The
Feast of the Assumption
Apoc. 11:19,12:1-6,10. 1 Cor.
15:20-26. Luke 1:39-56
Praise and glorify the
Father in all things past
and present and in all things
still to be fulfilled. Identify
with His most glorious will
and loving purpose for all
within His world and in
the whole of His creation.
Realise and understand the
Father's love from the beginning
for all His sons and daughters
whom He has created for
the joy of being and of
sharing in the challenge
of creating through what
they are and do and through
commitment to the total
cosmic operation. Trace
the Father's loving kindness
in creation and in raising
men and women in all times
and places to understand
and , through their free
co-operation - to lead the
children of His love to
fulfilment in the power
of Our saving, sanctifying
love. Pray for all who have
rejected this great challenge
and for those weak in commitment
and in purpose. Regard the
life and pattern of the
gracious, humble and obedient
woman who became the Mother
of the Word Incarnate and
Incarnate Love. She was
My guardian and My human
counsellor in early years,
present at My death, the
first to understand the
power and meaning of redemption.
Now she ceaselessly offers
her Beloved Son to the loving
Heavenly Father - the only
perfect human offering ever
made . And ceaselessly she
prays for every child of
man and - through the power
of Our saving, sanctifying
love - seeks to build, restore,
and bring along the way
each one as each responds
in love and faithfulness.
