Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Wednesday, September 15, 2010

Standing near the cross of Jesus [was] His Mother.
-
John 19:25

Reflection: During the entire course of her life, the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, never deviated in the slightest from the precepts and examples of her Divine Son. This was true both in the most sweet joys Mary experienced and the cruel sufferings she underwent, which made her the Queen of Martyrs.
-
Pope Pius XII

Prayer: Lord Jesus, in all my sorrows let me imitate the fidelity of Your holy Mother. And through her intercession grant me Your consolation here and eternal joy in heaven.
