St Anne (26 July): Who Shall Find a Valiant Woman?

About this sermon

Who was St. Anne before she became the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary? In this powerful sermon, we discover the hidden spiritual life of St. Anne, whose prayer, sacrifice, humility, and heroic perseverance prepared her to receive one of the greatest privileges ever granted to mankind—the motherhood of the Immaculate Virgin Mary. Drawing from Venerable Mary of Ágreda's Mystical City of God, this sermon explains: • Why St. Anne continually prayed for the coming of the Mother of God. • The active and passive purifications described by St. John of the Cross. • Why God allows suffering and humiliations. • How the devil attacked St. Anne through temptations and other people. • Why trials often come through those closest to us. • The connection between St. Anne's life and Our Lady of Fatima. • How suffering prepares us to become worthy of the promises of Christ. If you have ever wondered why God permits crosses, misunderstandings, or persecution, this sermon offers profound Catholic wisdom rooted in the lives of the saints. May St. Anne obtain for us the grace to embrace our crosses with humility and become worthy of the promises of Christ. 00:00 Introduction — Why Honor St. Anne? 00:39 Becoming Worthy of the Promises of Christ 01:23 St. Anne's Prayer for the Mother of God 03:39 St. Anne Did Not Know She Was Chosen 04:28 God's Preparation of St. Anne 04:59 St. John of the Cross and the Dark Nights 06:28 Pregnancy Filled with Grace 07:31 Satan Searches for the Mother of God 08:53 The Devil's Rage Against St. Anne 09:16 Temptations and Doubts 10:21 Passive Purification Through Others 11:04 Friends Become Enemies 11:43 St. Anne's Meek Response 12:09 Trials Within the Household 12:54 Victory Over Satan 13:27 Fatima and the Call to Suffer 13:57 Final Blessing For more please visit http://www.reginaprophetarum.org & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 #SaintAnne #StAnne #Catholic #TraditionalCatholic #BlessedVirginMary #OurLady #ImmaculateConception #MysticalCityOfGod #MaryOfAgreda #StJohnoftheCross #CatholicSermon #CatholicHomily #TraditionalLatinMass #SpiritualWarfare #Holiness
