Marie du jour 2020: 7 May

Today, I exercised my apostolate. A little girl at school was so filled with despair. I prayed a Memorare to the most Holy Virgin. I told the little girl all that Mary inspired me to say in order to encourage and console her. I spoke to her of the Virgin, that she should tell Mary all her troubles and ask her protection. I told her that if she suffered in patience, she would have a great reward in heaven.
