Rediscovered After Nearly Two Decades... A Providence-Filled Find!
Sometimes God has a way of reminding us that His gifts arrive in His perfect time.
Over 20 years ago, I commissioned these beautiful large bronze Our Lady of Tears medals, inspired by one of the Church's most moving Marian devotions.
When our family moved to our farm in 2009, I believed they had been lost forever.
This week, while cleaning a long-forgotten drawer in our office, we found them.
What a blessed surprise!
For those devoted to Our Lady, it felt less like finding an old box and more like receiving a quiet reminder that His Blessed Mother never forgets her children.
These are the last remaining medals from that original casting.
These Large Bronze Our Lady of Tears Medal are approximately 2 inches.
Beautifully cast in solid bronze with an antique finish, this substantial devotional medal bears two powerful images.
Back: Our Lord Jesus Christ with the prayer:
"O Jesus in Chains, by Your Divine Meekness, save the world from its impending doom."
Front: Our Lady of Tears with the prayer:
"Sorrowful Mother, Your Tears Destroy the Dominion of Hell."
These prayers have been cherished by many Catholics seeking mercy, conversion, protection, and peace in times of great spiritual trial.
The Devotion to Our Lady of Tears
The devotion to Our Lady of Tears grew through the mystical experiences of Sister Amália of Jesus Flagellated in Brazil during the early 1930s. She reported receiving messages encouraging the faithful to meditate on the tears Our Blessed Mother shed during Christ's Passion. The devotion emphasizes that Mary's tears are united to the redemptive suffering of her Son and are offered for the conversion of sinners, protection from evil, and the salvation of souls.
One of the best-known prayers associated with this devotion is:
"O Jesus Crucified! Prostrate at Your feet, we offer You the tears of She who loved You most on earth and loves You most fervently in Heaven. Grant that we may understand the lessons which the tears of Your Holy Mother teach us, so that we may fulfill Your holy will on earth and be found worthy to praise and exalt You forever in Heaven. Amen."
Another beloved invocation is:
"O Jesus in Chains, by Your Divine Meekness, save the world from its impending doom." followed by:"Sorrowful Mother, by Your Tears destroy the dominion of hell."
Many of the faithful pray these invocations daily, asking Our Lady to obtain conversions within their families, protection from evil, and perseverance in the Catholic faith.
A Beautiful Reminder:
Whether worn around the neck, carried in a pocket, kept near a bedside, or placed in a prayer corner, this medal is a tangible reminder that no tear offered to God is ever wasted.
Mary stood faithfully beneath the Cross. She understands every sorrow, every fear, every heartbreak, and she continually leads her children to her Son.
These medals have waited quietly for many years. Perhaps they were waiting just for you!
Each medal will arrive with prayers and information on the devotion to Our Lady of Tears, allowing you to deepen your understanding of this beautiful Catholic devotion and pray with confidence for protection, conversion, and the triumph of Christ's mercy.
Availability: Extremely limited. Once these rediscovered medals are gone, they cannot be replaced from this original casting.
