Silence is So Deep in Mary's Soul

	Silence is So Deep in Mary's Soul... Mary in prayer is filled with the Holy Spirit in the silence of her home. Silence is so deep in Mary’s soul that she can hear what God wants to say to her. And God always says things that surprise human understanding. God prepared Mary’s soul to receive all that was going to happen with Faith, Hope and Love. Mary’s soul was prepared in the crucible of suffering. No one can receive the gift of God, in Faith, Hope and Love, without passing through deep interior suffering. That's how God always enters a soul; He digs down deep enough to plant the three splendid trees that are Faith, Hope and Love. Then He reigns in it totally and absolutely. Who can express the degree of suffering that Mary experienced since her childhood, until she attached herself to God alone and consecrated her entire life to Him?
