Ave Maria!— February’s Theme: The Will of God
“The summit of the humiliation of the Lord was in His passion and in His death, in which – submitting Himself with the human will to the Will of His Father – He bore so many torments, until the point of tolerating the most infamous death, the death of the cross. […]. His obedience (and for the nobility of Him Who was obeying, and for the arduousness of the command, and for the spontaneity in giving Himself to such obedience to the Heavenly Father) was so pleasing to the Eternal Father that He exalted Him, ‘giving him a name’ says the apostle ‘which is above all names’”.
