“Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless – like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” —Bruce Lee
Our theme this year is to OBEY and WITNESS. To obey is to be water and to become whatever we are poured into. To witness, is to be the shape of what we have been poured into.
“Mary is the great mould of God … Everyone who casts himself into it and allows himself to be moulded will acquire every feature of Jesus Christ, true God, with little pain or effort, as befits his weak human condition. He will take on a faithful likeness to Jesus with no possibility of distortion…” — St. Louis de Montfort
Thus, “be water, my friend.” With the obedience of faith, let us allow ourselves to be poured into our Mother Mary so that by the grace of God we can truly be formed into Jesus Christ. When this happens, our nature is transformed, like water into wine.
Totus Tuus!
