Today’s prayer:  “Come, Holy Spirit, living in Mary.  Prepare me to give myself fully to living out this true and solid devotion.”    

Questions for Day 2:  In order for Mary, along with the Holy Spirit, to bring us to Jesus...we need to let go of always trying to do everything ourselves.  What is the first thing that you need to become detached from? Will it be difficult to detach? Will it take time? St. Pope John Paul II read St. Louis’ book “True Devotion to Mary” and called it a decisive turning point in his life.  What one or two books (besides the Bible) have had that kind of influence on your life?  Finally, no less than six Popes were influenced by the teachings of St. Louis de Montfort.  If you had your choice of someone to influence, who would it be and why?
