Strenna Novena Day 7 The prayers, considerations and joys of this day
Hoy December 22 we have you on the seventh day of Novenas. At MARCA Claro we want to accompany you in these days of reflection. They are days of happiness to share with your family and friends and here we bring you the prayers to follow the steps easily.
The Novena of Strenna is a tradition that has been carried out for hundreds of years at Christmas time to gather as a family and friends in prayer and song. It is a custom that lasts the nine days prior to Christmas, with a prayer for each day that we show you below for this seventh day:
Did you know what? So you can play from Colombia to the two largest lotteries in the world: US $ 650 million at stake!
Let us imagine the journey of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem, taking with them, as yet unborn, the Creator of the universe made man. Let us contemplate the humanity and obedience of this Divine Child who, although of a Jewish race and having loved his people for centuries with an inexplicable predilection, thus obeys a foreign prince who forms the population census of his province, as if there were for Him in That circumstance something that would flatter him, and he would like to hasten to take advantage of the opportunity to be officially and authentically registered as a subject at the time he came into the world. Is it not strange that the humiliation, which causes such invincible disgust to the creature, seems to be the only created thing that has attractions to the Creator? Wouldn’t Jesus’ humility teach us to love that beautiful virtue?
Ah …! May the moment come when the desired of the nations appears, because everything cries out for this happy event, The world, plunged in darkness and discomfort, seeking and not finding relief from its ills, sighs for its Liberator . Josh’s longing, Mara’s expectation, are something that human language cannot express. The Eternal Father stands, if it is lawful to use this expression adorably impatient to give his only Son to the world, and to see him take his place among the visible creatures. The Holy Spirit burns with the desire to present in the light of day this holy humanity so beautiful that He Himself has formed with such special and divine care.As for the Divine Child, the object of so many longings, let us remember that the same care that He did advance towards us. Beln, Let us hasten with our wish the moment of your arrival; let us purify our souls to be his mystical abode, and our hearts to be his earthly Manis; Let our acts of self-mortification “prepare the ways of the Lord and make his paths straight.”
Most blessed God of infinite charity, who so loved men, that you gave them in your son the pledge of your love, so that, made man in the womb of a Virgin, he would be born in a manger for our health and medicine; I, on behalf of all mortals, give you infinite thanks for such a sovereign benefit. In return, I offer you the poverty, humility and other virtues of your humanized son, pleading with you for his divine merits, for the discomfort in which he was born and for the tender tears that he shed in the manger, that you dispose of our hearts with deep humility, with love on fire, with such contempt for all things earthly, so that the newborn Jesus may have his cradle in them and dwell forever. Amn. (Glory to the Father is prayed three times).
Sovereign Mara, because of your great virtues and especially because of your humility, you deserved that a whole God chose you as his mother, I beg you that you yourself prepare and dispose of my soul and that of all those who at this time made this novena, for the birth of your beloved son. Oh sweet mother !, communicate to me something of the deep recollection and divine tenderness with which you awaited him, so that you make us less unworthy to see him, love him and adore him for all eternity. Amn. (The Avemara is prayed three times).
O most holy Joseph, husband of Mary and foster father of Jesus! Infinite thanks I give to God because he chose you for such sovereign mysteries and adorned you with all the gifts provided to such excellent greatness. I beg you, for the love you had for the Divine Child, you embrace me in fervent desire to see him and receive him sacramentally, while in his divine essence I see him and I enjoy him in heaven. Amn. (An Our Father, a Hail and a Gloria are said).
Remember, oh sweet Child Jesus!, That you said to the venerable Margaret of the Blessed Sacrament, and in her person to all your devotees, these words so consoling for our poor overwhelmed and suffering humanity: “Everything you want to ask, ask for the merits. of my childhood and nothing will be denied you “. Filled with confidence in you, oh Jesus, that you are the same truth, we come to expose you all our misery. Help us to lead a holy life, to achieve a blissful eternity. Concede us for the infinite merits of your childhood, the grace of which we need so much. We entrust ourselves to you, O almighty Child, sure that we will not give up our hope frustrated, and that by virtue of your divine promise, you will welcome and send our plea favorably. Amn.
