Father consecrated me after Mass today to the Immaculate Heart. It’s been a huge change.
Today, while driving to the supermarket, I was struck by truly feeling the Sacred Heart in me. I felt peaceful, felt my temptations being kept at bay and I began to understand things about Jesus that I never did.
I began to understand the nature of His ministry on Earth. I began to understand how to be a strong man of love who saves others and sacrifices for others because he loves. I began to truly understand and accept self sacrifice.
Sacrifice as the heart of Jesus’s ministry and that of our faith.
Another thing that happened today was that I finally began to read Saint Louis de Montfort’s True Devotion to Mary. Wow. It’s good stuff.
The only problem is that my mind, as it sometimes does; gets so caught up in an obsessive cycle that did quite a number on me that I stopped and took a nap from the stress. Maybe that’s the devil, knowing the value of this book; was really doing his best to get me to stop reading. As soon as I finish this post; I’m heading right back into it.
The only question I have is: As a consecrated man, do I have any special obligations, duties or any other such things to bear in mind?
I’d appreciate any advice. Thank you and God bless you all.
