I know and it is so sad that someone took time to praise Mary that could have been given to Christ, my Savior and my King. God desires all the glory..not just some of it

All things are to be for His glory.

One can deceive oneself and say honoring Mary(or the saints) is praising God, but that is pure self deception

What? Taking time to praise Mary but not Christ? How do you see that in what I posted? The whole poem is in praise of Christ! It’s just that Christ could not be the “Sacred Bread” without the “wheat.” How can you fail to see that? (Or maybe you didn’t even read it.)

Do you never look at a sunset and say “Thank you, Lord, for creating this beauty?” If you don’t you are very ungrateful. The five points of prayer include not only Praise, but Thanksgiving. We are extremely ungrateful if we do not thank God for creating Mary and thereby giving us Jesus our Savior. And to not thank God for the example of the holy lives of the saints is also very ungrateful.
