Chirstmas a time of love and fullfillment.

Saint Mary is the saint to assist you in the search for the truth. The level of asceticism we develop is dependent on the depth of our search. For the ascetic, Saint Mary is the figure manifesting the wisdom of God. She beckons us to strive to find the kingdom within, showing us how Mary's exemplary nature is found in absolute peace without desire, regardless of what we may see struggling in her arms..

The aim of prayer isn’t simply to have God hear us but for us to hear the sound of God within. There is a vast difference between the prayer of spoken words and the inward prayer of attentive listening and silence. Saint Mary calls us to comprehend what is the breadth, and length and depth and height of Christ’s love active within us.

Prayer gives life, health and nourishment to the soul. The purified mind descends to the heart and there receive the sacrament of inward silence. In this silence, the mind and heart hear the first voice of God with perceive in Christmas, the language of on going unrealized potential first given to Mary.
