Did you know that St. Louis-Marie de Montfort said God revealed a secret to him that works better than any other devotion to help you get closer to God?
He wrote...
"Predestinate soul, here is a secret the Most High has taught me, which I have not been able to find in any book, old or new. I confide it to you, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit" ("The Secret of Mary", #1).
This book spells out the whats, whys, and hows of this secret, which is consecration to Mary.
It fills in the gaps St. Louis admitted are in his "True Devotion to Mary".
He confessed...
"I have now said many things about the Most Holy Virgin; but I have many more to say, and there are infinitely more which I shall omit, whether from ignorance, inability, or want of time" (True Devotion, #111).
This is also two-books-in-one. The second book is "Why Consecrate Myself to the Immaculate Heart of Mary?"
The Holy Spirit summed up the first thirty years of Jesus' life in one sentence:
"And He was subject to them" (Lk. 2:51).
That's why St. Louis declared:
"He gave more glory to God His Father during all that time of submission and dependence to our Blessed Lady than He would have given Him if He had employed those thirty years in working miracles, in preaching to the whole earth, and in converting all men, seeing that His heavenly Father and Himself had ruled it thus: "I always do the things which please Him." Oh, how highly we glorify God, when, after the example of Jesus, we submit ourselves to Mary!" (True Devotion, #139)
Since God revealed it to him, St. Louis assures you that this devotion...
"...is a path trodden by Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, our sole Head. One of His members in passing by the same road cannot deceive himself" (True Devotion, #168).
Jesus' Sacred Heart is a human heart, with human emotions and feelings. Jesus experienced both joy and sadness.
And since He's our Model for living this devotion to His Mother, nothing would give His Sacred Heart more joy than to see you following Him on the path of this devotion to her, because He said, "I have given you an example, that as I have done...so you do also" (Jn. 13:15).
Furthermore, what reason would He have not to rejoice? When you consider the immense love He has for you, and how He wants to lead you to His Father, how could He not rejoice at seeing you live the devotion which He lived, and about which St. Louis said:
"I have never found a practice of devotion to Our Lady more solid than this one, since it takes its inspiration from the example of Jesus Christ. Neither have I found any devotion which redounds more to God's glory, is more salutary to the soul, and more feared by the enemies of our salvation; nor, finally, have I found a devotion that is more attractive and more satisfying" ("The Love of Eternal Wisdom", Ch. 17, #2).
When Jesus said, "Abide in Me" (Jn. 15:4), He wanted that to happen as soon as possible.
Since God revealed this devotion, it's the best way for you to make it happen, because St. Louis emphasizes:
"This devotion to the Blessed Virgin is a short road to find Jesus Christ, both because it is a road which we do not stray from, and because, as I have said, it is a road we tread with joy and ease, and, by consequence, with speed. We make more progress in a brief period of submission to and dependance on Mary than in whole years of our own will and of relying upon ourselves" (True Devotion, #155).
God tells us: "He that is holy, let him be sanctified still" (Apoc. 22:11).
So, when it comes to your sanctification, this isn't something He wants you to put off until later.
