...to Sr. Mariana de Jesus Torres in Quito, Ecuador.
Two years after Sr. Mariana made her vows, God showed her a way to pray and meditate that would bring her quickly to sanctity. Each morning had its own particular focus on an element of the Passion. In the afternoon the meditations focused on self examination and the four last things (Taken from the biography by Msgr. Luis Cadena y Almeida) The program reminds me very much of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. Think of the progress a soul could make who committed just ten minutes in the morning and ten minutes in the afternoon to follow this spiritual method recommended by God Himself. I'm going to start this tomorrow morning when I go for my adoration Holy Hour. Why not join me. Our Lady of Good Success, help us to make a true success of Lent by growing closer to your Son Jesus.
