The Franciscan Handmaids of the Immaculate seek daily to draw closer to Our Lord. Adoration of the Most Holy Sacrament is fundamental to Our spiritual life as we seek to conform our hearts unto His. Additionally, praying the Liturgy of the Hours, the rosary, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and the Sorrows, we place ourselves in the Immaculate Heart of Mary, asking Her to bring us closer to Her Son.
Author - Sr. Faustina Olson So blessed to be loved by God - and the gift to love Him in return. How awesome is our God! A dear friend brought us a very special surprise before she moved to Florida. We were amazed at this fragile surprise that she very carefully carried to our convent. We remarked that no one has ever given us such a gift!! Perhaps a bit hesitant at first, we were excited to see the whole plan of Our Heavenly Creator come to fruition. It is so remarkable indeed that one can not see this miracle of “rebirth" and not see God behind the extraordinary opus. The magnificence of the Monarch butterfly, emerging from the cocoon is fascinating. It is evidence of God's imprint of Himself in nature - symbolizing Christ's resurrection from the tomb. Jesus emerges from the tomb in a glorified body and soon will take flight to Heaven. The new butterfly flaps and dries his wings for a few hours and then in November, it can take the long flight to the state of Michoacan, not far from Mexico City, where they will stay until the end of March. The butterflies travel in colonies of up to twenty million insects! May God be praised - now and forever! The video below shows the butterfly emerging from the cocoon:
