“Think of what the saints have done for their neighbor because they loved God. But what Saint’s love for God can match Mary’s? She loved Him more in the first moment of her existence than all the Saints and angels ever loved Him or will love Him. Our Lady herself revealed to Sister Mary Crucified that the fire of her love was most extreme. If Heaven and earth were placed in it, they would be instantly consumed. And the ardors of the seraphim, compared with it, are like cool breezes. Just as there is not among all the Blessed who loves God as Mary does, so there is no one, after God, who loves us as much as this most loving Mother does. Furthermore, if we heaped together all the love of all the mothers that have children, all the love of the husbands and wives, all the love the angels and Saints have for their clients, it could never equal Mary’s love for even a single soul.” --SAINT ALPHONSUS MARIA LIGUORI.http://fredbroom.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-saints-love-maryso-should-you.html
