“The well-spring of Mary’s joy is the possession of Jesus.”

    –Sister Marie Eugenie of Jesus                                                  

For Reflection:            

Both the Pieta and yesterday’s poem portray a serene and composed image of the Blessed Mother. In both, Mary is “in possession” of Jesus, physically, spiritually, and eternally. How can this moment be for Mary, then, a well-spring of joy? Ponder this and record your reflections. How does this inspire you?
