Day 5 of the
Consecration to Mary
"Dear children, you are awakening to the dawn of my Triumph. I pray for your unity in the response to my call. I give to you the choice for peace in the world. Place into effect dear ones, the requests of my Immaculate Heart. I await your response in the land of my greatest victory, Russia.
Spread your conversion throughout this
place to answer the call of these children upon my heart. I entrust to you the
conclusion of my message of the past, to give life and effect to my
words." 12-13-92
GUIDANCE: In preparing to make the consecration, the soul must
first become entirely open and the fundamental desire of love for Our Lady must
be present. This must be a pure desire, uncomplicated without any other motive
except pure love for her.
Second, the soul must desire complete reconciliation
with God. This grace is granted partly within the consecration itself because
it is a grace of unity. Without reconciliation, total unity cannot be formed as
the fullness of the grace given is, in effect, blocked. Grace must be placed
within the depths of the soul and it is only through reconciliation that the
grace from God can be received perfectly. As intense as the grace is given, so
must the reconciliation be.
Third, solitude of the soul must be found to nurture
the state of love for Our Lady. Only in solitude may her love be manifested to
the soul and the realization be given.
Fourth, an awareness of Our Lady's expectations from
the soul must be gained. It is very easy to find all our expectations of
her, but we seldom allow the expectations from her to be known. We must
have a clear understanding of what she expects of us. Without this knowledge it
is very difficult for the soul to fulfill the fruits of the consecration.
Let us pray for the understanding of the expectations
of God, through Our Lady, to become manifested in our soul.
DIRECTION: In our desire for perfection, we should frequently
seek the most exalted virtue; to love God more than all the saints, to suffer
more than all the martyrs, to bear and to pardon all injuries, to embrace every
sort of suffering for the sake of saving a single soul, and to perform acts of
charity for love of others first. These holy aspirations and desires will
create in our soul the flame of virtue, and the realm of purity and simplicity.
These are the cornerstones of the consecration.
MEDITATION: O'Immaculate Heart of Mary, help me to advance in
perfection through desiring virtue and purity. May I contemplate the goodness
of God in my life, and open my heart to those less able to recognize His favors
upon them. Ask great pardon on my behalf for the fault of not loving and
honoring your tender heart more fervently. Dear Mother, bind and unite me to
your Son, so that I may become entirely His, as He desires me to be.
