Little heirs of the Kingdom of Love,
You come to earth to acquire virtues that enable you to
be happy in eternal life.
Each of you is so much more than your corporeal substance.
That you will rejoice for all eternity in my presence
As we praise and thank our Father for His great love for each of us.
Allow me to take you to Jesus now dear little children.
He has much to teach you in these final days.
Find him in the quiet of your hearts.
He is everywhere that you go.
The cosmos cannot contain Him.
Jesus is Heaven.
Peace little children.
Come with me now in peace to Jesus.
He awaits you...

-Excerpt from: The Secrets of Mary...
I love this, she is calling to us for Him. This excerpt is from The Secrets of Mary: Gifts from the Blessed Mother, it is a much longer prayer and just as beautiful, but these parts resonated in me. The Lenten Season is such a complex and passionate journey-there is so much emotion and growth to embody. In fact, it is such a paradox to our Human Condition. Here we are faced with a time that encompasses such great sadness with such great joy. Our brains are not equipped to understand that battle. We all sit so scared of death, yet, we all know the triumph that comes forth. We are here to LIVE to DIE and it is only in DEATH that we understand what it means to LIVE. This humbles me during this time of sacrifice. Mary said "Yes" to the most significant creation of human life (talk about a loaded question). Mary said "yes" to the birth of our Savior, but don't disregard her "yes" to the death of her son. I am encouraged this season to walk with our Mother Mary, I have so much to learn from her. For she truly understands the paradox of life and death.
Katie,
ReplyDeleteI am ALWAYS learning amazing things about being a woman from getting closer to the heart of Mary. During this season that is such a battle to grasp, I am thankful to be a person so in touch with my emotions. For me, being able to fully feel the anguish and sadness of Jesus on the cross and the joy that came with the triumph is key to understanding this season in the Church. Through Mary, I witness the grace and wisdom she had in this season, and hope that I will attain some of that grace and wisdom in my life.
