Today's Saint: Juan Diego

Hear and let it penetrate into your heart, my dear little son: Let nothing discourage you, nothing depress you. Let nothing alter your heart or your countenance. Also, do not fear any illness or vexation, anxiety or pain. Am I not here who am your mother? Are you not under my shadow and protection? Am I not your fountain of life? Are you not in the folds of my mantle, in the crossing of my arms? Is there anything else that you need? ~Words of Our Lady of Guadalupe to St. Juan Diego, Dec. 12, 1531

Dear Mary, Virgin of Advent and Our Lady of Guadalupe, hold me close in the crossing of your arms for with you I have all I that could ever want or need -- Jesus, the fruit of your womb! Amen!
