July 23 – Saint Bridget of Sweden (d. 1373)

Revelations from the Heart of Jesus and Mary to Saint Bridget

St. Bridget heard the Mother of God explain to her:

"I can therefore boldly say that his pain was my pain since his heart was my heart. For just as Adam and Eve sold the world for an apple, so my Son and I bought back the world as with one heart. Consider therefore, my daughter, how I was at the death of my Son, and it will not be hard for you to give up the world and her cares." (Sermo angelicus, I, 1, c 35, ed. Eklund, p. 56)

She also heard Jesus say:

"I tell you that my Mother and I have saved man as with one heart; I with the pain in my heart and in my flesh, she with the pain and the love of her heart." (Revelationes extravagantes, ed. C. Durante, Romae 1606, c 3, p. 804)

And Mary also said to her:

“My daughter, consider the suffering of my Son, for his limbs were like my own limbs and his heart like my own heart. For just as other children use to be carried in the womb of their mother, so was he in me.” (Revelationes, I, 1, c 35, ed Durante, p. 56)
