«Considerad qué tal debe ser la grandeza de esta Señora». Festividad del Carmen. Desde el Carmelo

These reflections primarily focus on commenting on the Gospel and texts from the Carmelite Saints in a prayerful way, and from a contemporary perspective on the times we live in each day. Quotations from the Carmelite Saints: Saint Teresa of Avila: The Interior Castle, Book 3, Chapter 1, 2. From the Gospel according to John 19:25-27 At that time, standing near the cross of Jesus were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, “Woman, here is your son.” Then he said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.
