Our Lady of Sorrows
Hebrews 5:7-9.John
19:25-27
Realise and understand that suffering
is the obverse side of joy and joy
of suffering. The promise of My
birth to My beloved Mother brought
great joy, the living through My
life and experiencing My death brought
pain and sorrow. But joy unending
is her heritage through all eternity,
for she was the human vessel of
Incarnate Love, witnessing the redeeming
act of her beloved Son and entering
in the joy and glory of His risen
life in time and through eternity.
And you are called to this same
pattern, beloved of the Father:
I speak to one, I speak to every
one. Respond in love and in obedience
to the Father's Word within your
heart and mind. Believe and trust,
and follow where the Suffering Servant
leads you.
