Clues for the Immaculate Heart from Scripture
Gospel of Luke
"And they came with haste; and they found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger. And seeing, they understood of the word that had been spoken to them concerning this child. And all that heard, wondered; and at those things that were told them by the shepherds But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart." (Luke 2:16-19)
"And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother: Behold this child is set for the fall, and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and for a sign which shall be contradicted; And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed." (Luke 2: 35)
"And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. And his mother kept all these words in her heart ." (Luke 2:51)
