“One should always remember that such virtues as surrender, humility, obedience, and the ability to serve and sacrifice presuppose a high degree of spiritual activity, enabling one to ignore one’s own selfish demands. Mary is never servile but free and responsible.”

-Jutta Burggraf

Today’s Reflection:
