MOTHER OF JESUS

Thank you, Mary, for always pointing us to Jesus. Thank you, Jesus, for pointing us to Mary. This mutual pointing tells us so much about the love between you. We are all invited to share in it. Someone once said that the simplest, yet deepest, Marian spirituality consists in loving Jesus as Mary loves Him and loving Mary as Jesus loves Her. Everything else flows from this. It sounds very simple, and—if we don’t complicate it—it really can be simple. Everyone can discover the meaning of these words by reflecting on them, but even more so by putting them into practice through concrete acts of love. Starting right now. How do you love Jesus, Mary? How do you show Him your love? One of millions of examples: teach me, Mary, to receive Jesus in Holy Communion just as you received Him into your body, into your hands, into your life… Mother of Jesus and our Mother—pray for us
