Consecration from the Maternal Womb

Dearest Mother Mary, as an embryo that is gestating in the mother’s womb, I come to place myself in Your blessed womb in an act of love and obedience to the Will of the Father, because my Lord Jesus tells me: “Behold your mother”.

I consecrate to You each of my organs, limbs, senses, powers, understanding, memory and will, the unconscious, subconscious and preconscious. I consecrate to You each of the gifts, virtues and charisms with which my Heavenly Father adorned my being. I consecrate to You my freedom, imagination, instincts and capacity to love and to choose the times and spaces in which my existence will journey.

I consecrate to You my childhood, adolescence, youth and maturity that I may learn to walk, holding on to Your hand towards God. That I may learn to laugh, to find the meaning of a tear, to succeed and to fall, to wait, to listen and to breathe, to see and to taste thus not to fall into disorder and slavery of the senses.

May I grow, but not me, but your beloved Son in me, so that my whole being grow in faith, hope and charity, in love towards the Heavenly Father and my parents on earth, understanding and respecting them from their own history. To grow in love towards my brothers in the world, especially towards the poorest and most abandoned.

May your purity and chastity grow in me. Help me grow in justice, wisdom and prudence to be a truly free and happy person, not a victim of vices, idolatries and slaveries, of death in life. I consecrate to You my future state in life: singleness, marriage, widowhood or consecrated life so that it is in perfect harmony with the Will of my Heavenly Father, not making idolatries of any of these states of life, nor of the gifts, graces and charisms that God, through You, develop in me.

Heavenly Mother, may the love and desire that You had to always do the Father’s Will grow in me, as well as the strength to accept from God, not only good things, but also the unpleasant ones (Job 1, 21; 2,10) and wisdom to understand that they are not bad, because a Father does not want bad things for his children.

Mother, I place my old age in Your Immaculate Heart. Teach me to grow old and to live with a safe and confident spirit this beautiful moment of life, as You lived it, trusting in the Father, not in men or in the difficulties of old age; and if some vicissitude arises, to be able to face it joyfully as a worthy child of God, as a true child of Yours, with a spirit of joy, oblation and sacrifice, with Your beloved Son, The Eucharistic Jesus, and may it not be me but Him in me.

Along with old age, I also consecrate to You, my death. Let it be a continuous experience of life in Christ, dying to live. And in this journey and at the moment of my death, may it be Your Son Jesus, His mystical body expiring in me, dying in me everything that is not of God. And in that beautiful moment may it be You giving birth to me for eternal life, for the new Jerusalem, for the final embrace of the Father.

Dearest Mother, may my experience of Christian life be a deepening of my roots and of my ancestors in Your maternal womb, to breathe in You, New Earth, secure refuge, breastplate and shield to make of me a new creature, so that, my roots intertwined with Yours and Your virtues, I can obtain from You the blessed fruit of Your womb: Jesus! Amen, Amen, Amen.
