You Will Be Embraced as I Was!

The day will come, and it is not far off, when Mary will embrace her faithful children, as She had the goodness to embrace me. Here is a promise that, based on what grace breathes within me, I make to those who read these lines: “If you are true children …

Affectionate and Confident Children

We ought to be true children towards the Most Holy Virgin, brimming with veneration, affection and confidence. When a mother plays with her toddler by taking a ball from him to have the satisfaction of seeing him retrieve it from her hands, her intention is not to deprive the child …

The Flourishing of Holiness

Thanks to the impetus of the preaching friars, St. Thomas Aquinas outstanding among them, Scholasticism reached the height of its brilliance, filling the whole world with awe for its perfect exposition of Theology and Philosophy. The Church would entrust the Dominican Order with the keeping of the sacred deposit of …

Father, Guide and Protector of the Virgin

Among the countless graces that the Father bestowed on His beloved Daughter during her time in the Temple, the relationship with Simeon stands out. By virtue of the strong consonance She immediately felt with the righteousness and faith of this priest-prophet, the little one made the firm intention to never …

Inspirer of the Victories of Good

“Who is this that looks forth like the dawn, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army with banners?” (Sg 6:10). The sacred text compares the Blessed Virgin to an army in battle array. Our Lady strikes terror into the powers of evil, for She unmasks …

The Reward for Fidelity

When Mary and Joseph arrived at the Temple, they were met by the priest Simeon who, “inspired by the Spirit”, had gone there. Our Lady presented him with her Son, who was most amiable towards him. The venerable old man experienced an indescribable joy at receiving God himself in his …

Vocation to Universal Motherhood

Just as a small cloud that appeared on the horizon prompted Elijah to announce a torrential rain, the sight of the Magi was all that the prophetic spirit of the Mother of God needed to foresee the birth of a new Israel, no longer formed on the basis of blood …

Friend of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Guardian of the Virgin

St. John the Evangelist was an eminently virginal soul, extraordinarily close to Our Lord, and most devoted to His Sacred Heart. More than an Apostle, he was a true friend of the God-Man. That is why Our Lord, before dying on the Wood, left to His beloved disciple an inestimable …

Charity Unites Us to God

Who can describe the bond of God’s charity? Who will be able to express the perfection of its beauty? Unspeakable is the height to which charity, our union with God, raises us. Charity covers a multitude of sins; charity bears all things, tolerates everything with patience. There is nothing foul …

Immaculate and “Divine” Infant

What an enchanting Infant! Exempt from original sin, gifted with infused knowledge and the full use of reason from the moment She opened her eyes to reality, Mary understood all that happened around her. Devoid of any sign of that puerile behaviour proper to the descendants of Adam, She was …
