Week 4 - Night Prayer - Day of Mary Most Holy

G. Oh God, come to reign in us.

E. Lord, let your Will come quickly.

Glory be to the Father...

HYMN Vol. XXXV, December 20, 1936

What unheard-of wonders,
what amazing surprises
and sublime masterpieces
did the Divine Will work
in my heavenly Mother!

Oh, how she disarmed us and made us see
the sky, the sun, the earth
and all creatures covered by,
and hidden in her love!

And what a marvelous and enchanting scene
appears before our eyes,
when, to mother creatures,
she loves us and prays to us
in her own children!

This is why I feel the compelling need
to make these things known to all mankind:
to make everyone understand the great good
that the generations have received from her! Amen.

Ant. How many holinesses were obtained through, formed and safeguarded by the tender love of our heavenly Mother!

Psalm Vol. XXXV, December 20, 1936

You should know that our Divine Will,
which embraces everything with its immensity,
can see all beings, and it always does universal works.

In the act of the conception of the holy Virgin,
the Divine Will called each creature to itself
and made it be conceived in the maternal heart of Mary.
But this still wasn’t enough for our love.

Doing the most incredible thing,
it wanted to deposit in each human creature
the blessed seed of the heavenly Lady,
so that each one would possess a mother all their own,
and enjoy the gentleness of her rule
in the depths of their own soul.

From that moment,
the more than maternal love of the Virgin
put itself at the disposal
of each creature to make it grow,
to guide it, to free it from dangers,
and to nourish it with her own milk
and with the food with which she herself is nourished,
that is, with the food of the divine Fiat.

Our Will, which possessed unimpeded life
and total dominion over the faculties
of this all beautiful and all holy daughter of ours,
wanted all creatures to be enclosed in her,
and that she live in each one of them,
so that it could enjoy the inexpressible joy
of feeling loved by everyone, through her.

After having formed her own seas of love in creatures,
through them she sent us her own notes,
her own loving darts.
She brought all of them before our throne
and with the force of our own Divine Will,
she put them into our arms,
making us caress and kiss them,
and give them surprising graces.

Glory be to the Father….

Ant. How many holinesses were obtained through, formed and
safeguarded by the tender love of our heavenly Mother!

SHORT READING Vol. XXXVI, December 28, 1938

“All of heaven prays, anxiously waiting for the Divine Will to be known and reign. Then the great Queen will do to the children of my Will what she did with her Jesus, and her maternity will have life in her children. I will give up my place in her maternal heart to whoever lives in my Will. She will raise them for me. She will guide their steps, and will hide them in her maternity and holiness. Her maternal love and her holiness will be seen impressed in all their acts. They will be her true children, that will resemble me in everything.”

RESPONSORIAL Vol. XXXVI, December 28, 1938

G. I wish everyone knew that *whoever wants to live in my Will has a
powerful queen and mother.

E. I wish everyone knew that whoever wants to live in my Will has a
powerful queen and mother.

G. She will make up for what they are lacking, and will raise them on her
maternal lap in order to mold all their acts;

E. whoever wants to live in my Will has a powerful queen and mother.

G. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.

E. I wish everyone knew that whoever wants to live in my Will has a
powerful queen and mother.


Ant. Blessed is the soul that lives in the Divine Will; all generations will call it blessed!

Canticle (Spiritual testament of Luisa)

Ant. Blessed is the soul that lives in the Divine Will; all generations will call it blessed!

PRAYER
O Lord, you wanted to reflect all the greatness of your divine paternity in the maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Grant us to live the fullness of our divine sonship and to love you with the same love that she loved you with.
Amen.

May the Lord put an end to the night of the human will, and let us rest in the divine.
Amen.
