State of grace
July 14
"...To be a true militant of Christ, you must be in the state of grace."
-Emil Neubert, SM, STD
Today’s Reflection:
How can you fight for Christ if His grace is not in you? How can you bring Him to souls when you yourself are far away from Him? How can one who is supernaturally dead give life to others? Ponder these questions during your time of examen this week and if need be, begin again by going to the sacrament of reconciliation.

As a Christian, you are another Christ
July 13
"As a Christian, you are another Christ. As a militant, you continue the work of Christ. Imitate Christ, therefore, and let our Blessed Mother form you as she formed Christ."
-Emil Neubert, SM, STD
Today’s Reflection:
Like any good Christian mother, Our Blessed Mother desires to form you into "another Christ." Her knowledge, perfection and skill surpasses all earthly mothers. How does this knowledge impact the degree to which you will entrust yourself to Jesus through Mary?

Time is short
July 12
"Mary must be terrible to the devil and his crew, as an army ranged in battle, principally in these latter times, because the devil, knowing that he has but little time, and now less than ever, to destroy souls, will every day redouble his efforts and his combats. He will presently raise up cruel persecutions and will put terrible snares before the faithful servants and true children of Mary, whom it give him more trouble to conquer than it does to conquer others."
-St. Louis De Montfort, True Devotion to Mary

Queen of the Apostles
July 11
"It is not an empty flattery to bestow on Mary the title of Queen of the Apostles. Just as she assisted the Apostles, the teachers of the infant church with the support and advice of a mother, so we must affirm that at all times and in all ways she accords her assistance to all those who inherit the office of the Apostles."
-Pope Benedict XV
Today’s Reflection:
Mary's role as Queen of Apostles did not end with the coming of the Holy Ghost. In fact, it was only beginning. Just as she interceded for the Apostles and the early Church, she desires to intercede for us in our task of conquering the world for Christ, through the power of her spouse, the Holy Spirit.

Spiritual mother
July 10
"Behold thy Mother."
-John19:27
Today’s Reflection:
Our Lord Jesus confided His mother to us. She gave Him natural life. She gives us supernatural life. She sustains and nurtures supernatural life in us by the grace of light, love, and strength that she obtains on our behalf through her intercession.
As Christ's militants, we are called to imitate Mary, as spiritual mother to others, through our own intercession, prayers, and love. Who can you spiritually mother today?

Behave like a soldier
If you have been praying with us you understand that we have been enlisted as soldiers in God's kingdom, by virtue of our baptism and confirmation. Every moment of our lives on earth is a battle, a spiritual battle, and our enemy the Devil never rests. He is constantly prowling around seeking souls to devour.
Christ, our Strength
July 9
"Christ is our Head, our Model, our Strength, our Life, our God, our All..."
-Emil Neubert, SM, STD
Today’s Reflection:
Does this quote ring true for you? If not, spend quiet time with Our Lord and surrender your life to Him.

Enter Into His Rest
I will never forget the early days of my walk with Christ Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I sang out loud, wore a permanent smile on my face, and quoted scripture to everyone I encountered, if they wanted to hear it or not. Within my soul was a burning desire to tell the world, “He lives.”
Obedience of Mary
July 8
"To repair the damage done by our first parents, divine Mercy devised a 'plan of revenge' modeled so to speak, on the plan of our defeat. God willed that at the side of the New Adam there should be a 'New Eve,' Mary. Just as a fallen angel, disguised as a serpent, suggested disobedience to the first Eve, so the good angel, Gabriel, asked obedience of Mary."
-Emil Neubert, SM, STD
