Jesus explained that to be consecrated to Mary is to abandon your life to Her so that She can bring you to the foot of the Cross. As a soul receives Holy Communion in a state of grace with reverence and love, and a soul spends time in adoration of the Most Holy Sacrament, Jesus begins to reveal His love to that soul. But to respond to this Love, a soul must then allow our Blessed Mother to bring him to the foot of the Cross where Mary is united most intimately to Her Son, participating in the redemption of mankind.

When a soul responds fully and allows himself to be crucified in Christ, he can receive the full power and outpouring of the Holy Spirit. In the Cross lies the crucible of fire, which is the pierced and Sacred Heart of Jesus. Only by entering this fire can we be fully emptied, purified, and transformed. Then the Holy Spirit fills us and moves through us as His empty vessel (pure chalices of gold). This is the new Evangelization. That is why the new Evangelization can only come about through the Cross, the power of the Love of God.
