Short Meditations for School Children 27
6. She had a constant ache in her heart since the prophecy of Simeon.
7. Song: See the Eyes that Look at Mary
8. She looked at the Baby Jesus. She held Him in her arms. All through
their life together, she knew His Heart. There was such love from the
moment of conception between her and her Son. There was such intimacy
between the Heart of Jesus and the heart of Mary.
9. Dear Mary, you knew the Heart of your beloved Son Jesus. Please lead
us to closer intimacy with Him. It is in loving Him through your pure
and tender heart that I too will love Him more tenderly.
10. Let us love, through your heart, our beloved Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple
1. How the heart of Mary knew the Heart of Jesus! How the heart of
Mary suffered at every sorrow. How she suffered when they lost the
Child Jesus in the temple.
2. Mary wants us to pray for her little lost children of the world.
3. “It happened that, three days later, they found him in the Temple, sitting
among the teachers, listening to them, and asking them questions;
and all those who heard him were astounded at his intelligence and his
replies.” (Lk. 2:46-47)
4. When His parents saw Him “…his mother said to him, ‘My child, why
have you done this to us? See how worried your father and I have been,
looking for you.’” (Lk. 2:48)
5. “He went down with them then and came to Nazareth and lived
under their authority. His mother stored up all these things in her
heart.” (Lk. 2:51)
6. She was His Mother. She took care of Him. She knew Him with a
deep, motherly love in her heart.
7. We must pray to the Child Jesus. He will answer our prayers.
8. She begs us to pray for her lost children so that they will not be condemned
to hell for their sinfulness and willfulness. Mary says at Fatima,
“I am the Lady of the Rosary. I have come to warn the
faithful to amend their lives and to ask pardon for their
sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is
already too grievously offended by the sins of men. People
must say the Rosary. Let them continue saying it every
day.” 21
9. We must spread the love of Jesus to the world and help spread the rosaries
about the Hearts of Jesus and Mary to the children and the adults.
10. Hail Mary…
