Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Those who have been following these threads on the little book: “The Love of Eternal Wisdom” will remember my last post ended with a quote from Chapter 2. Those Who have read “True Devotion to the Virgin Mary” would perhaps remember that same verse from Scripture is in True Devotion also
Today, we are invited to ponder, prayerfully asking for God’s Grace to listen to His Holy Spirit teaching us the Truth of His Word, in continuing Chapter 2. Let us “see” and “hear” with our hearts some reflections of Mary - I’d be happy to read your replies:

Come Holy Spirit, kindle in us the Fire of Your Love!
- Then the Creator of the universe commanded me and spoke to me: He who created me rested in my tent.
- And He said to me: “Dwell in Jacob, let Israel be your heritage, and take root in my elect.”
- In the beginning, before all ages, He created me and through the ages I shall never cease to be, and in the holy tabernacle I ministered before Him.
- I fixed my abode in Sion; I found rest in the holy City, and Jerusalem became my domain.
- I took root in the people whom the Lord had honoured, whose heritage is the portion of the Lord. I fixed my abode in the assembly of all the saints.
- Like a cedar on Lebanon and like a cypress on Mount Sion I have grown tall.
- I raised my branches high like a palm-tree in Engedi and like the rose-bushes of Jericho.
- I grew tall like a beautiful olive-tree in the field, like a plane-tree planted along the road near the water.
- I gave forth fragrance like cinnamon or the most precious balm; I gave forth perfume like the most exquisite myrrh.
- I have filled my house with sweet fragrance as of galbanum, onycha, myrrh and with the sweet smell of incense; I exude the scent of the purest balm.
- I spread out my branches like a terebinth and my branches are glorious and graceful.
- I have grown sweet-smelling flowers like the vine; my blossoms are the fruits of glory and wealth.
- I am the mother of pure love, of fear, of knowledge and of holy hope.
