Mother of God and Our Mother | A Homily by St. Josemaria

All the feasts of Our Lady are great events, because they are opportunities that the Church gives us to show with deeds that we love Mary. But if I had to choose one among all her feasts, I would choose today’s, the feast of the divine Motherhood of the Blessed Virgin.

DAY SEVEN 
“Lead a life worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.” (1 Thessalonians 2:12) 
REFLECTION | Friends of God, no. 10 
“I wish to continue this conversation with Our Lord with an observation I made use of years ago, but which is just as relevant today. I had noted down some remarks of St Teresa of Avila: 'All that passes away and is not pleasing to God, is worth nothing, and less than nothing.' Now do you understand why a soul loses all sense of peace and serenity when it turns away from its goal, and forgets that it was created by God to be a saint? Strive never to lose this supernatural outlook, not even at times of rest or recreation, which are as important in our daily lives as is work itself. You can climb to the top of your profession, you can gain the highest acclaim as a reward for your freely chosen endeavors in temporal affairs; but if you abandon the supernatural outlook that should inspire all our human activities, you will have gone sadly astray.” 
PRAYER TO ST. JOSEMARIA

Our Father… 
Hail Mary… 
Glory be… 
St. Josemaria, pray for us!
