Description: The Magnificent Prayers of St. Brigid of Sweden Book cover info: St. Bridget relates the following: As she had been desirous for a long time to know the number of blows Our Lord received during His Passion, Jesus revealed to her: "I received 5,480 blows upon My Body. If you wish to honor them in some way, say fifteen Our Father prayers and fifteen Hail Mary prayers with the following prayers [which He taught her] for a whole year. When the year is finished, you will have honored each one of My wounds." To this Our Lord added the promise of signal graces to be received by those who practice this devotion. St. Gertrude the Great, St. Mechtilde and St. Catherine of Siena have all revealed that those who meditate on Our Lord's Passion are very dear to Him. St. Francis de Sales says that the Passion should be the ordinary subject of meditation of every Christian. Jesus revealed to St. Albert the Great that He was more pleased if we meditate on His Passion and Death 15 minutes than if we were to fast on bread and water every Friday for an entire year. And St. Augustine writes that "there is no more profitable occupation for the soul than to meditate daily on the Passion of Our Lord." These beautiful prayers, given to us by St. Bridget of Sweden, are an easy and efficacious means of meditation daily on Our Lord's Passion and Death. May the Faithful embrace this devotion and promote it widely. TAN BOOKS www.TANBooks.com ISBN 978-0-89555-220-4
