I am calling you at this time to prayer… February 1, 2020 Dear Family of Mary! “…I am calling you at this time to prayer…” (01-25-21) The basis of our response to Our Lady is prayer.  Everything will come out of prayer.  Everything makes sense when we pray, because prayer is turning our attention towards God.  Prayer is looking up, lifting our eyes towards heaven and eternity.  Prayer is connecting with our God of Eternity. So let’s pray.  Today I share with you a Litany to the Heart of Mary!  Let this prayer permeate your being with the wonder of Mary! Lord, have mercy on us. Christ, have mercy on us. Lord, have mercy on us. Christ, hear us. Christ, graciously hear us.  God the Father of Heaven, Have mercy on us.

Heart of Mary, like unto the Heart of God, Pray for us. Heart of Mary, united to the Heart of Jesus, Pray for us. Heart of Mary, instrument of the Holy Ghost, Pray for us.

Let Us Pray: O most merciful God, Who, for the salvation of sinners and the refuge of the miserable, wast pleased that the Most Pure Heart of Mary should be most like in charity and pity to the Divine Heart of Thy Son, Jesus Christ, grant that we, who commemorate this sweet and loving Heart, by the merits and intercession of the same Blessed Virgin, may merit to be found like unto the Heart of Jesus, through the same Christ Our Lord.   R. Amen. (This litany was composed by John Henry (Cardinal) Newman shortly after he converted to Catholicism in 1845. Let us pray this with reverence and recall the many blessings that have flowed through Mary from Jesus to us.) In Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! Cathy Nolan ©Mary TV 2021
