Our Lady of Guadalupe! Faith -- Beginning of Eternal Life
Manage episode 352676770 series 3336512
Stacy & Stacy celebrate the beautiful Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe! Thank you, Mother Mary! We discuss the Catechism (163-165) on how FAITH is the beginning of eternal life, that through all the suffering, pain, and darkness, we can look to the cloud of witnesses in the Bible and among the saints to persevere in the race that is set before us.
After tomorrow, Stacy & Stacy are taking a break for the rest of 2022! They have large families and lots going on, plus they have some pretty extensive planning for 2023, including some writing assignments. Have a beautiful Advent, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!

- Lumen gentium - 58. In the public life of Jesus, Mary makes significant appearances. This is so even at the very beginning, when at the marriage feast of Cana, moved with pity, she brought about by her intercession the beginning of miracles of Jesus the Messiah.(291) In the course of her Son's preaching she received the words whereby in extolling a kingdom beyond the calculations and bonds of flesh and blood, He declared blessed those who heard and kept the word of God, as she was faithfully doing. After this manner the Blessed Virgin advanced in her pilgrimage of faith, and faithfully persevered in her union with her Son unto the cross, where she stood, in keeping with the divine plan, grieving exceedingly with her only begotten Son, uniting herself with a maternal heart with His sacrifice, and lovingly consenting to the immolation of this Victim which she herself had brought forth. Finally, she was given by the same Christ Jesus dying on the cross as a mother to His disciple with these words: "Woman, behold thy son".
