Gospel: “I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always, the Spirit of truth… you know him, because he remains with you.” (John 14:16-17)
Meditation:
Mary is the Spouse of the Holy Spirit. She shows us that the Spirit of Truth remains where there is humility and interior stillness. We ask her to help us clear the clutter of our hearts so the Advocate may find a dwelling place as pleasing as her own soul.

The Medal Connection:
The rays coming from Mary’s hands represent the graces of the Spirit. The Medal is a physical prompt to ask for the “Advocate” to descend. It reminds us that grace is always available if we have the humility to hold out our hands and receive what she offers.

Action Step: Initiate a reconciling conversation with someone you have been avoiding, speaking with Mary’s gentleness.
