...knowing something as important as the way I feel about Mary.

Isn't this a great picture? Look at the baby's face. So sweet, so innocent.

What it all boils down to is this...

No matter how much veneration and honor we give to Mary,it will always pale in comparison to the honor given to Mary by Jesus. Mary is His Greatest created creature.
Thus whatever honor we give to Mary is honor given to God the creator

Saint Louis De Montfort expresses this beautifully when he says....

God the Father is glorified because we are honoring the most perfect of his creatures

God the son is glorified because we are praising his most pure Mother

God the Holy Spirit is glorified because we our lost in admiration of the graces to which he has filled Her

Therefore when we Honor Mary ,God is Glorified

I wish you a Blessed Evening
