Session 4
Chapters 25-32
Julian meets Mary, the mother of our Lord. Jesus delights in showing Mary to Julian. Mary is the only specific person Julian was shown in the revelations. Mary was radiant and regal.
Ch 26 - “Our soul will never find rest until it comes into Jesus and understands that he is the fullness of all joy.”
Ch 27- Sin has no substance. All will be well. “God does not have one iota of blame for any of us.”
Ch 28- God’s overwhelming compassion for us inspires Julian’s deep compassion for all her neighbors.
The impulse towards compassion we feel toward others is the Christ in us. He looks upon us with total mercy and sympathy.
Ch 29- Adam’s sin has been repaired. All is well.
Ch 30 - there is room for all in the salvific heart of God. There are some things that remain a secret, a mystery hidden in eternity. We should desire only that we grow to know God’s will for us.
Ch 31- Christ yearns for our union in joy.
Christ’s longing for us is unending and awakens the longing in us for Him.
Ch 32 - our Lord cares about even the smallest things. Nothing is overlooked. Creatures traditional teaching says are bound for hell will be made well and gathered up in endless bliss and joy. How? That’s a mystery not yet to be revealed.
