A Novena for the Annunciation – Day 2 – Mary, Cause of Our Joy Rejoice!

Day 2: Mary, Cause of Our Joy Rejoice! The Lord is with you. (Luke I:28) Let us pray: Lord God, You were pleased to bring joy to the world through the incarnation of Your Son. You sacrificed Your Son in order to save our souls and enjoy life everlasting. Grant that we, who honor His Mother, the cause of our joy, may always walk in the way of Your commandments with our hearts set on true and lasting joy. Moreover, grant us the grace to share that joy found deep in the words and actions of Mary with everyone we meet. Show us the true joy of living the gospel life – even in our deepest suffering – for You have given Mary the power of helping the miserable. Father of mercy and God of all consolation, grant in Your loving kindness that we who joyfully venerate Mary, as our comforter, may deserve to enjoy the unending happiness of heaven with her. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. The post A Novena for the Annunciation – Day 2 – Mary, Cause of Our Joy Rejoice! appeared first on Discerning Hearts Catholic Podcasts.
