“The love that this good mother bears us is so great that as soon as she perceives our wants, she comes to our assistance. She comes before she is called.”

                                                                           Richard of St.Lawrence

For Reflection:             

Consider Mary’s love in light of her title of Immaculate Conception (Paragraphs 490-493 Catechism of the Catholic Church). Why do you think her love is the greatest love any creature can have for another? To what extent does this increase your confidence in her maternal beatitude?
