At the Feet of Mary...



I should like to have lips that have been purified by fire to pronounce the name of Mary, and a gold pen to write it in gold letters…
At the feet of Mary, my dearest mother, I found life again.
Oh, all you who suffer, come to Mary, at the feet of Mary, I found life again.
Your salvation, your life are at the feet of Mary.…
-- Thoughts of St. Mary of Jesus Crucified, #11



May You Be Blessed...



On earth, children can’t be born without a mother; it’s a woman who brings them into the world.
And it’s also a woman who brings us into heaven. And this woman is Mary.
Ever since the Fall, men have been waiting for the Fruit of Mary, the Fruit of the Gentle, the Humble, Holy Virgin.
May you be blessed, Mary, may you be blessed!
-- Thoughts of St. Mary of Jesus Crucified, #10
