Ave Maria Meditations
To Mary, Spouse of The Holy Spirit:
Daughter of the Most High, Mother of God, faithful Spouse of the Holy Spirit yet also Mary of Nazareth, Joseph’s wife, my mother- hear my prayer for grace, O Full of Grace.
Pray your Spouse, the Holy Spirit, to come upon me, to shelter me from all ill, to strengthen me to do what is right, to teach me all truth. Pray Him come to me and abide with me, and be within me a fountain springing up unto eternal life. May he sustain me in sorrow, sanctify me in life, and receive me at the hour of my death. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for me.
Our Lady of the Holy Spirit: Hear our prayer!
Through the Holy Spirit you became the Mother of Jesus; from the Holy Spirit may I too have Jesus.
Through the Holy Spirit your flesh conceived Jesus; through the same Spirit may my soul receive Jesus.
Through the Holy Spirit you were able to know Jesus, to possess Jesus, and bring him into the world; through the Holy Spirit may I too come to know your Jesus.
Imbued with the Spirit, Mary, you could say: “I am the handmaid of the Lord, be it done unto me according to your word”; in the Holy Spirit, lowly as I am, let me proclaim the great truths about Jesus.
In the Spirit you now adore Jesus as Lord and look on him as Son; in the same Spirit, Mary, let me love your Jesus.
Amen.
