Helps record the Journey
I waffled on the fence abut buying this workbook. Money is tight for me, and I wondered if the workbook was really necessary, or if this was just wrangling my money from me. I am grateful that I did purchase it. There were a couple of days I did not write in it. But the physical act of writing a response to the profound, yet simple truths, in the Mary's Mantle book helped me cement the desire in my soul for the virtue of the day. And now I can take the journey again, with the book & workbook, and see how things have changed since my last formal consecration. Right now the biggest change is that I crave the truth. Where will I be in 6 months? Who know! But a written record of my pondering up the mountain of holiness can only help with self awareness., and awareness of God.

My time was short, but tried to keep it up with the chapters in the book and journaling.

Journaling is very helpful. I highly recommend it!
Tomorrow is my consecration to Mary’s mantle. The 46 day spiritual retreat has helped me tremendously to become a better personally inside and out. It doesn’t end right there. I will go back and do the daily retreat over again because it feeds my soul and gives me a better mission in life by following Jesus and Mother Mary’s guiding voices.“Come, follow me.” Matthew 4:19

Beautiful, touching consecration!
I purchased the consecration for me and 3 of my friends. I prayed the night before asking Mary when I should start the consecration. I opened the book and saw the next day was August 1st and the consecration would fall on the feast of Our lady of sorrows. My friend Judi and I began the next day. I can tell you we truly were moved to tears of joy through this consecration. It was just what our aching hearts needed at this time. My friend Rita and her husband began later, but Rita called me and told me how moved she and her husband have been through this consecration. It was truly a blessing. I wish everyone would do this consecration. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner!

To Mary To Jesus
Most excellent faith journey. So much direction and knowledge about how to be more like Jesus. I am so empowered and grateful of learning about myself and how much Jesus loves me, that I am repeating the consecration again to stay evermore faithful and devoted to the Trinity. Absolutely, everyone must have the faithful Blessed Mother walking with them and allowing her to teach each of us about Her son—the Christ. What a privilege! Who else would you take with you? Jesus gave her to us, so why say “no”. Being with Our Lady does NOT take anything away from Christ. Jesus is much bigger than that...besides he was obedient to Mary. Shouldn’t we be too!?

Easy to do, one short chapter a day.
I have read several books that are for preparation for Consecration through Mary, and this is definitely the most user friendly! I purchased the book, along with this prayer journal, and find they worked well together, additionally, I journaled in a separate journal, so I could review or reread prayers, etc., and found each chapter very helpful, well written, and simple! Beautiful! If you haven't made a consecration (to Jesus) through Mary, like St. Louie Marie de Montfort's, I highly recommend doing so! 33 Days to Morning Glory is a 33 Day Prep book, by Fr. M. Gaitley, it is also very good! the Consecration will change your life!

Thought provoking questions
It was worth it to supplement the book with this companion journal. It helps to bring deeper understanding of each virtue with thought provoking questions and a pertinent Bible verse.
