5.The Finding in the Temple

After searching for three days, Mary and Joseph find the twelve-year-old Jesus sitting in the Temple discussing the law with the learned doctors. (Luke 2:42-52).

"How is it that you sought Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father's business?"
This is the answer that Jesus gave to His Mother when, after three days' search she had the joy of finding Him in the Temple.
These are the first words coming from the lips of the Word Incarnate to be recorded in the
Gospel.
In these words Jesus sums up His whole person, His whole life, His whole mission. They reveal His Divine Sonship; they testify to His supernatural mission. Christ's whole life will only be a clarifying and magnificent exposition of the meaning of these words.
St. Luke goes on to tell us that Mary "did not understand the word that He spoke." But even if Mary did not grasp the full significance of these words, she did not doubt that Jesus was the Son of God. This is why she submitted in silence to that Divine Will which had demanded such a sacrifice of her love.
"Mary kept these words of Jesus carefully in her heart." She kept them in her heart, for there was the tabernacle in which she adored the mystery concealed in the words of he Son, waiting until the full light of understanding would be granted her.
Home

Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Hail! Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.

Turn then, O most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy towards us, and after this our wxile, show unto us the Blessed Fruit of your womb, Jesus.

O clement! O loving! O sweet Virgin Mary!

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for participating in Mariology/Hagiography's first cooperative Recitation of the Marian Rosary.

St. Mary, Blessed Ever-Virgin, Christokos and Theotokos, Queen of Heaven, and Mother of Love, Hope, and Salvation Incarnate, pray for us.

Pray for the sick and the dying, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the oppressed and the prisoners, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the homeless, poor, hungry, and destitute, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the emotionally suffering and the spiritually suffering, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the weeping and the grieving, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the ostrisized and the banished, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the victims of injustice, hatred, war, and apathy, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the ones seeking truth and God, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the salvation of all Creation, O Virgin Mother
Pray for the healing of souls and the restoring to purity human nature, O Virgin Mother

God has blessed you, O our Mother, to be the primal example of what His Grace can do. To you do we look for the Image of God, for you so cooperated with Grace that you ascended even unto heaven. You are our inspiration of God's Work in us and in all Creation, and we have recited this rosary in honor and in veneration and in hope that we too will live a holy life like you did, in theosic cooperation with the Holy Spirit.

Thank you all. I would appreciate that this thread be closed in one week from today to allow folks a chance to reflect upon the meditations of this rosary, the Virgin, or say an amen.
