STRUEB, Hans and/or Jakob
The Visitation c. 1505 Museo Thyssen – Spain
THIRD STATION
“John was “filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother’s womb” by Christ himself, whom the Virgin Mary had just conceived by the Holy Spirit. Mary’s visitation to Elizabeth thus became a visit from God to his people.” Catechism of the Catholic Church (717)
A MORNING OFFERING
“O Jesus, I adore Thee in Thy temporal conception, and in Thy presence in the sacred womb of Thy most pure mother, for the space of nine months, and in Thy birth into this world at the end of that time…. I give myself to Thee, O my Dear Jesus, that I may now repeat the acts Thou didst perfect while dwelling from all eternity in the bosom of the Father, and for nine months in the womb of Thy mother. (St. John Eudes, The Life and the Kingdom of Jesus in Christian Souls)
