"The title
of Immaculate belongs to the whole being of My Mother and not specially to Her
Heart. The title flows from my gratuitous gift to the Virgin who was to give me
birth. My Mother has acquired from her Heart the title of 'Sorrowful' by
sharing generously in all the sufferings of My Heart and My Body from the crib
to the cross. There is not one of these Sorrows which did not pierce the
Heart of My Mother. Living image of My crucified Body, her virginal flesh
bore the invisible marks of My wounds as her Heart felt the Sorrows of My
own. Nothing could ever tarnish the incorruptibility of her Immaculate
Heart. The title of ‘Sorrowful’ belongs therefore to the Heart of My Mother,
and more than any other, this title is dear to Her because it springs from the
union of her Heart with Mine in the redemption of humanity. This title has been
acquired by her through her full participation in My Calvary, and it precedes
the gratuitous title ‘Immaculate’ which My love bestowed upon her by a singular
privilege."
"Recourse
to my Mother under the title I wish for her universally is the last help I
shall give before the end of time." (The Words of Our
Lord to Berthe Petit)
