Mary is the most sure path to heaven. She is the mediatrix of grace (great mediator between God and us). She is the Second Eve and the new Ark of the Covenant (carried Jesus). We put beautiful red and white roses on her crown in heaven when we say the rosary. She has appeared in many apparitions and even prayed the Rosary with the Fatima children. She was conceived in St. Anne’s womb without Original sin because God wanted His Son to be in the cleanest purest vessel. Mary’s Fiat “Yes” to God at the Annunciation is a perfect model for us. This is how we are called to respond to God when He calls us for our special mission.

     Today, consecrate yourself to Mary (several prayers on the Internet), say a Hail Mary, and try in some way to honor her more and bring her into your home and life.

Christian YOLO!
