Now that the Feast of the Assumption is almost here, what is your favorite thing about Mary?
I like how she is always there for us, like a mom. ALways ready to listen and help!
 
That is my favorite thing about her. She’s always there for comforting. 🙂

More than One:


  1. *]Her “Yes” to an extraordinary proposal
    *]Her Knowledge of Jesus
    *]Standing at the cross. Mother of Sorrows, Unique Fidelity to God.
 
Just as Mary stood on the path to Golgotha and our Lord’s eyes met her loving gaze I’m sure he was given some strength to keep carrying the cross.
In the same way I like to think that as we are carrying our crosses on the rugged paths of life we need simply to look up to Mary and as she looks at us with her loving gaze we will be given support in carrying our crosses.

Mary Mother of Christ, Be A Mother To Me
 
1: The fact she held Our Lord in her womb, and when He was born she held Him, nursed Him, taught Him, comforted Him. She has such a special relationship with Jesus. It’s beautiful!

2: She stood at the foot of the Cross. It must have been horrible to see her Son die. She had so much strength and trust in God and His plan.

3: The fact that she is a mother to us all…and loves us.
 
What I love about my mother Mary is that she is always ready to interceed for us.She gives us comfort each time we call on ger and pray the rossary.I love my mother Mary.Mother mary please pray for us.
 
I’ve long been impressed by how gentle and tender her motherly love is 🙂
 
I admire her courage in the face of public humiliation. She didn’t worry about what people thought when she was a young betrothed (but unwed) mother, and she didn’t worry about public opinion when her son died the humiliating and public death of a criminal. She was loyal to her child no matter what. That’s what I really need in a mom.
 
Its easy to assimilate the Virgin Mary into your daily prayer life.
 
She had the honor and the privilege of loving God like a mother loves her child!
 
I would be lost without her help.

Our Lady to St. Juan Diego in Mexico, “Hear and let it penetrate into your heart, my dear little son: let nothing discourage you, nothing depress you: let nothing alter your heart or your countenance. Also do not fear any illness or vexation, anxiety or pain. Am I not here who am your Mother? Are you not under my shadow and protection? Am I not your fountain of life? Are you not in the folds of my mantle, in the crossing of my arms? Is there anything else that you need?”

Her humility, and I need her help with that one! My favorite Marian prayer is the Magnficat or as is also called in Eastern Spirituality the Song of the Theotokos. Just a reflection, she is our Lord`s first and best disciple so whenever I fall short, like daily:( I always ask her intercession and guidance to be a better follower of Our Lord. So many examples from her life we can pick to apply.🙂
 
“They have no wine.” John 2:3.
Her compassion for a pair of newlyweds.

She looks after us in small things as well as in the vital ones.

Off to the side:
This was related in a book about Padre Pio, authored by a Lutheran. Presuming that its true: One time, after the elderly Padre Pio was beaten up in his cell by a demon, the other friars found him lying semi-conscious on the floor, with a pillow "neatly tucked under his head". "The Lady in white" (Padre Pios words) frightened off the attacker; and then knelt down on the floor beside one of her distressed children, and placed a pillow under the old man`s head.
