The Immutability of God, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and You

I have been working on a new, hopefully easier to understand, translation of St. Louis de Montfort's True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. This has been asked of me from multiple different, independent directions. It's weird. Very Holy Spirit-like, too. 

I thought I would share with you a few paragraphs of True Devotion that I was just working on. Still some of the earlier paragraphs, unfortuna

“Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions.”
G.K. Chesterton

“Dear young Christians, if it is permissible for an old man, like Saint John was, to speak to you directly, then I too exhort you, and I tell you: you have overcome the Evil One! Fight any law against nature that they try to impose on you, oppose any law against life, against the family. Be one of those who take the opposite direction! For us Christians, the opposite direction is not a place; it is a Person, it is Jesus Christ, our Friend and our Redeemer.”
Robert Cardinal Sarah, The Day Is Now Far Spent

“In our materialistic civilization, man thinks almost exclusively of his own narrow interests. He sees God as the one who ought to provide him with what consumption does not give him. God is utilized to satisfy selfish demands. If he does not answer prayer, they abandon him. Some even go so far as to blaspheme his holy name. The religion that ought to connect heaven and earth then runs the risk of becoming a purely narcissistic space.”
Robert Cardinal Sarah, The Day Is Now Far Spent

“Man’s dignity is an echo of God’s transcendence. But if we no longer tremble with a joyful, reverential fear before the greatness of God, how could man be for us a mystery worthy of respect? He no longer has this divine nobility. He becomes a piece of merchandise, a laboratory specimen.”
Robert Cardinal Sarah, The Day Is Now Far Spent

“and to each Christian they will say, as once to Francis of Assisi: “Go and repair my Church!” Go, repair by your faith, by your hope and your charity. Go and repair by your prayer and your fidelity. Thanks to you, my Church will again become my house.”
Robert Cardinal Sarah, The Day Is Now Far Spent
