How tragic for Mary to be so misrepresented as to become an idol to many.

Anything to take the focus away from what Jesus did.

What a beautiful painting.
Ave, Maria!
How it must break Jesus' heart that people fail to honor his most beautiful mother.

Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yes, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

What’s tragic is Mary becoming a stalking horse for those who use “righteous indignation” as a substitute for the grace of God.

I have always admired that paining: Song of the Angels (1881) by French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825-1905)

Thank you-— so very beautiful. It is a balm which heals our hearts and shields us from the ugliness in this world.
Blessed be God in His angels and in His saints.

Mary is certainly a singularily unique human. Daughter of the Father, Mother of the Son, and Spouse of the Holy Spirit. The only one in the Holy Scripture who has been described as “Full of Grace”.

John 19:26-27 “When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! (27) Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own {home}.”

The Mother of Our Lord is a M O T H E R ... a most sacred role indeed just for we mortals. Image, Mary willingly accepted the greatest honor to any Human ever before. If I could sing like
THIS FELLA I would do so. Thanks be to God for the fidelity of The Mother of Our Lord.

(Believing they cannot be deceived, they cannot be convinced when they are deceived.)
And most importantly, Mary accepted that honor with the utmost humility.
