Sister Mary of St. Peter was an extremely pious Carmelite nun of the first half of the nineteenth century. Her extreme humility takes some getting used to for twenty-first century readers, but be assured she is the real deal. Although even her contemporaries have problems taking her seriously, she means every word. As soon as she starts quoting Jesus, this becomes increasingly obvious. Most of what we learn about her life in Carmel in this first section is before the revelations begin. This portion of the text concludes on June 13,a little over a year before her rather sudden death. Mary, is the collection of her accounts of each separate revelation from Our LORD and what He The Golden Arrow: The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter her with at the time. In the beginning, He was preparing her for her mission by testing her obedience to her superiors, strengthening her through addition prayer practices and assignments which she found more repugnant to her spiritual sensibilities. Jesus explained to Sr. No matter how he tries to hide it, if it happens enough, his face will begin to take on the look of defeat, pain, sorrow and remorse for the hatred shown to him by the insults to his good name. The last revelation which Sister Mary relates is from April The rest of her story is taken from the Appendix written by Fr. Sister Mary accepted the decision peacefully yet never lost hope that they would one day be approved and promulgated. As she had always been obedient in spirit, so she was now. Not long afterwards, though she had been in excellent health, she was taken sick and died not four months later. She died in the odor of sanctity in the 33rd year of her life on July 8th After her death, Reparation through the Devotion to the Holy Face was chiefly kept up through the fervor of a wealthy retired lawyer of Tours, a devoted friend of the Carmelite nun, Leo Dupont. Scallan, the priest mentioned above, plus another book written by a woman in our local area, Veronica's Veil: Companion Prayer Book. There is much more to learn on this subject! However, I am sure Sister Mary would advocate for prayer and reparation over learning, or at least after The Golden Arrow: The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter, and this book contains a number of other prayers in addition to The Golden Arrow above. The demon would give me an aversion for this devotion, but not to worry about it, that the excellence of this devotion surpasses other devotions. It is pleasing to God, the Angels and Saints and beneficial to the Church. January 25, Have had this for several months now but not had the chance to begin. The first few chapters were a bit difficult to get into. Pious nineteenth century nuns have a way of writing which takes a bit of getting used to. You The Golden Arrow: The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter to peal away several layers of 21st century cynicism from your own eyes, much of which you do not even realize is there. The best analogy I can think of is when you get a cataract removed. You don't even know how dark your view until after the surgery. That is why it is The Golden Arrow: The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter good for me to read works like this. It helps me The Golden Arrow: The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter that the way our Age views the world is not the way people from other ages have seen things. Granted, Sr. Peter was considered eccentric even by the standards of her own time, as can be seen by the way her superiors handle her conversations with Jesus. Their handling of her, however, only gives the book, the revelations, credibility. If I had been them, I should have been skeptical of her as well. And yet, I also admire her childlike simplicity, while I find it a bit hard to relate to. Maybe it would be different if I were to meet her. I wonder Marie and her influence over the Little Flower.
