Joyfully she brought her child back from Egypt to Galilee; having lived outside
Judea, she eventually went there, leaving her people. Discovering that Christ
was missing, she returned to Jerusalem and found him three days afterwards, deep
in discussion in the temple; rejoicing, she brought him back, joyfully keeping
him in her charge, he who was the king of kings. She beheld him, a shining
figure performing miracles, revealing the glory of his divine nature,
demonstrating the holiness of his life by exercising his power, by preaching the
truth. She saw, with great sadness, Christ drenched with blood on the cross,
but her grief was lessened because she believed that he suffered for the
salvation of the world. She guides us towards salvation, a pillar of faith, in
whom faith grew strong; as when a shepherd is struck down and his flock,
inclined from fear to flight, still runs together in faith. Joyfully she saw
Christ in triumph, plundering hell; she saw him restored after death to life,
and rejoiced that such was her son. Joyfully she saw the evils of the world
destroyed and her son taking his seat in heaven ...
