Preparation for Holy Communion with Mary in the Spirit of Blessed de Montfort

Did you know that St. Louis-Marie de Montfort said God revealed a secret to him that helps you grow closer to Jesus in Holy Communion more than any other devotion?

He wrote:

"Predestinate soul, here is a secret the Most High has taught me, which I have not been able to find in any book, old or new. I confide it to you, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit" ("The Secret of Mary", \#1).

Elsewhere, he stated:

"But always remember that the more you allow Mary to act in your Communion, the more Jesus will be glorified" ("True Devotion to Mary", \#273).

In this book, Montfort Father Jean-Marie Texier shows you to use this secret to prepare for Holy Communion with Mary. He puts this secret in such easy reach for everyone, that the Montfort Fathers called him "a remarkable spiritual writer."

The Holy Spirit summed up the first thirty years of Jesus' life in one sentence:

"And He was subject to them" (Lk. 2:51).

That's why St. Louis declared:

"He gave more glory to God His Father during all that time of submission and dependence to our Blessed Lady than He would have given Him if He had employed those thirty years in working miracles, in preaching to the whole earth, and in converting all men, seeing that His heavenly Father and Himself had ruled it thus: "I always do the things which please Him." Oh, how highly we glorify God, when, after the example of Jesus, we submit ourselves to Mary!" (True Devotion, \#139)

Since God revealed this devotion to him, St. Louis assures you that it

"is a path trodden by Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, our sole Head. One of His members in passing by the same road cannot deceive himself" (True Devotion, \#168).

Jesus' Sacred Heart is a human heart, with human emotions and human feelings. Jesus experienced both joy and sadness.

And since He's our Model for living this devotion to His Mother, nothing would give His Sacred Heart more joy than to see you imitating His devotion to Mary, because He said, "I have given you an example, that as I have doneso you do also" (Jn. 13:15).

How could He not rejoice at seeing you live the devotion about which St. Louis said:

"I have never found a practice of devotion to Our Lady more solid than this one, since it takes its inspiration from the example of Jesus Christ. Neither have I found any devotion which redounds more to God's glory, is more salutary to the soul, and more feared by the enemies of our salvation; nor, finally, have I found a devotion that is more attractive and more satisfying" ("The Love of Eternal Wisdom", Ch. 17, \#2).

And

"This devotion to our Blessed Lady is also a secure way to go to Jesus, and to acquire perfection by uniting us to Him" (True Devotion, \#159).

When Jesus said, "Abide in Me" (Jn. 15:4), He wanted that to happen as soon as possible.

Since God revealed this devotion to him, St. Louis emphasized that it's the best way for you to make it happen:

"This devotion to the Blessed Virgin is a short road to find Jesus Christ, both because it is a road which we do not stray from, and because, as I have said, it is a road we tread with joy and ease, and, by consequence, with speed. We make more progress in a brief period of submission to and dependance on Mary than in whole years of our own will and of relying upon ourselves" (True Devotion, \#155).

And

"It is a short road, which leads us to Jesus in a little time" (True Devotion, \#168).

God tells us: "He that is holy, let him be sanctified still" (Apoc. 22:11).

So, when it comes to your sanctification, this isn't something He wants you to put off until later.
