"O Glorious St. Matthew, in your Gospel you portray Jesus as the longed-for Messiah who fulfilled the Prophets of the Old Covenant and as the new Lawgiver who founded a Church of the New Covenant. Obtain for us the grace to see Jesus living in his Church and to follow his teachings in our lives on earth so that we may live forever with him in heaven. Amen."
This heartfelt prayer to St. Matthew, the author of the first Gospel, invites us to reflect on Jesus as the fulfillment of ancient prophecies and the foundation of the Church. St. Matthew’s portrayal of Christ inspires us to live out His teachings on earth, so we may enjoy eternal life with Him in heaven.
