Mary has to be kept in our heart. Through the effusion of the Spirit, we pass to be the true love to the Church and to the sacraments and to Mary. Whomever receives the outpouring of the Holy Spirit does not have difficulty in loving Jesus in the Eucharist. “I will put hatred between you and the Woman. Between your descendants and hers. She will strike your head and you will strike her heal. (cf Gen. 3:15)
Our Lady is our mother and companion in battle. She is also the victor. In the same way, our toughest battle is against evil. Confronting evil with our own human force is not enough. It is necessary to seek the force of God. And Mary intercedes to God for us.
Mary brings the Word of God in our heart. In the same way, the word of God confirms her presence.:
In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” Lk 1:26-28
The word of God narrates the divine choice through Mary before so many woman. She that generated Jesus in her womb is a present from God to humanity.
From the cross Jesus said to John, the disciple most loves: Son this is your mother. And he said to Mary: Woman, this is your son.” John represents the Church and receives Mary as mother of all of us. (John 19:25)
How many children, men and women do whatever think to free themselves of loneliness, without success. Our Lady says: ‘My soul glorifies God” Following the example of the Mother of God, we win over afflictions when our soul is interiorly in the presence of the Lord.
“for the Mighty One has done great things for me—holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation.” (Lc 1:49-50)
The Mother of Jesus and completer of the word of God, Mary that is filled with the Holy Spirit is an example of the missionary woman.
