And Mary said: My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my savior; because he has looked upon the humiliation of his servant. Yes, from now onwards all generations will call me blessed, for the Almighty has done great things for me . Holy is his name. lk 1; 46-49 |

If I ever have to say anything about blessed virgin mary!
what would it be ? There are unending words to say, and yet not one can ever dignify Mary ... Full of grace, she won God's favor ! The power of the most high covered her with its shadow, and so, she gave birth to a Holy child : Jesus! Son of God, son of Mary, Jesus became our Redeemer ! Mary said: "you see before you the Lord's servant, let it happen to me as you have said. "-lk,1;38 Obediently,faithfully, heartily she contributed to the salvation project. She accompanied Jesus all the way, since his birth to his passion and in his Kingdom ... Heavenly mother of Jesus, heavenly mother of us ! Oh yes! How can we neglect the episode of John's Gospel: the wedding at Cana; jn,2;3 And they ran out of wine, since the wine provided for the feast had all been used, and the mother of Jesus said to him: "they have no wine." How many times do we feel empty and helpless? then the hand of Mary holding our hand, prays the lord to sustain us ! bringing back the joy to our lives ! Holy lady, Holy heart, Spring of love ! Jesus, the Almighty Father just knew that ! On the cross seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved, standing near her, said to his mother "Woman this is your son"; then to the disciple he said "This is your mother". And from that hour the disciple took her into his home - jn 14;26-27 Heavenly picture!! Oh! blessed Mary, come into my home; Let me be your son, and you be my mother! Let me taste the wine of your loving heart! Let me dance to the tune of your peaceful voice! Walk with me, as you walked with Jesus ! His mother said to the servants: "do whatever he tells you." - jn 2;5 Let me serve God with humility,loyalty and love ! Just like you did, O Mary !Just like you ask us to do! Partner of the Holy Trinity Mother of the whole humanity Queen of peace ... Mary ! (Samia Bakhos) |
