A GREAT LIGHT

PRAYER PAUSE        


Tuesday 22 August 2017, Mary Queen


A GREAT LIGHT


Pause. Enter into the stillness of God within.


Reading: “The people who walked in darkness has seen a great light.” (Isaiah 9:1-6)



Reflection. Eight days after the Assumption the Church celebrates the glory of Mary in heaven. It is a moment to ponder her participation in the mission of her Son, her triumph and her power. Esther had saved her people by interceding with the king and Mary now continually intercedes for the people of God on their journey, Her total acceptance of God’s plan for his people has led to her becoming the one who manifests now what the Church is and will become fully in the future. With reverence and love we turn to her.    


Prayer. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you … Pray for us now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
