Mary TV Daily Reflection 12/20/2010

December 20, 2010
Dear Family of Mary!

"Dear children! This is the time of grace. Little children, today in a special way with little Jesus, whom I hold in my embrace, I am giving you the possibility to decide for peace. Through your 'yes' for peace and your decision for God, a new possibility for peace is opened. Only in this way, little children, this century will be for you a time of peace and well-being. Therefore, put little newborn Jesus in the first place in your life and He will lead you on the way of salvation. Thank you for having responded to my call." (December 25, 1999)

In this message Our Lady asks us to make room for Jesus in our hearts, actually to give him all the room in our hearts. As a newborn child, Jesus was rejected from all the inns in Bethlehem, from all the homes, from all the humanly habitable dwellings. He was given the last place, a dirty, dark, cold stable. But can we boast of having done any better in our day? What kind of reception does Baby Jesus receive in our day? With over 50 million babies aborted in America alone over the past 40 years, it would seem that Jesus does not fare any better.

And so in our Christmas Novena for today we pray that we will prepare our hearts through our own sufferings and humiliations to welcome Baby Jesus when He comes at Christmas, to make room for Him, in fact to give Him all the room there is in our hearts. Our Lady promises that if we do say "yes" to Baby Jesus we will make way for a time of peace and well-being that is unprecedented. Come, Baby Jesus, and lead us on the way of salvation!

FIFTH DAY: DECEMBER 20

O Most Adorable Jesus, Who, upon Your arrival at Bethlehem, was rejected by all men. 0 grant us to follow Your example in sufferings and contempt, that we may welcome You joyfully into our hearts, when You seek an entrance there, either by holy inspirations or by Your Divine Sacraments.

Our Father... Hail Mary...Glory be...

The Virgin Mary, baby Jesus, and angels in heaven.

HAIL AND BLESSED be the hour and the moment in which the Son of God was born of the Most Pure Blessed Virgin Mary at midnight in Bethlehem in the piercing cold: In that hour, 0 my God, please hear my prayer and grant my petitions, through the merits of Jesus Christ Our Lord

In Jesus and Mary!

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.
