MARY IMMACULATE
THE PRIVILEGE
THE PRIVILEGE
4. Our Privilege.
We also partake of this privilege. We were born in sin. But immediately we enjoyed the privilege of being baptized, our souls became pure and innocent, similar to that of Mary's. Baptismal grace rendered us most lovely before God. That is why when we joyfully meditate on the Immaculate Conception of Mary we must meditate also on our own birth to the life of grace and ask ourselves: Do I keep the immaculate beauty of my baptism? Have I lost it? Do I possess a real esteem for it?
Ask pardon from Mary and beg Her help always to live up to that life of purity of Her Immaculate Heart.
