LUKE I,42

 

DON’T DELAY CONFESSION ANY LONGER!!!

 The devil takes away your shame when you commit a sin, and gives it all back when you get in line at the confessional to stop you from making a good confession and thus rendering it invalid and sacrilegious or so that you defer it indefinitely and live in mortal sin risking your eternal salvation. Make a good confession and do it often. It is crazy to risk your eternal destiny by living weeks, months and even years without going to confession.

THE ONE WHO IS ALL EYES

 Mary is all eyes to pity and help us. Saint Epiphanius calls the Blessed Mother “many-eyed,” because she is ever on the watch to help all poor creatures in this world. Once a possessed person, while being exorcised, was asked by the exorcist what Mary does. The devil in him replied: “She descends and ascends.” By that he meant that Our Lady is constantly coming down from heaven to bring graces to men and going up again to obtain divine favor for our prayers. Saint Andrew of Avellino fittingly calls the Blessed Virgin the “heavenly messenger,” for she is constantly carrying messages of mercy and obtaining graces for everybody, for the good and for sinners. God has his eyes on the good, according to David: The eyes of the Lord are on the just (Ps 33:16). But, according to Richard of Saint Lawrence, the eyes of Mary are on the good and on sinners. Her eyes are the eyes of a mother; and a mother not only keeps an eye on her child to see that it does not fall down, but when it does fall, she picks it up again.
