33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 15

Day 15 of 33 Days to Morning Glory Lover of the Heart of Jesus Today we begin to consider the life of Blessed Mother Teresa. Fr. Gaitley tells us that like our Blessed Mother Mary, the deepest desire of Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta was to satiate the thirst of the Heart of Jesus for love and for souls "I Thirst." These two short words are one of the seven last sayings Jesus said from the Cross. They became two of the most important words of Mother Teresa. --Julie Musselman

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 16

Julie Mussleman & Marybeth Finster join Mary Graham for Day 16 of 33 Days to Morning Glory The gift God gave September 10th, 1946 On this day we read that Mother Teresa received a "Call within a Call." This is when she began to contemplate the words of Our Lord from the cross "I thirst." In the letter quoted by Mother Teresa, she shares with us just how much Jesus loves us and how we all need to get to know Jesus so much better and hear Him say to each of us "I thirst." Mother Teresa reminds...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 17

Julie Mussleman & Marybeth Finster join Mary Graham for Day 17 of 33 Days to Morning Glory The Visions of 1947 Mother Teresa saw three visions in 1947 and each of them played a role in her beginning what was to be her life's work. In them, Our Lady played a significant role. Fr. Joseph Langford, MC summarizes in this way,"Without Our Lady, we would be alone before the crosses of life, oblivious to Jesus in our midst." Mother Teresa's message to us is that "Our Lady's role is to bring you fac...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 18

Day 18 of 33 Days to Morning Glory The Immaculate Heart of Mary Many times I don't feel like a very compassionate person, so I love what Fr. Gaitley writes today saying that Mary will give us her compassionate heart, when I give her mine. Mother Teresa's devotion to Mary focused on this exchange of Mary's heart for mine. And Mother Teresa teaches me to pray "Mary, lend me your Immaculate heart." Mary's heart refers to her inner life and the seat of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 19

Day 19 of 33 Days to Morning Glory St. Ignatius of Loyola Heart-Pondering Prayer I love how Fr. Gaitley reveals Mother Teresa's 2 part secret. Part 1, like Mary, ponder all things in my heart Part 2, follow St. Ignatius of Loyola's nightly examen to review the graces and mercies received each day. It is a good use of time to look up footnote 73 beginning on page 187 and read through how to make the examen. --Julie Musselman

In it we read that we give her 12 duties including giving her all we have, placing total dependence on her and being faithful in prayer. Mary's duties to us then include giving us her spirit and heart, possessing and tran...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 21

Day 21 of 33 Days to Morning Glory Be the One (with Mary) In today's meditation, we consider the very essence and summary of Mother Teresa's Covenant Consecration from yesterday. In 5 words it is: Be the One with Mary. We are to be the one to satiate the thirst of Jesus. (I am also reading Fr. Gaitley's book Consoling the Heart of Jesusand in that book he gives a full explanation of being a "consoler" and satiating the thirst of our Lord for souls.) Mother Teresa recognizes that Mary is the one ...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 22

Julie Mussleman & Marybeth Finster join Mary Graham for 33 Days to Morning Glory Day TWENTY-TWO (03/12/15) Mary's Gift of Mercy Today we begin the fourth week of our preparation for Consecration to Jesus through Mary. In the fourth week we will focus on Blessed Pope John Paul the Great, one of my personal heroes. Today we read about the apparitions of Mary in Fatima, Portugal in 1917 and how Our Lady requested that Russia be consecrated to her Immaculate Heart. Pope John Paul II was the Pope...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 23

Day 23 of 33 Days to Morning Glory Maternal Mediation According to the Vatican II document Lumen Gentium Maternal Mediation simply means that Mary is our spiritual mother who assists us from heaven with her prayers and motherly care to help bring us to God. (pg 90) As my own mother died in 2006, I love, love, love that Mary is my spiritual mother. As a mother of six children myself, I love that Mary is my model and exemplar. As much as I love my kids, and try to do everything I can to help them,...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 24

Day 24 of 33 Days to Morning Glory Mary's Retreat (Day One) Mary's vocation to be our spiritual mother was not revealed to her all at once. Just like us, she was a pilgrim of faith. She pondered in her heart all the different things that happened day by day. She had to give her "yes" not just once at the annunciation, but over and over again. So too do we. If anyone feels this book is just giving too much emphasis to Mary, consider what Fr. Gaitley writes on pg 93 quoting Pope John Paul, "for it...

33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 25

Day 25 of 33 Days to Morning Glory Mary's Retreat (Day Two) In today's reading, we continue along in the events of the life of the Blessed Mother. One of the few but powerful words said by Mary, recorded in scripture, are "Do Whatever He Tells You." To me this sums up Marian devotion, she always points us to her son. The words of Pope John Paul II show how much Mary is concerned about our concerns, "her solicitude for human beings." Summarizing Pope John Paul II, Fr. Gaitley points out (pg 97) t...
