As we await the Holy Easter Vigil, we contemplate Our Lady of Sorrows in Her solitude.
The Blessed Virgin Mary suffers depths of sorrow that we cannot even imagine. This is so, because She is without Sin and is totally united to Jesus Christ. It is also because the One Who has died is Her Son. He is the God-Man. The most beautiful, innocent and perfect.
She has compassion on Her Son and on His Church which appears to be in the tomb in our times.
Our Lady has compassion on her children when all abandon them in the pain of their own grief and suffering.
Let us approach Her in prayer and gently ask for the permission and grace to enter into Her Holy Compassion this day.
Our Lady is also the great model of Faith found in the Gospels. Throughout the darkness of suffering, She continues to believe with hope.
Let us ask Her to increase our faith in Christ and His Resurrection, to deepen our hope for the resurrection of the Church and to obtain the grace of conversion to the Faith for all those we love.
