She is our hope in this rapidly changing world. She is the one who has
the power to unite us, bringing us closer to her Son. Her faith is the pillar
of strength that when we imitate her, becomes our strength as well. And that
strength provides the stepping stones to receive all the other virtues of our
Blessed Mother, that model of perfection.
Mary remains and forever will remain our Mother, and like a
wonderful mother she listens to our pleas and brings us to Jesus in our
prayers. One is so at ease when near one’s mother. With her everything becomes easier, the
weary, discouraged heart, disturbed by storms, finds new hope and strength and
continues on with this life with new strength and courage.
Mary is our model, Mary is our guide, she is our support.
And she comes to us when we call. She is love and our protection against the
temptations and cruelties of this world.
St. Bernard tells us, “if the winds of temptation arise, if
you run into the reefs of trials, look to the star, call upon Mary. In danger, sorrow, or perplexity, think of
Mary, call upon Mary”. Today is a good day to call upon Mary, the Mother of
God, and our mother too. Say the rosary, the most powerful weapon against the
evil one.
