Blessed Abbot Marmion points out that when we are members of the Mystical Body of Christ, he explains, we are truly part of His Body and there are certain possessions of His that become ours.The Fruits of the Redemption of our Lord’s Passion and Death become ours.The Life of Sanctifying Grace that Our Lord lived becomes ours.The Seven Sacraments that Our Lord established became ours.So too, by being members of the Mystical Body of Christ, the Holy Mysteries that our Lord lived while on earth became ours.Blessed Abbot Marmion points out that these Mysteries are a source of inexhaustible grace for us when we honor and meditate upon them. Further, each Mystery of our Lord carries with it special graces that are particular to that Mystery from which we may benefit.For example, when we meditate on the Divine Infancy of our Lord, we receive special graces that we do not receive when we meditate on Our Lords activities with Saint Joseph in the carpenter shop, and vice versa.From the book: The Revelations of the Holy Face of Jesus by John Vennari
