“Shake off all earthly things, counting them useless, noxious, and hurtful to thee.”~Saint Albert The Great CONSECRATION TO MARY An act of devotion, promoted by St. Louis de Montfort (1673-1716), that consists of the entire gift of self to Jesus through Mary. It is, moreover, a habitual attitude of complete dependence on Mary in one’s whole life and activity. In making the act of consecration, a person gives himself or herself to Mary and through her to Jesus as her slave. This means that a person performs good works as one who labors without wages, trustfully hoping to receive food and shelter and have other needs satisfied by the master, to whom one gives all one is and does, and on whom one depends entirely in a spirit of love. (Marian consecration definition by Fr. John Hardon’s Modern Catholic Dictionary) “Voluntary poverty restores to man the nobility of his condition, liberating him from vile servitude and reinstating him his noble freedom and mastery of all things. The soul is never more a mistress than when she despises them, and only then has she the more firm possession and makes the more excellent use of riches, when she gives them away or leaves them of her own free will; only then her appetite for them is best satiated, when she does not care to possess them. Then above all is the heart set free and made capable of the treasures of the Divinity, for which it is furnished by the Creator with almost infinite capacity.” ~Ven. Mary of Agreda, Mystical City of God p. 85 Radiating the Immaculata Meditation “Through the Immaculata to the Divine Heart of Jesus: that is our watchword. ‘Through the Immaculata’: that is our essential feature, that is, as instruments in her hand…. We want to radiate the Immaculata to the point of being able to attract to her even the souls of others, indeed of all those who exist now, who will exist, and may exist in the future, without any limitation.” (KW 1231)~Saint Maximilian Kolbe 1 John 2:15 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition 15 Love not the world, nor the things which are in the world. If any man love the world, the charity of the Father is not in him. “You cannot please both God and the world at the same time. They are utterly opposed to each other in their thoughts, their desires, and their actions.”~St John Vianney © 2026 E2DAY (EZ4EVER). All Rights Reserved *All Lyrics and Concept © 2026 E2DAY (EZ4EVER)*
