Three Important Steps for Eternal Salvation

This quote from an Angel to St. Frances of Rome is such a powerful reminder of why we are so blessed as Catholics to have access to indulgences, partial and plenary. These aid Christians in avoiding Purgatory, however they must be used appropriately for their graces to apply.

For the one who is totally consecrated to Jesus in Mary, any and all graces obtained through indulgences are given entirely into the hands of Mary, our Queen and Mother. She deems the best way to utilize them for her intentions. But as St. Montfort says, if we give her even a bruised petal, she transforms it into a rose garden. This underscores the beauty and power of this spirituality.

And this also reminds us of why it is so important to be Catholic and in a state of grace. Because outside the Ark of Salvation, the flood waters will quickly take souls to perdition. The road to eternal life is narrow. But the first step to that road is through Jesus Christ and His Bride, which is the Church.

And the greatest help to keeping on that road is to be totally consecrated to Jesus in Mary. She will then do what she needs to do to conform us to Christ and to bring us to the doorway of the Divine Will, wherein God can reign within us.

So step one: repent of your sins and convert to Catholicism. Step two: consecrate yourself entirely to Jesus through Mary. Step three: allow Mary to reign as Queen and Jesus as King of our hearts and souls, so that we can learn the science of holiness known as Living in the Divine Will.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. We love you. Save souls.
