ANSWERED PRAYER
St. Maximilian Kolbe Novena
“My dearest St. Maximilian Kolbe, thank you for walking with me through these nine days. When I began your novena, I simply wanted to know you better, to understand the saint who loved Jesus and the Immaculata so completely. Somehow, along the way, I felt you becoming a little more familiar to my heart. Thank you for accompanying me into this new journey and for praying over the hopes, fears, uncertainties, and little things I carried quietly in my heart. So much has already fallen into place, and I can only look back with gratitude. Thank you especially for bringing me closer to Mama. Teach me to love her as you did, to surrender more completely, and to trust God even when I cannot see what comes next. I may have begun this novena wanting to know you, but I hope it is only the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Please stay close and lead me always to Jesus and Mama Mary. St. Maximilian Kolbe, apostle of the Immaculata, pray for me. 🤍”
