☆ＮＯ ６４ blessing in the morning
Continued on No51. This is my story which is made from the Spirit.
Noon yesterday, Mary met the old rabbi on her way to the well and was rebuked for having a pregnancy before she got married to Joseph.
This happening upset Mary. So, Mary left her waterpot there, back home weeping.
And she spent the time until midnight fasting and praying.
She said, "Oh God, You are my God, for I really will seek You.
my soul thirsts for You, and longs for You throughout the night at a thirsty home where no water is.
So, show me Your power and Your glory, as I have seen You at the house where nobody is.
Not for me but my Son even Your Son."
Immediately there was a strong flash and after the thunder, a still small voice came to her, saying,
"O My Blessed Virgin! I have glorified it for you and will glorify it again.
So, I will send the clouds hanging low over those trees on this land. They will make water throughout the leaves.
Therefore you shall put cups under the trees.
When dawn has come, you will gather every cup of water. And you can drink it for a day.
And I advise putting only a towel on your flesh lest your clothes get wet.
Do not worry, because I will send the angels of Mine to guard you and worship Him. Arise now, go out and put each cup under a tree."
Mary lifted her eyes and said, "My God, I will do as You advise."
This painting represents a blessing of God who blessed the Virgin Mary in the morning and sent the angel of God to worship Jesus.
