Book excerpt: "I am totally yours, and all that I have is yours." - St. Louis de Montfort Amidst the Nazi occupation of Poland and long days in forced labor at a quarry and chemical plant, young Karol Wojtyla - the man who would become Pope John Paul II - made a discovery that would change his life. He read the 18th century spiritual writings of St. Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort and prayed St. Louis' thirty-three days of preparation for total consecration to Jesus through Mary. He understood anew that the purpose of a true devotion to Mary is to be directed into a deeper relationship with Jesus and the Holy Trinity. The consecration so marked his life that he would adopt St. Louis' phrase Totus Tuus (Latin for "Totally Yours") as his motto as bishop and later as pope. Saint John Paul II's adoption of this radical commitment to Jesus through Mary ignited a new flame in the hearts of countless Catholics all over the world. This fresh look at Marian consecration takes the themes and structures of St. Louis de Montfort's preparation for total consecration and incorporates the teachings and insight of Saint John Paul II, including prayer, contemplation, and resolutions that will open your heart to the life of the Holy Trinity. Through these thirty-three days of spiritual exercises you will discover how you can grow closer to Jesus through the heart of Mary, while becoming the very best version of yourself in a life of consecration.

Download or read book Totus Tuus Maria Personal Consecration to Our Lady Following the Spiritual Teaching of St Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort written by Florian Kolfhaus and published by Gracewing. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope St John Paul II chose Totus Tuus as his apostolic motto. A Latin phrase meaning 'totally yours', it expressed his personal Consecration to Mary, based on the spiritual teaching of Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort and the Mariology of his writings. The saintly pontiff defined it as an expression of piety but also of devotion, deeply rooted in the Mystery of the Blessed Trinity. St Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort showed that there is a sure, quick, and easy way that leads to Jesus Christ; this way is Mary. In Totus Tuus, Maria, commissioned by the Institutum Marianum of Regensburg (IMR) and first published in German in 2002, Mgr Florian Kolfhaus recovers the intention of St Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort, and presents it to the readers of our day and age in a timely fashion. This text invites the reader to follow this path to sanctity. It does not require simply to be read, but it needs to be prayed and meditated on in order to lead, step by step, to the consecration to Mary. Whoever offers himself up to Mary through this consecration to her, seeks shelter under the protective mantle of the Virgin, as Jesus Christ Himself did, and tries to model his life according to her example of charity and love of God. Is there something more perfect that we can do in our earthly life and for our eternal salvation? The reader will then become part of the communion of those whom the book presents in nine short biographies: the saints. Saints, like Pope St John Paul II, who have found the fullness of life in Jesus Christ through consecration to Mary.
Download or read book True Devotion to Mary With Preparation for Total Consecration written by Catholic Way Publishing and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Treatise on the True Devotion on the Blessed Virgin or True Devotion to Mary is considered the greatest book on the Blessed Virgin Mary ever written and has been recommended and practiced by eight Popes. This is the original "scrupulously faithful" translation by Father Frederick William Faber. The great Marian Pope, Blessed Pope John Paul II practiced this Devotion to Mary, in his Letter to the Monfort Fathers he says: "A work destined to become a classic of Marian spirituality was published 160 years ago. St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort wrote the Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin at the beginning of the 1700s, but the manuscript remained practically unknown for more than a century. When, almost by chance, it was at last discovered in 1842 and published in 1843, the work was an instant success, proving extraordinarily effective in spreading the "true devotion" to the Most Holy Virgin. "When we praise her, love her, honor her or give anything to her, it is God who is praised, God who is loved, God who is glorified, and it is to God that we give, through Mary and in Mary (Treatise on True Devotion, n. 225)." Included is a supplementary 33-Day Preparation for Total Consecration. Paintings are by Bartolome Esteban Murillo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope John Paul II worked many miracles while still on earth... Ask a priest who was ordained during the pontificate of Pope John Paul II, "How did you come to know God was calling you?" Chances are, the answer will have something to do with John Paul himself. Living Miracles tells the true stories of some of these "spiritual sons" of John Paul. You'll meet a priest who underwent a "second conversion" after concelebrating Mass with the Pope. Another who had his first life-changing brush with spiritual greatness when Cardinal Karol Wojtyla went kayaking on a modest Michigan lake. And one who knew he was called to the Catholic priesthood when, through the confusion of a teeming crowd, a remarkably peaceful Pope John Paul met his gaze and held it. These stories are sure to excite and reassure every Catholic who prays for the "JP2 priests" in our midst - while praying for their example to inspire a new crop of great men to heroic lives of joyful sacrifice and service.
