Dec 25 ?? When You First Saw Him |
|
Ave Maria! “What were you thinking, O Immaculate, when for the first time you laid the Divine Child in that little bit of hay? What sentiments flooded your heart while you wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, drew Him close to your heart and nursed Him at your breast? You knew well who that Child was because the prophets had spoken of Him, and you understood them better than all of the Pharisees and scholars of the Scripture??Furthermore, how many mysteries about Jesus did that Divine Spirit, who lived and acted in you, reveal only and exclusively to your immaculate soul!” (SK #1236) +++
