Mornings with Mary and Sacred Shrines

Mother of God

similar to fire,

ignite my heart in prayer

Where once I stood on familiar ground,

selecting my spiritual experiences

like choice morsels from a well-tended larder,

now my garden has gone up in flames

and I thirst only for the Living God

Let me swallow the Sacred

and burn with that Presence,

illuminating a way home to the Truth.

Lit from within,

let my blazing heart become a sanctuary

for the weary traveller,

until this long night lifts

and dawn unfolds her new radiance

And so we start the week with

Mornings with Mary

May you find inspiration in the burnt garden and the regeneration

offered by the Sacred Heart of Blessed Mary
