A REFLECTION

'The Altar on Which They Will Be Immolated' is todays Message #61.

Our Lady is explaining to Fr. Gobbi what has happened to him since he has consecrated himself to Her Immaculate Heart. She says that She is molding and forming him. Those who consecrate themselves to Mary open the door for Her to live, work, suffer, pray and act in them.

Then we will see the changes that occur in our way of thinking; our tastes, our desires, our aspirations and even our deepest interests will change dramatically. Where before we longed for success and power, now even life seems a burden. Before we made plans and projects for the future, now tomorrow does not interest us at all.

All of us are now Our Lady's little children and She nourishes, kisses, caresses, and cradles us! Now our hearts beat in union with Hers; our minds follow Her thoughts; our words are Her words; our hands repeat Her gestures: we are , so to say, re-born again in Mary!

All this is a preparation for our being placed on the wood of the Cross. We too will be immolated, like Jesus Her Son, for the salvation of the world. The Immaculate Heart of Mother Mary will be the altar on which we will be offered as acceptable victims to Almighty God for His greatest triumph! Are you ready for this? I am, as I give myself to Jesus & Mary every day!
Roman Deacon

Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Ì I, (... name ...), a miserable sinner, renew and ratify today in thy hands, O Immaculate Mother, the vows of my baptism; I renounce Satan, his pomps and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.

In the presence of all the Heavenly court I choose thee this day for my Mother and Mistress. I deliver and consecrate to thee, as a slave of thy Divine Son, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to thee the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to thy good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity. Amen.
