People pursue the imitation of Christ

There is a book by St. Thomas a Kempis.

So,I pursued the imitation of St. Mary Magdalen because it suited my life.

Then, the imitation of St. Mary the mother ever virgin.

The latter was more like the imitation of Christ in that Mother Mary was made differently from other women to receive the baby Jesus. It was hard to follow her.

I studied her saint’s qualities: obedience, patience, humility, patience, piety.

The most important thing to be said in this regard, I saw last night, is that, through carrying Jesus in her womb, she knew the mind of God! I don’t know whether this is theologically correct but I had to say it. She was made to do so.

I stopped that course after a while because it was so arduous. But I do recommend it to women as an alternative to the imitaton of Christ.
