Our lord is Jesus, and Our lady is his blessed mother. She is also our
spiritual mother because he is our brother and his father is our father.
She has given me more comfort than you all can know, as she suffered so much
when her son was carried to the cross for his innocents and for our sins.
She was a human as are we but her faith and obedients never wavered no
matter her lack of understanding of God's purpose for her. If you will let
her fill you with her love I am sure you will feel peace and warmth as well.
As a girl she was a role model for me as she is the ideal of what God
desires a woman should be because he chose her to be the mother of our
blessed lord.
