Life and Thoughts of Mariam Baouardy. The Little Nothing

As you read Mariam's life, you will be struck by the mystical phenomena with which it was enriched (visions, ecstasies, reading of hearts, prophecies, revelations, bilocations, stigmata, as well as demonic harassment). Yet this is not the secret of her holiness. Page after page, you will discover that the daily practice of faith and charity, and the acceptance of suffering and the cross with a heart grateful to the Lord, are the true examples this Saint can offer you. You will be won over by her simplicity, spontaneity, humility, honesty, charity and, above all, her docility to the Holy Spirit. With her help and intercession, you can begin to follow her example and teaching, and thus experience a deeper life of faith and a greater love for Jesus Christ, the Gospel and the Church.
