There are three options, one for each of the Cycles.
Bring up your sacrifices and come into his courts; adore the Lord in his holy temple.
An echo of "Adeste Fideles", we arrived at the ultimate place of worship. The Manger and the Cross, altars in their own ways, uphold the Real Presence for our adoration.
If a man wishes to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
A repeat of one from the 12th. Sunday of Ordinary Time, we are confronted again with the Cross. The "sign of contradiction" is the true symbol of Christian discipleship.
I say unto you: there is joy among the Angels of God for one single sinner who repents.
One of the three options from the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart, here we see a part of the depth of love Jesus has for us. The joy of Heaven is eternally profound when we "turn from sin and believe in the Gospel."
