I continue to be amazed at the amount of energy devoted to Mary, time and energy taken away from the One who should be the only focus of our attention: The Lord Jesus Christ. And most of it is speculation, not Scripture!

Sometimes I really think that Catholics believe they will stand before the Judgement Seat of Mary.

“Energy” devoted to Mary doesn’t detract from Our Lord one bit. He created her, and in turn, she bore Him. They are profoundly linked.

It is all based on Scripture from Genesis through the Book of Revelation. Perhaps it is time for some deeper reflection.
