Inatober:     Day 16: Fire DF+ Fumatory

I’m late here, I had this one for some days done but I couldn’t take the photo. Fumitories are very pretty, but I couldn’t find much information about their Flower Language, I know they mean shyness and, well, Teres isn’t shy at all, but I really wanted to draw him because I loved all the FFI captains, they were such an interesting characters to me.

St. John Paul II and Mother Teresa of Calcutta; Best friends of Faith

St. John Paul II, wrote an Apostolic Letter on the Rosary. No wonder he was entitled as “Great Pope” because of his works and prayers. In his Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae on a personal note, He reflect his devotion to the Virgin Mary and the Rosary, and his confidence in the power of her intercession. As he said, many of us "came" to Mary in our youth; others came later in life. He also added in his account how he knows Mary:

"During the Second World War, while I was employed as a factory worker, I came to be attracted to Marian devotion. At first, it seemed to me that I should distance myself a bit from the Marian devotion of my childhood, in order to focus more on Christ. Thanks to St. Louis of Montfort, I came to understand that true devotion to the Mother of God is actually Christocentric, indeed, it is very profoundly rooted in the mystery of the Blessed Trinity, and the mysteries of the Incarnation and Redemption."

Because of the strong devotion of St. John Paul II, On the year 2002 he added new five set of mysteries under the Luminous, and bringing the total number of mysteries to 20.

Reflection:

There was a special friendship between Mother Teresa and St. John Paul II, a friendship that will be continue even in eternal life. Mother Teresa and St. John Paul II, the man and the woman of the century, who together made and changed history. They were pilgrims of peace, individuals who were deeply in love with God and neighbor, supporters of the poor and the marginalized promoters of human freedom and human dignity. The fruits of works are from the source of grace of the heavenly Father and the intercession of the Virgin Mary, as what Mother Teresa and St. John Paul II claimed. Indeed, both of them became the model of current century in devotion of the Blessed Virgin Mary and of the Holy Rosary. Let us continue praying as what the two saints did during their existence in this earthly world.
