Meditations for Sorrowful Mother Shrine

Message from Blessed Virgin Mary given to Visionary Maureen Sweeney-Kyle in North Ridgeville, USA

Our Lady is here as Refuge of Holy Love. She says: "Praise be Jesus. I have promised you meditations on My Sorrows which will be placed around the Lake of Tears. Let us proceed."

1. THE PROPHECY OF SIMEON

I invite you to meditate upon My knowledge of all future Sorrow which was given to Me by God at the Presentation.

2. THE FLIGHT INTO EGYPT

I invite you to meditate upon the anxiety in the hearts of Joseph and Myself for the safety of Baby Jesus and the anxiety I feel today for those who run from salvation.

3. THE LOSS OF THE CHILD JESUS IN THE TEMPLE

I invite you to meditate upon the pain of separation I felt when Jesus was lost. This is a pain all should feel when they separate themselves from My Son through sin.

4. THE MEETING OF JESUS AND MARY ON THE WAY OF THE CROSS

I invite you to meditate upon the pain of My Heart as I saw the physical pain My Son suffered due to lack of love in hearts. Also think of the pain I suffer today for lack of love in hearts.

5. THE CRUCIFIXION

I invite you to meditate upon the pain of a Mother's heart at the death of Her Son, and the virtue of forgiveness I received through grace and prayer. Think of My pain at the sight of the death of the unborn.

6. THE TAKING DOWN OF THE BODY OF JESUS FROM THE CROSS

I invite you to meditate upon the acceptance of Divine Will that I surrendered to. Ask for that same grace in your life now.

7. THE BURIAL OF JESUS

I invite you to meditate upon the understanding I had as My Son was placed in the tomb, that death was a beginning and not an end. Think of the extreme sorrow I felt as I cleansed His Wounds. My sorrow was, as it is today, for the lack of love in hearts.

"After each meditation please recite a Hail Mary."
