Ave Maria!— March’s Theme: Suffering
“Pray with brief ejaculatory prayers, even just with the name ‘Mary’, and suffer, above all enduring whatever She Herself desires to send you, whether interior or exterior and ” rejoice. Yes, even rejoice and work and rest and ” everything, everything that regards you in any way, offer it according to the intentions which are most pleasing to the Immaculate, give it, that is, to Her as Her property, to Her free disposition. We, in fact, have consecrated ourselves unlimitedly to Her, and for this reason we have rights to neither our thoughts, nor our actions, nor our words.” (SK #373)
