Ave Maria Meditations
| I want my whole life to be inspired by love. He who loves, does all things easily, or, if he suffers, he loves that suffering. Why is suffering necessary? Because on earth, pure love cannot exist without suffering. 0 Jesus, Jesus, I no longer feel my cross when I think of yours.O my soul, be the faithful imitator of Jesus meek and humble of heart. He who has been meek and humble of heart deserves to be glorified. What then will be the reward of those who, interiorly humble and exteriorly humiliated, have followed the humility of our Savior in all its dimensions?
+ O Mary, my dear Mother, here is your poor child, unable to carry on any longer. You know my needs and above all my spiritual distress. Have pity on me. Grant that one day I may be with you in heaven. I shall do everything to gain heaven, for there is my home. There I shall find my Mother in all her celestial glory and, with her, I shall enjoy the happiness of Jesus himself. O Mary, most loving Mother, grant that following your example, I may be generous in all the sacrifices that our Lord may ask of me during my life. O Mother, offer me to Jesus! O Mother, take my heart and conceal it in the heart of my Jesus. St. Bernadette Soubirous |
Happy feast day to all who are blessed to have this awesome saints name! 🙂
St Bernadette was blessed to hear our Lady proclaim herself as “The Immaculate Conception”! What wonders our Lord has in store for the humble; the children at heart!!
Ave Maria!
