“You, Lord, know the hearts of men. Make your choice known to us.”

                               ~Acts: 1:24

For Reflection:

How willing am I to surrender all of my choices to the will of God? In what one way can I begin today to grow in this virtue?

        A Note on the Texts

A note on the authors chosen for inclusion here: My intention was to feature as many writers as possible. But any compilation of this sort, with 365 substantial readings rather than brief quotes must depend heavily on several teachers whose Marian writings are extensive and widely recognized as classic texts on the subject. Among these are St. Louis de Montfort, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, St. John of Damascus, Blessed John Henry Newman and, most especially, St Alphonsus Liguori.
