"Come near to your heavenly Mother. She will teach you the courage which makes militants for Christ.
-Emil Neubert, SM, STD
Today’s Reflection:
Consider the divinely heroic courage the Virgin Mary had to manifest throughout her life -- at the birth of Christ in a stable; the flight into Egypt; during Jesus's public ministry; at the foot of the Cross; at the tomb; after the ascension. Ask her to share a portion of her courage with you.
