 Greetings in Jesus and Mary....
Blessed Feast Day of the Holy Name of Mary! Today the Church celebrates the Memorial of the Holy Name of Mary, a feast that has its origins in Spain in 1513. Pope Innocent XI decreed that it be observed by the entire Church in 1683 following a victory of the Polish army against the Turks, who were besieging Vienna at the time. That victory effectively saved the West from Turkish conquest. The Polish army attributed the success of their campaign to Our Lady after they won the final battle on this date back in 1683. May we give prayers of thanksgiving to the Eternal Father for giving us such a good and holy Mother! Star of the Sea is truly the best meaning of the name Mary! She is the one who guides us on this turbulent sea of life that we are traveling on. If we don't ask the "Star of the Sea" to guide us to the shore of Heaven.....to Her Son Jesus Christ.....it will be a very rough journey without Her! Also, Mary would want us to mention the Holy Name of Jesus...God the Father exalted Jesus and bestowned on Him the Name above every other name, so that at Jesus' name every knee must bend in the heavens and on the earth and under the earth, and every tongue proclaim to the glory of God the Father: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD! The casting out of the devil in exorcism is always done in the name of Jesus! Below is a short clip of Bishop Fulton Sheen giving us the three weapons against Satan. May we use them daily...multiple times a day in our practice of the presence of God! Before I end this.....may we pray for the family of Charlie Kirk....his wife and two children that they may be given such holy peace and supernatural graces to go forward without his physical presence. I have been praying to Our Lady to be at his side at his particular Judgement before I found out that he spoke of our Blessed Mother (even as a Protestant). (Link below). May he rest in peace and may God richly reward him for the good he has done in his short life (which is more than many men who live into their 80's accomplish). God has allowed this tragedy and can make good of all things....may we pray for good to come from this sad and tragic event! Mary, Star of the Sea and Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!
