A Special Blessing From A Friend!


 I am enclosing the pictures I took for you on the last day of my pilgrimage in Milan, Italy. There are 3 photos: one shows the actual candle for Carlos, the other shows the context of where these candles are underneath an image of Mary, and the third shows the outside of the actual Duomo, which is the second largest Catholic cathedral in the world.
Mary gave us the gift of Christ and only Mary has the heart of a mother. You must rest in Mary's lap, in the fold of her garment, and allow yourself to rest there. God has seen you and knows your torment. "Behold your mother," he said to John, remember?  Place Carlos in her loving arms. Rest in her love.  She knows. Here is a prayer I love.

The Book Mark Prayer … St. Teresa of Avila
Let nothing disturb you.
Let nothing afrighten you.
All things are passing.
God alone is changeless
He who has patience wants for nothing
He who has God has all things.
God alone suffices.

Your friend,
Marianne
