My Son and I have redeemed the world as with one heart - A Moment with Mary

* July 23 - Saint Bridget of Sweden (d. 1373)  * “My Son and I have redeemed the world as with one heart” --- An initiative of the Association Mary of Nazareth  July 23 - Saint Bridget of Sweden (d. 1373)  “My Son and I have redeemed the world as with one heart” Saint Bridget of Sweden claims to have heard these words from the lips of the Mother of God: "I can say, quite boldly, that his pain was my pain and his heart was my heart. Like Adam and Eve who sold the world for one fruit, My Son and I redeemed the world with almost one heart. So, my daughter, imagine how I felt at the death of my son and then it won’t seem too heavy a sacrifice for you to leave the world." (Sermo angelicus, I, 1, c 35, ed. Eklund, p. 56). Saint Bridget says she even heard this from the mouth of the Son of God: "I can say that my Mother and I saved humanity as with one heart, I who suffered in my heart and in my flesh, and she with the pain and love in her heart." (Revelationes extravagantes, ed. C. Durante, Romae 1606, c 3, p. 804). The Mary of Nazareth Team Let’s pray together  Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of death. Amen.   .  Share A Moment with Mary and give your loved ones the opportunity to discover a new aspect of the mystery of the Mother of God each day.
