Quote/s of the Day – 15 February – Feast of The Immaculate Heart of Mary, Refuge of Sinners
Heart of Mary, Refuge of Sinners, Pray for Us!
(Indulgence 300 days)
Sweet Heart of Mary, be my salvation.
(1943 Raccolta – Indulgence 300 days)
“Mary will certainly save repentant sinners
who have recourse to her
but she cannot pay any attention to hardened sinners, who pray to her with their lips,
while their hearts remain steeped in sin.
We must have complete confidence in her
but, we must also have a sincere intention
of raising ourselves under her protection,
from the slavery of sin,
to the friendship of God.”
“Mary, my merciful Mother,
you see how wretched I am
and how often I have fallen.
I wish to reform and sanctify myself
but I am not able without your powerful assistance, the weakness of my nature
is an insurmountable obstacle.
Come to my aid, O Mother of mercy.
Obtain for me, forgiveness f
rom your Divine Son.
Obtain for me too, the grace
of a complete change of heart,
so that I may be truly your child
here upon the earth and share
in your glory in Heaven.
Amen.”
Antonio Cardinal Bacci (1881-1971)
