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).
In this book, Montfort Father Antonin Lhoumeau shows you how to use this secret to prepare for the End Times in union with Mary.
He explains it so well, that the Montfort Fathers stated...
"Abbé Antonin Lhoumeau was a man gifted with great talents. Fr. Lhoumeau made an enormous contribution to the spread of Marian spirituality. He wrote books which were very well received."
Now's the best time to start preparing for the End Times with Mary, because Jesus told us to live with a sense of urgency, and always be ready for His return (Mt. 25:13).
And St. Louis reminds you:
"It is Mary alone who has found grace before God, without the aid of any other mere creature: it is only by her that all those who have found grace before God have found it at all; and it is only by her that all those who shall come afterwards shall find it" ("True Devotion to Mary", #44).
Now, 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:
"Jesus Christ gave more glory to God the Father by submission to His Mother during those thirty years than He would have given Him in converting the whole world by the working of the most stupendous miracles. Oh, how highly we glorify God, when, to please Him, we submit ourselves to Mary, after the example of Jesus Christ, our sole Exemplar!" (True Devotion, #18)
Since God revealed this devotion to him, St. Louis assures you that it...
"...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 human 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).
How could He not rejoice at seeing you live the devotion 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.
This devotion is 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.
