I will be going on my meditative summer break soon. How soon? I'm not sure yet.

I've been considering writing a meditative book on Mary, as the Living Temple of the Lord. However, I think I should focus on the basics first. My plan is to first, do a line-by-line meditation on the Our Father, the Hail Mary, and the Glory be, and then, start a meditative read-through of both the Bible, and the Catechism. It is when I do my meditative read-through of the Bible and Catechism, that I will consider writing the book. I would like prayers that, if writing the book is a good idea, the Holy Spirit will prompt me to write it, if not, the Holy Spirit will prompt me to focus on my prayerful read-through.

best to do the read-through first and let the Holy Spirit open both Catechism and the Bible to you, and make notes as you go.
The book on Mary is a good idea in the short term, but the read-through will yield priceless treasures of wisdom that can be used as well as re-examined for deeper understanding over the space of a lifetime.
