So is the Holy Trinity YOUR secretary, more or less as I said?

The Holy Trinity is YOUR secretary! No. He's my Boss.

The Holy Trinity is your nurse, and secretary. He who came to serve, served long before He came.
Mad Dawg, it sounds good, but it just isn't scriptural. Philippians 2:7 says "But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men" He gave out of love. He sustains out of His good pleasure. He was not a servant before His incarnation and He is not my Secretary now. The Holy Spirit hears me speak and if you want to say anything about it you could say He is my translator to God the Father at times when I can not speak myself. But not my secretary for a secretary is obligated by payment to perform certain functions. God is not obligated by anything in regards to us. Rather, He who owns the Cattle on the thousand hills is willfully benevolent towards us according to His good pleasure.

Back to Mary. I still do not understand how you all believe Mary is hearing and answering all of those prayers? Say you have a Marian Festival of some sort. Thousands upon thousands all pray the Rosary and speak her name all at one time making their petitions known. Is she omniscient that she can hear all of these? Is someone sorting them all out for her? If someone is praying in your hometown and another group is praying in Fatima, is she omnipresent so that she can hear all of those requests?
