Our Lady, Queen of Peace!

St. John Eudes, Priest
Dear Family of Mary!
As
we approach the Feast of the Queenship of Mary, August 22, we continue
to meditate on the messages from Our Lady in which she calls herself
“The Queen of Peace.” It would seem that in our modern society, the idea
of royalty seems antiquated. In the “real world” of politics there are
no kings and queens, only party leaders and elected officials. But in
the Eternal reality of God, there is royalty. Jesus is the King of
Heaven and Earth, the King of Peace. And Our Lady is the Queen of Heaven
and Earth, the Queen of Peace! And we need to learn how to relate to
our King and Queen, in all their royal dignity!
Our Lady said to us:
"Dear children! Today I am calling you to a complete surrender to God.
Everything
you do and everything you possess give over to God so that He can take
control in your life as the King of all that you possess.
That way, through me, God can lead you into the depths of the spiritual life.
Little children, do not be afraid, because I am with you even if you think there is no way out and that satan is in control.
I am bringing peace to you I am your mother, the Queen of Peace.
I am blessing you with the blessings of joy so that for you God may be everything in your life...
Thank you for having responded to my call." July 25, 1988
Our
Lady is our Queen. But she does not rule by power and might. She is
first our Mother! “I am your mother, the Queen of Peace”. She blesses us
with a blessing of joy! She is with us to dispel fear, even fear of
satan, because she is with us. No matter what it looks like, she is
stronger than our adversary. She leads us into a relationship with
Jesus, our King! Once Jesus takes control of our lives, we are free to
follow Our Lady into the depths of the spiritual life! Truly Our Lady is
our Mother, who gives us her heart, and surrounds us with her
protections.
St. John Eudes taught
about the Hearts of Jesus and Mary! He understood that we can only know
our King and Queen through a heart to heart relationship. And so, on
St. John Eudes feast day, let’s pray his beautiful prayer to the Heart
of Mary:
Heart of Mary
Hail, Heart most holy.
Hail, Heart most meek.
Hail, Heart most humble.
Hail, Heart most pure.
Hail, Heart most devoted.
Hail, Heart most wise.
Hail, Heart most patient.
Hail, Heart most obedient.
Hail, Heart most watchful.
Hail, Heart most faithful.
Hail, Heart most blessed.
Hail, Heart most merciful.
Hail, most loving Heart of Mary.
We adore You.
We praise You.
We glorify You.
We give You thanks.
We love You.
With all our heart,
with all our soul,
with all our strength,
we offer our heart to You.
We give,
We consecrate,
We immolate,
Accept and possess our heart entirely,
And purify it,
and enlighten it,
And sanctify it,
That You may live and reign in our heart,
Now and forever. Amen
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
