perseverance you will secure your lives."

St. Maximus(Bishop († 460))

SAINT MAXIMUS Bishop ( 460) St. Maximus succeeded St. Honoratus as the abbot of Lerins. He was noted as being recollected, fervent and pious. Like the saints throughout history, he encountered God in his heart during the ordinary moments of each day (St. Josemaria Escriva). St. Maximus converted Frejus' clergy and population by his prayers, mortifications and works. He ordered his routine in such a way that his internal world and exterior acts conformed to Christ. Thus, people were converted by Maximin's prayer, fidelity and authenticity: last of all by his preaching (St. Josemaria Escriva). Although he received the see of Riex and the bishopric at an advanced age, St. Maximus served cheerfully to the very end. He passed away, like St. Joseph, in the presence of the Holy Family.

St. Virgil(Bishop († 784))

Saint Virgil Bishop(c. 8th century - 784) St. Virgil was the bishop of Salzburg, Austria. He was also an apostle to Carinthia in the Eastern Alps. He was numbered among the saints by Pope Gregory IX.
