[MaryVitamin] dependent upon Our Lady

Mary Vitamin for December 28^th

 

Topic: Dependent upon Our Lady

 

Quote:

St. Louis de Montfort

"This good Master did not disdain to shut Himself up in the womb of the Blessed Virgin, as a captive and as a loving slave, and later be subject and obedient to her for thirty years."

True Devotion to Mary, (Tan Books: 1985), 88.

 

Meditation:

St. Louis de Montfort

 "It is here, I repeat, that the human mind loses itself, when it seriously reflects on the conduct of the Incarnate Wisdom who willed to give Himself to men -- not directly, though He might have done so, but through the Blessed Virgin. He did not will to come into the world at the age of perfect man, independent of others, but like a poor little babe, dependent on the care and support of this holy Mother."

St. Louis de Montfort, True Devotion to Mary, (Tan Books: 1985), 88.

 

Resolution:

Today I want to make many Spiritual Communions and remember each time that the Almighty God came into the world: humble, poor, and dependent upon the Blessed Virgin Mary.

 

Marian Vow:

The Marian Vow fulfills what St. Louis de Montfort says:

"The more the Holy Spirit finds Mary, His dear and inseparable spouse, in any soul, the more active and mighty He becomes in producing Jesus Christ in that soul, and that soul in Jesus Christ."

 

I give this resolution to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

 

Thanks be to God for graces received.

*To make a Spiritual communion it is sufficient to think of a Tabernacle or a Monstrance and ask the Lord to come into your soul spiritually.

 

My Jesus, I believe that You are really present in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. I love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You Sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart... (pause) ...I embrace You as though you were already there and unite myself wholly to You, never let me be separated from You
