Seven Sorrows Meditations

October 11, 1996
The Seven Sorrows

From Our Lady
1. The Prophecy of Simeon.
“If I had allowed the knowledge of Simeon’s prophecy to pierce My Heart over and over, I would have re-lived Jesus’ passion over and over. I prayed for the grace to be at peace in the present moment.”


2. The Flight into Egypt
“Though this was a hardship, our flight from Herod portrays God’s provision amidst adversity.”


3. Losing the Child Jesus in the Temple
“When you seek My Son, you too will find Him in the temple of your heart.”


4. The Meeting of Jesus and Mary on the Way of the Cross.
“I embraced Him in My Heart as I saw Him suffering under the weight of the cross. You too must embrace Him in your hearts in the Blessed Sacrament. Do not leave His Love unattended.”


5. The Crucifixion

“As I watched My Beloved Son draw His last breaths, I prayed He would persevere to the end. You must pray for the grace of final perseverance.”


6. The Taking Down of the Body of Jesus from the Cross
“I sorrowed that more would not benefit from His death. I sorrowed for those who would not turn away from sin. I continue to sorrow for this.”


7. The Burial of Jesus
“I dressed His wounds. I arranged His Hands. I grieved. I gave Him to the world and the world rejected Him. Pray for those who still reject Him.”

Meditations for Sorrowful Mother Shrine

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.”

Present Day Seven Sorrows of Blessed Mother’s Heart

1. Hearts of unbelievers – most especially those who propagate error.

2. Misuse of authority – politically or ecclesiastically.

3. Disrespect for human life from conception to natural death.

4. The obtuse conscience of the heart of the world in discernment of sin, and the difference between good and evil.

5. Lack of respect for personal holiness.

6. Neglect of love of God and neighbor.

7. Mankind’s indifference towards his own salvation.
