Husband of Mary, Patron of Carmel.
Feast Day: 19 March.
Dear brothers and sisters in Carmel,
Lent – a time of contemplating the betrayal, suffering, and crucifixion of our beloved Lord and Master.
The following prayer, from our holy mother St Teresa of Jesus, you may find helpful as we join Jesus in His journey to Calvary:
Most glorious King, You made me in Your divine image and desire that my soul shine brightly like a diamond, gleaming in the bright Sun which radiates from within. Grant me the grac e to look inwardly and to see You dwelling within. Help me, as I begin this journey, to look beyond my sin so that I may see myself as You created me. As I do, help me to also see the sin that darkens the brightness of this castle of my soul.
Indwelling of the Most Holy Trinity, I love You, I trust You, I surrender my life to you.
