Mother of Mercy

(from “The Glories of Mary” by Saint Alphonsus Maria de’ Liguori) Mary has been called an ark more spacious than that of Noah. For in that only two animals of each kind were received, but under the mantle of Mary all find room, both just and sinners. This was one…

O how beautiful is a humble soul!

a humble soul

(from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, #1306) O humility, lovely flower, I see how few souls possess you. Is it because you are so beautiful and at the same time so difficult to attain? O yes, it is both the one and the other. Even God takes great…

In Gratitude for Our Most Blessed Mother

Mother Most Admirable

(from a meditation by Saint John Eudes) How would we feel if a great monarch opened his vaults, all filled with money and precious stones, giving us permission to take as much as we wanted? This favor would be nothing in comparison with the indescribably rich gift the King of…

The Wounds of the Savior

Our Crucified Lord

(Jesus, in private revelation given to Maria Valtorta on February 20, 1944) All those who so desire, who ask the Lord God to make them ‘saviors,’ must properly consider that Mary and I are the model and that those are the tortures to be shared in so as to save.…

Mother of Divine Grace

Mary Mother of Mercy

“You know, your preacher can preach a sermon, a priest can baptize, he can say Mass, but only one person directly contributed to the bodily Incarnation of the Logos, Second Person of the Trinity, Son of God. And that was Mary. So she has that unique position. And she even…

Reverence

The Annunciation

(excerpts from a sermon by Blessed John Henry Newman) Now what did the Pharisee do? He did not even go so far as to behave in an unseemly, extravagant way: he was grave and solemn, and yet what he did was enough to displease God, because he took too much…

“My Heart is easily taken captive by My little children.”

Glorious Lord Jesus

(Jesus, in private revelation given to Gabrielle Bossis, on April 20, 1941) Don’t you come to Me with more confidence than to any friend on earth? Aren’t you at home in My Heart? It should be that way too, since for each soul I am the unique, the incomparable One.…
