Three songs to our Lady

This video has a little story...

A man from the United States sent me, Br. Elijah, a link to a Georgian chant, sung by some little nuns from this country... He told me that Harpa Dei "had to learn this chant", and added that it was the most beautiful song he had ever heard. As far as he had been able to find out, it was a lullaby, and in some source he had read that the Virgin Mary would have sung it to the Child Jesus.

When I heard this song, I immediately perceived its sublime beauty, characteristic of Georgian music. I then remembered that, when I was with the monks in the monastery of Valaam in Russia, someone had said: "In heaven, it will be the Georgians who sing".

In fact, this is not the first time we have encountered the wonderful music of Georgia. We have recorded and published the Georgian song Shen khar venakhi before.

But... is a lullaby appropriate for Harpa Dei, which normally sings Gregorian chant or other musical traditions, focusing properly on sacred chant? Is it appropriate for them to perform a chant whose text reflects the tender way in which a mother speaks to her child? And what could be shown in a video? But wasn't there a story that the Virgin Mary would have sung it to the baby Jesus? Well, the reason would immediately say: "Well yes, a nice legend".

However, the beauty of this song would not let me go....

And then this thought came to me: Couldn't it be a song that is not sung for just one child? What about a lullaby for our "favourites": the unborn children, who are still in their mother's womb? Couldn't the beauty of this song touch the mothers or fathers, to move their hearts to love and accept the child in the womb? And let the children know that we are waiting for them!

And what about the story that Our Lady would have sung this lullaby to the Child Jesus? And this Jesus has given her to us all as Mother, and we are all called to become children of God through the Child of Bethlehem! Could it be that she can sing this song together with us for all of us?

And this is how the idea of the song came about.

Now it is a lullaby for all children: for the unborn, but also for those who have not experienced the love of a mother, as well as for those who did have the joy of growing up surrounded by love....

Thanks to the Mother of God, this song has been extended to all children, and thanks to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, it is accompanied by a strong priestly blessing and an authoritative prayer, so that it may touch the hearts of mothers and fathers who are in danger of not welcoming the life entrusted to them.

If you believe it, it will now be the song of the Virgin Mary, which she sings together with us with the intention of consoling and saving her children.

Therefore, our great request as Harpa Dei is that you accompany the song IAVNANA with your prayers, so that it brings blessing, and that you spread it. Heaven and the children will thank you for it!

A través del diario de la princesa Von der Leyen, Dios nos permite conocer lo que viven las almas en su proceso de purificación para poder entrar al Cielo. No por el morbo, ni por la malsana curiosidad, sino para que nos compadezcamos de ellos y ofrezcamos oraciones y sacrificios que los ayuden a llegar más rápidamente, y dejar atrás el terrible tormento y dolor del Purgatorio.

⁣Algunos consejos para superar la tristeza con la ayuda del Espíritu Santo.

En esta breve charla, el Padre Ripperger explica de qué manera nos intenta oprimir el demonio, y cuáles son las herramientas con las que contamos para contrarrestar esta influencia.

En este vídeo presentamos extractos del padre Amorth y del padre Chad Ripperger, entre otros, explicando la procedencia de esta importante oración, cuántos tipos existen, y quiénes pueden rezar unos y otros.

⁣Lyrics:

There was a man named Harrison
Who gave a commencement speech
At Benedictine College
He got up, and started to preach

Harrison the Jew Buttkicker
He's a real Catholic man
Not shy about tellin' the truth
So I think I am a fan

They said his speech is sexist
'Cause he said motherhood is good,
Birth control, and abortion are bad
For this they had him jewed

He said they're outlawin' the Good Book
'Cause it offends the Jews
They're all kvetching right now
Bashin' him in the news

Harrison, you preach the Faith
And don't listen to what they say
Just give love to Christ the King
And let the Jews kvetch away

⁣Harrison Butker and the Rise of Trad Catholicism are Sowing Discord in the Culture

A heated segment from 'The View' provides a backdrop for discussing religious practices. These conversations set the stage for a deep dive into the nuances of faith and public opinion.

This episode isn't just about debates and discussions; it's a reflection of the shifting sands of traditional Catholicism. Witness the clash between the old-world charm of the Traditional Latin Mass and modernist perspectives, sparking discussions on whether our society is experiencing a moral recalibration. Through anecdotes and Catholic teachings, we explore how the essence of a fulfilling life often lies in the sacrifices we make for our loved ones rather than the accolades we earn in our professions.

We wrap up with a guest appearance from Kale Zeldon, who joins in as we reminisce about the influential years of Pope John Paul II. Our journey circles back to my own reconnection with Catholicism and the intellectual richness of the Church that beckoned me home. As we conclude with a discussion on Russell Brand's engagement with Christianity, we invite listeners to discover an episode filled with authenticity, seeking truth in humor, faith, and society. So, grab your headphones, get comfortable, and immerse yourself in a conversation that promises to enlighten, challenge, and inspire.
