What Is The Meaning Of Consecration?
[This article includes:] "Dedication to the Heart of Mary must therefore maintain the vital unity between the Heart of Mary and the Heart of Jesus. We must confide ourselves to the Heart of Mary in view of our consecration to God. We offer ourselves to this divine consecration through Mary, for she points the way to the heart of Jesus."

Scripture

The Life of Mary: Presentation of Jesus in the Temple
She heard Simeon foretelling ... that her Son would be a sign of contradiction and that a sword would pierce the mother's soul, that out of many hearts, thoughts might be revealed. (cf. Lk 2:34-35)

Here Jesus lets us catch a glimpse of the mystery of his total consecration to a mission that flows from his divine sonship: "Did you not know that I must be about my Father's work?" (Lk 2:49 alt) Mary and Joseph did not understand these words, but they accepted them in faith. Mary "kept all these things in her heart" during the years Jesus remained hidden in the silence of an ordinary life.
