May 31, 2008 “Visit Us, O Blessed Mother!”
I hope to catch up on my blogging soon, but here is a prayer I wrote for the feast of our Lady of the Visitation, which we celebrate today:
O Blessed Virgin Mary, Holy Mother of God, for nine months you were the Ark of the Covenant and the Tabernacle of the Most High. Everywhere you travelled, you carried Jesus Christ with you. I ask you to watch over me today with you maternal love. Protect me from all harm. Through your intercession may Jesus your Son form in me a pure, humble and obedient heart. At the hour of my death, come in haste to visit me with your Son, that my heart and soul may leap for joy and find lasting peace. Amen.
Our Lady of the Visitation, Pray for us.
