When the virus reaches the lungs, their mucous membranes become inflamed. That can damage the alveoli or lung sacs and they have to work harder to carry out their function of supplying oxygen to the blood… ~ The New York Times
And about I guess it was about 3 o’clock in the morning I got to the point where I couldn’t even breathe, and I tell you I felt like I had a man laying on my chest and the weight of this man was so heavy that he was taking my breath. I mean, it was like I couldn’t even breathe. And then all of a sudden I felt this — I felt air blown into my lungs and I know as a believer that God was there with me, and He began to blow air in my lungs and I took a deep breath…the doctor came in the next morning and informed him that he had hardly any fluid left in his lungs… ~ Clay Bentley, Covid-19 survivor
I felt air blown into my lungs
5 years ago, on the 2nd day of my Passion of Christ novena, I felt a voice say,
Blow the spirit of My Mother into the realms.
I didn’t understand what ‘realms’ referred to; I didn’t know how to blow either.
But yesterday, reading that account of Clay Bentley, seeing the words, I felt air blown into my lungs, I suddenly remembered the Voice that told me to blow the spirit of Mary into the realms.
Like everyone else, I had learned that the Sars-CoV-2 virus which causes Covid-19 can severely damage the lungs, impairing its ability to supply oxygen to the blood.
What if there was something I could do to help stricken lungs to heal and function well again?
Step into the breach
Blow the spirit of My Mother into the realms
And so I’ve begun. I’m praying Hail Marys, offering each one for a Covid victim in need of the Holy Mother’s spirit. I don’t know if it’s what I’m meant to do, but ailing lungs need help.
The Hail Mary prayer is that help. It is the heavenly ventilator needed by so many.
Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with you
Blessed are you among all women
And blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
