Thank you for caring and loving us so much Mama Mary!

Can you imagine how the perfect mother loves?  The perfect mother who cries tears because her children are in danger.  They have wandered too far off into the darkness and she comes to call them close to her Son.  The several apparitions made to the simple-Bernadette, Francisco, Lucia, Jacinta, Juan Diego, Margaret Mary and the many, many others.  By speaking to them, she furnished us with directions of prayer, fasting, repentance….all things that cost nothing but our heart and our time…all  to get back to safe abode God’s protection.  

How the evil one hates this very powerful strong adversary- the poor, simple, humble obedient Mary.  She represents the perfect mother, the perfect daughter and the perfect spouse.  Why?  Because Love perfected her vocation, her actions, her being.  Sin numbs people shielding graces but for the Blessed Mother devoid of sin, the grace of God shone through her powerfully in the fullness of life and she came to share the Life that was shining in and through her.  She wants us to hold her hand and she will lead us through the uncertainties of life.  Life is changing constantly and we’ve seen great big changes over the past few years, but one thing that does not change is God love.  That’s why he’s sent and shared his mother, the model of God’s of perfect handiwork.  

Our mother is our constant and perpetual help.  At the throne room she is constantly interceding before God for us.  Those that come to her to ask for help, she calls out their names before the Almighty presence of God.  He never says no to her.  Even before Jesus started his public ministry, she expedited its coming because she cares for our situations.  In that particular case in the wedding of Cana, she didn’t even have to be asked to help….and that tells you something.  Invite her to every aspect of your life like they did at the wedding, and she will take care of your needs.  He cannot say no to her, because he created the Ten Commandments, the 4th being honor your father and mother….subjecting himself to the laws that he has made.

In excruciating pain Jesus hung on the cross,  pouring out his blood and his life to humanity to bridge us to the Father.  Yet….he still gave us in his Last Will and Testament the foe of the ancient one…he gave us his mother, her heart stricken with the most pain you can possibly endure.  He wanted to have us bring  her under our roof.  St John represents us, “the beloved.”    You know the saying, “Mi casa es tu casa.”  In this act he was saying, “Mi mama es tu mama.”  The undefeatable foe of Satan comes into our home.  Her very presence terrifies him.  That’s how important she is.  But the devil has many fooled because he doesn’t want us to use his greatest enemy.

Scientifically they share one Blood as evidenced in the Eucharistic Miracles.  In the testing of the blood, there was found to be one set of chromosomes, so he got her looks, his genetic makeup, he got her blood.  Their hearts beat in proximate intimacy in her womb- no one got closer to His Heart than she.  And He chose so.

He gave her His Holy Spirit to dwell perpetually in her heart, his royalty to be the Queen of Heaven and Earth, a miraculous maternity that didn’t go the normal route of natural law.  They shared the Love to do the Father’s Will.  

So with a heart full of Love, I give my tribute to the Blessed Virgin, our mother.  Mama Mary, you are crowned with the highest crown- Motherhood.  I greet you Happy Mother’s day and thank you for all that you do.   May the devotion and love of those who understand your role be a consolation in your most Immaculate Heart.

Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring—those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus. ~. Revelations : 17
