Helping you to meditate on the life of Blessed Virgin Mary. The short meditations are intended especially for the Month of May or October, though they may be used at any time with profit, particularly in connection with novenas and the celebration of the feasts of Our Lady. They are founded on the chief incidents in the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary as recorded in Holy Scripture, or handed down by tradition. Each of them is broken up into three heads or points, intended to furnish, directly or indirectly, some practical suggestion to the devout servant of Mary.

If, therefore, you are tossed to and fro on the stormy ocean of this world, do not turn away your eyes from this resplendent star, lest you perish in the tempest. If the winds of temptation blow, if you are in danger of being dashed against the rocks of adversity, look at the star, call upon Mary. If the waves of pride, of ambition, of detraction, of anger, of avarice, or lust, threaten your soul, call upon Mary. If, troubled at the sight of your manifold sins, frightened at the thought of the just Judge, you begin to sink into the abyss of sorrow and despair, think of Mary. In all dangers, in all your trials, invoke Mary. Let her name be on your lips, let her memory be in your heart. If you follow her, you will not go astray; if you trust in her, you will not be disappointed; if she takes care of you, you need not fear; if she protects you. and intercedes for you, you will safely arrive at the haven of eternal felicity." - F.X. Lasance - PS: Please pray for holy souls in Purgatory and also for the developer as he continues to develop Catholic apps. ## Key features - Daily meditations on Mary's life - Based on scripture and tradition - Practical suggestions for devotion - Lite version with odd-numbered days - Full version available for even-numbered days ## Recent user reviews (4 of 4) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/life-of-mary-lite-catholic-meditations-for-every-day-in-a-month/id516574414/reviews.md ### 5/5 — Re: All of Mr. Leonard's Apps *2020-08-05* I downloaded all of your apps that I could find ~ Love Them All!
