Our Lady of the Rosary

Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters. "When an unclean spirit goes out of someone, it roams through arid regions searching for rest but, finding none, it says, 'I shall return to my home from which I came.' But upon returning, it finds it swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and brings back seven other spirits more wicked than itself who move in and dwell there, and the last condition of that person is worse than the first" (Luke 11: 23-26).

One of the greatest victories the devil can have is to have you think or believe that he doesn’t exist. He is not the funny little creature with horns and a pitchfork. He is the enemy of your soul and he wants to separate you from God because he knows how much God loves you. He is a liar. 

Blessed Mother, protect me from the lies of the devil and draw me closer to Jesus.
