+JMJ+ Join me Monday, Aug. 15, on Twitter at 8pm ET/7pm CT, to pray the Rosary in honor of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. +JMJ+

Our Lady of the Assumption, pray for us.

Note: No human person has ever been as united to Jesus as His Mother was and is. She carried Him in her womb for nine months. He was her Savior and kept the stain of Original Sin from touching her. He is Divine, she is not. He is the King, she is the Queen Mother.
In the next tweets I'm going to link some videos about the actual teachings of the Catholic Church about the Blessed Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus, since there is so much confusion out there about this.

That should do for starters. There is so much out there on the web for free, good solid Catholic teaching, there really is no excuse for not knowing one's Catholic faith. The Catechism, free, Fathers of the Church, free. Saints, great spiritual writers, free. Read it. Learn!

The teachings about Mary are about Jesus, too, even more so, really. If Mary was stained by Original Sin, what would that mean for Jesus's Incarnation? The New Ark must be spotless to hold the New Covenant, which was Jesus, not mere manna or a staff or tablets of stone.
The New Covenant was Jesus Himself, and the Eucharist, the Mass, long before it came to be thought of as a book.
And speaking of books, to understand the teachings about Jesus and about Mary, one must understand the Old and New Testaments and how they fit together, & how the writers of the NT used the OT, & echoed it. That's not accidental stuff in the Bible.

Prayer of abandonment, by St. Charles de Foucauld.

Father, I abandon myself into your hands; do with me what you will. Whatever you may do, I thank you: I am ready for all, I accept all. Let only your will be done in me...

Re the previous tweet: I know it's not his feast day but I was just reading about him after stumbling across the GoodCatholic site and thought I'd share with y'all.
Also don't miss this one on their YouTube channel. It's a painting I've seen many times online but I've never read or heard an explanation of it that I recall. This one had me in tears.

A 🧵from “How to Get More Out of Holy Communion,” by St Peter Julian Eymard. Links at the end.

“The love of Jesus Christ reaches its highest perfection and produces the richest harvest of graces in the ineffable union He contracts with the soul in Holy Communion.”
“Therefore, by every desire for goodness, holiness, and perfection that piety, the virtues, and love can inspire in us, we are bound to direct our course toward this union, toward frequent and even daily Communion.”
“Since we have in Holy Communion the grace, the model, and the practice of all the virtues, all of them finding their exercise in this divine action, we shall profit more by Communion than by all other means of sanctification.”
