Daily Gracelines - Lenten Journey with Mary - Day 45

Theme: Mary's sorrowing heart is the perfect "vehicle" to take us more deeply into the passion of Jesus, Our Lord.

Grace: I pray for the grace to enter deeply into the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ by means of the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Good Friday:

Savior, when my life shall leave me,

Through your mother’s prayers receive me

With the fruits of victory.

For Reflection:

Mary has assured us of her maternal intercession and God assures us forgiveness of our sins when we truly repent. However the evil one seeks to steal all assurance from us. He does this in three ways: discouragement, distrust, doubt. Discouragement because we are afraid we now can never acquire a deep union with God; distrust that God will treat us less favorably now and that He will be stingy in the grace He gives us; doubt that God has forgiven us at all because our sin is so great.

To what extent is any one of these true of you? Read Rev. 21:5-6. Journal your insights, inspirations and consolations.  Begin the Divine Mercy Novena.
