October Devotion: A Month With Mary

Day 1    GOD CHOOSED MARY-THE ANNUNCIATION

HYMN

OPENING PRAYER:                       Let us pray.  

       

    Almighty Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, You have revealed the beauty of Your power        by exhalting the lowly virgin of Nazareth and making her the mother of our saviour. May the prayers of this woman bring Jesus to a waiting world and fill the void of incompletion with the presence of her child, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever. 

People.    Amen

The Annunciation

 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was        sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. And he came to her and said, “Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you.”^[ But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David.He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I am a virgin?” The angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be holy; he will be called Son of God. And now, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month for her who was said to be barren. For nothing will be impossible with God.” Then Mary said, “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.

REFLECTION

We are grateful to For sending the Redeemer and grateful to Mary for her "Yes".

JESUS LOVES HIS CHURCH.

In fulfillment of the promise he made when he said "Lo, I am with you till the end of time", our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has left for the Church avenues in which each believer meets him to experience the same healings, blessings and assistance He himself has performed over 2017 years ago.

Jesus The Good Shepherd

  This the Catholic Church calls " Sacraments "
              WHAT THEN ARE THESE SACRAMENTS?

The Church teaches that Sacraments are external signs perceptible to the eyes, but which conveys message to the onlookers that something spiritually is happening in the life of the recipient at the time the action is taking place.
Simply put, Sacraments could be said to be "Outward signs of inward graces made by the Lord Jesus Christ himself.

The word "Sacrament" which means "secret or mystery" (Wisdom 2:22; Ephesians 1:9), is God's own way of dealing with the people created in His own image and according to His own likeness (Gen. 1:26)
They are therefore seven meeting points with Jesus where he blesses each believer and gives him  the corresponding grace that enables him live a Godly life.
The Catechism of The Catholic Church (CCC) teacher that; Sacraments are powers that comes forth from the body of Jesus Christ. (Luke 5:1-7; 6:19; 8:46), which is everlasting and life-giving.
