St Juan Diego’s Words to Our Lady of Guadalupe
Saint Juan Diego, that recollected servant of Christ and Mary, spoke these words of humility to the Blessed Virgin:
Here we see why God chose Juan Diego to receive the vision and message of Guadalupe, as the Holy Spirit spoke through Saint Paul:
[27] But the foolish things of the world hath God chosen, that he may confound the wise; and the weak things of the world hath God chosen, that he may confound the strong. [28] And the base things of the world, and the things that are contemptible, hath God chosen, and things that are not, that he might bring to nought things that are: [29] That no flesh should glory in his sight. [30] But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and justice, and sanctification, and redemption:
[31] That, as it is written: He that glorieth, may glory in the Lord (1 Cor 1:27-31).
Happy Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe!
PS: Juan Diego, a layman baptized and catechized by Franciscans, who became celibate living in a hermitage and received the Holy Eucharist thrice a week, was very likely a Third Order Franciscan.
