January 3, 2020 Reflection – The Most Holy Name of Jesus

January 3, 2020
Most Holy Name of Jesus

Dear Family of Mary!

January 2, 2009 “Dear children, while great heavenly grace is being lavished upon you, your hearts remain hard and without response. My children, why do you not give me your hearts completely? I only desire to put in them peace and salvation, my Son. With my Son your souls will be directed to noble goals and you will never get lost. Even in greatest darkness you will find the way. My children, decide for a new life with the name of my Son on your lips. Thank you.”

With the name of Jesus on our lips, we can go through life in strength and peace. This feast day is very important and beautiful!  Let’s pray this Litany of the Holy Name of Jesus today, and allow the Name of Jesus to be always in our hearts and on our lips.

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
