When we lift our hearts to God, it is most fitting that we go by way of Our Blessed Mother. For she receives even the smallest of our prayers with a tenderness that makes them beautiful, and she offers them to God with a love greater than our own. In this way, she stands as a gentle and faithful messenger between our souls and Heaven.
St. Alphonsus Liguori reminds us that Mary has been given to all as a loving helper, ever ready to intercede for her children. She keeps nothing for herself, but shares freely the graces entrusted to her by God. Like a devoted mother, she watches over each soul with care, desiring that none be lost, but that all may be safely led to her Son.
We need never hesitate to go to her. In moments of weakness, she strengthens us. When our prayers feel uncertain, she guides them quietly and surely. And when we entrust ourselves to her care, she draws us ever closer to Jesus.
Let us, then, especially in this blessed Month of Mary, turn to her with confidence and love, knowing that she listens always—and never turns us away.
