Day 14 of the
Consecration to Mary
"..My angel, prayer is the foundation in the center of the consecration. In the union of prayer God may manifest Himself to the soul to teach and guide in a specific way. It is by prayer that we may bring His will of us into focus.
The center of preparation for the
consecration is a union of prayer. Prayer is to be a constant communion between
the soul and God. It is what shall allow solitude to caress the soul deeply.
Pray for all things to be given to you from His hand, to unburden your heart,
to bring tranquility and quiet. When your soul has found the depths of
solitude, it is then that God may write upon your heart..."3-18-93
GUIDANCE: The purpose of the consecration is to unite ourselves
inseparably to Our Lady. She in turn, comes to unite every soul to her Son,
whose purpose is to bring salvation to mankind. All Our Lady shall do, is to
bring about her donation to the mission of her Son - the plan of salvation.
Only by her part in His plan, was she designed to follow the same flow of grace
that comes from Him who sends her. In Our Lady was created that comes from Him
who sends her. In Our Lady was created the way to fulfill this plan; she was
given the position of co-redemptrix. All that she will ask, is to fulfill the
purpose of God's plan. Our Lady's role is indeed the fulfillment of her
co-redeeming value in the whole plan of God. The Triumph of Her Immaculate
Heart is also the fulfillment of her place as co-redeemer. The consecration to
her heart shall lay the foundation of our soul to collaborate with the entire
global plan of God.
DIRECTION: Our Lady reminds us that the soul who shall find
her, shall find a life filled with grace and eternal glory. Just as she is
called the "Star of the Sea", patroness to guide ships into port, so
she guides our soul through her Immaculate portal to the heart of her Son.
Through her intercession, our prayers, petitions and intentions are directed
towards heaven in a special way. The power of her intercession is so great in
the manner of a command, that it is impossible that they may not be heard by
her Son nor shall they be rejected. She prays continually for us, and obtains
all the graces for which we petition - for her only desire is our
sanctification. Let us not neglect to have recourse in all our needs to the
divine mother, who is always prepared to assist all who invoke her intercession.
To obtain salvation, it is enough to ask the aid of her prayers. Through our
consecration, we invoke her most powerful intercession, for we contain in this
grace, her very own heart, intertwined with the heart of her Son.
MEDITATION: O'Immaculate Heart of Mary who contains invincible
power, one that can conquer a multitude of sins; nothing can resist your power
since the Savior regards it as His own. Dear Mother who is joined to God in
saving sinners, grant to my soul your great intercession now and at the hour of
my death. I place all my petitions before your feet that you may carry them
into the depths of the heart of Jesus. Defend me in times of afflictions;
protect me in times of despair; take pity on the miseries of my soul. O'Holy
Virgin, Mediatrix of all heavens grace, dwell within my heart.
