Mary's Eve August 4th, 2010

Mary's Eve – Medjugorje 2010

Mary's Eve, August 4, 2010 in Medjugorje was a beautiful night. Several hundred pilgrims gathered at Marija's Chapel of the Two Hearts to welcome Our Lady. Among them the Caritas Pilgrimage group was blessed present.

Some of the Caritas Pilgrimage group that was present for Our Lady's apparition to Marija on Mary's Eve in Medjugorje, August 4, 2010.

Marija's Chapel of the Two Hearts, surrounded by hundreds of pilgrims who came to give their hearts to Our Lady.

To be in the presence of Our Lady, while in Medjugorje is a special gift, in which many bring with them in their petitions their loved ones, those who have asked them for prayers, and every difficulty and trial that they face.

Mother and Child – Medjugorje, August 4, 2010

Marija once told the founder of Caritas about the time she received a kiss from Our Lady on her birthday. The founder asked Marija what the kiss felt like. Marija replied that there were no words to describe it. He continued to ask her, if there could be any words at all that may describe receiving a kiss from Our Lady, what would it be? Marija replied that it was something that went through her entire soul, to the depths of her soul. The founder asked again, that if there were any words that could describe it, what words could she describe it as. Marija replied, "I felt Mother!"

This good mother above, just moments before Our Lady appears, is succoring her child, as only a good mother can do. It makes us stop to reflect on Our Lady and Her love for each of us.

Quotes from 'The Glories of Mary':

‘I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head.’

(Gen. 3:15)

“Since the devil is the head of original sin, this head it was that Mary crushed: for sin never had any entry into the soul of this Blessed Virgin, which was consequently free from all stain.”

Saint Augustine

PSALM 71 SPEAKS TO MY HEART

Forsake Me Not When My Strength Is Spent

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame!
In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
incline your ear to me, and save me!

Be to me a rock of refuge,
to which I may continually come;
you have given the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
For you, O Lord, are my hope,
my trust, O Lord, from my youth.
Upon you I have leaned from before my birth;
you are he who took me from my mother's womb.
My praise is continually of you.

I have been as a portent to many,
but you are my strong refuge.
My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day.
Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
forsake me not when my strength is spent.

For my enemies speak concerning me;
those who watch for my life consult together
and say, “God has forsaken him;
pursue and seize him,
for there is none to deliver him.”

O God, be not far from me;
O my God, make haste to help me!
May my accusers be put to shame and consumed;
with scorn and disgrace may they be covered
who seek my hurt.

But I will hope continually
and will praise you yet more and more.
My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,
of your deeds of salvation all the day,
for their number is past my knowledge.

With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come;
I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.

O God, from my youth you have taught me,
and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.

So even to old age and gray hairs,
O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might to another generation,
your power to all those to come.
Your righteousness, O God,
reaches the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?

You who have made me see many troubles and calamities
will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
You will increase my greatness
and comfort me again.

I will also praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praises to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed.

And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long,
for they have been put to shame and disappointed
who sought to do me hurt.
