On July 16th. Our Lady of Carmel, pray for us!

 

Dear Lady of Carmel,

 

From time to time, I am thinking of you, days of our lives

I remember while each one fears death and to a life unknown, we are afraid of the abyss and the devil.  It is said that the luminescence of your light spreads around every soul hereafter, and now here, against demons or bad spirits

How beautiful Mama Mary, are the ways of God.  How beautiful you stand for us everywhere dear Mother.

I have dreamt of you in your feast day.  The inspiration of you, draws everyone in love and humility.

Dreams show me the dead when they live once more, with us and teach God’s ways, maybe like angels, when Martin who for one year, in the knotted scapulars on the altar with his picture beside – draw a vivid remembrance of the Carmel day, happy, sharing fruits and water melons. 

How lovely are your ways, dear Lord!

And when a teacher, so dear like Sir Perez, my Aunt Asela, and my friend Almed, inspired me with the scapulars on the passing of time, what else but God’s forgiveness and abundant blessings, are in our midst, scapulars, guiding us all – the living and the dead.

Young kids and teens listen to my stories. Maybe, my stories seem to be like fairy tales or parables, maybe they seem strange.  But then, these stories leave a tender smile of excitement and joy to their faces.  When Matthew asked me, in a tease – “Wow! Is it our Lady of Caramel?”  Surely, we all laughed.  It is not for a scorn or to shun my Lady, but I understand a nearness of his heart for the Mother.  We all got each other. 

Truly, when you, dear Lady of Carmel, grace our conversations, your presence and nearness make us powerful and happy all the days of our lives. Forever.

Our Lady of Carmel, pray for us!
