Sacred Heart, Day 25
Mary treasured the Word of God in her heart
Luke 2:19 (NJB): As for Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:51 (NJB): His mother stored up all these things in her heart. She constantly followed God's will and never despised His plan. She showed tremendous reverence to God the Almighty. She never misses an opportunity to honour or glorify Him.
Ps 119: 10-11 With all my heart I seek you, do not let me stray from your commandments. 11 In my heart I treasure your promises, to avoid sinning against you. God does not want us to deviate from His commandments or His love. Psalmist is praying and acknowledging that he keeping the Word of God in his heart to avoid sin against God our Lord. Our hearts should be like those of our Savior, Jesus Christ, and Mother Mary, who cherished the Word of God in her heart. Mary gave birth to Jesus Christ, God's only Son, and the Word became flesh through her.
