 MARCH 25 Mary and Jesus United |
PRAYER. Dear Jesus, Your Holy Mother cooperated with the divine plan for the human race. Let me try to imitate her in her obedience and service to You. |
|
AS to Mary, Christ derived His manhood
from her, and so had an especial unity
of nature with her; and this wondrous
relationship between God and man it is
perhaps impossible for us to dwell much upon.
We had better only think of her with her Son, never separating her from Him, but using her name as a memorial of His great condescension in stooping from heaven, and not abhorring the Virgin's womb. |
