MARY'S LAST YEARS
6. Finally, a Life of Love and Charity towards Souls.
She would constantly pray for all and especially for sinners. Would not those prayers be the cause of the first miraculous conversions brought about by the apostles? How She would pray for the persecutors. How She would pray for Saul, so as to transform him into St. Paul. Moreover, that love for souls used to shine forth by helping all with Her words, teaching them the mysteries of the faith that She knew so well, encouraging the faithful, especially by Her example. The example of Her life was a beautiful sermon. Would that you yourself were like Her. Pray to Our Heavenly Mother to obtain for you the grace of imitating in some way Her holy, pure and immaculate life.
