Magnificat January 2024

14 Vol. LIX, No. 1 Magnificat HAT do you know, dear reader, about the Name of Jesus? You know that it is a holy Name and that you must bow your head reverently when you say it. That is very little. It is as if you looked at a closed book and merely glanced at the title on the cover. You know nothing of all the beautiful thoughts in the book itself. Likewise, when you pronounce the Name of Jesus, you know very little of the treasures hidden within it. This Divine Name is indeed a mine of riches, it is the fount of the highest holiness and the secret of the greatest happiness that a man can hope to enjoy on this earth. It is so powerful, so certain, that it never fails to produce in our soul the most wonderful effects. It comforts the saddest heart and makes the weakest sinner strong. It obtains for us all kinds of favors and graces, spiritual and temporal. Read and see.
