"To live our consecration requires the sacrifice of our own will, so that His will may be done in us. We are asked to become holy and good, to be the example of this for all to witness, to be the light of truth, of simplicity and purity, the true imitation of Our Lady's Immaculate Heart, and the beacons of Christ on the path to sanctification. Through the Immaculate Heart of Mary we are gathered and formed to bring to the world the example of this response to her call. The Triumph of her Immaculate Heart shall bring into our midst the glorious Reign of His Sacred Heart. It is for this purpose, we pledge our consecration."
“There will always be many, like John, who are led to the Mother through the Son; but also many others, like Joseph, who are led to the Son through the Mother. These two movements, which in the beginning are very clearly emphasized in certain individuals, will later be the paths on which many can wander.”
[Adrienne von Speyr, Handmaid of the Lord]
