committing everything about themselves entirely to Mary. This leaves no room for Christ whatsoever.

This prayer only demonstrates that the Catholic faithful is not confused between human nature of Mary, whom he loves and divine properties of Christ Whom he worships. He also probably is not thinking of himself as a heap of meat and bones that cannot be committed to two people entirely at the same time.

Come to Christ today

I am with Christ today. And with Mary. I am Catholic.

To keep this post in context, I repost the prayer in question.

The Morning Consecration to Mary

My Queen, My Mother, I offer myself entirely to thee.

And to show my devotion to thee,

I offer thee this day, my eyes,

my ears, my mouth, my heart,

my whole being without reserve.

Wherefore, good Mother, as I am thine own, keep me, guard me as thy property and possession.

We now join our conversation. Annalex began with:

EALGEONE: committing everything about themselves entirely to Mary. This leaves no room for Christ whatsoever.

ANNALEX: This prayer only demonstrates that the Catholic faithful is not confused between human nature of Mary, whom he loves and divine properties of Christ Whom he worships. He also probably is not thinking of himself as a heap of meat and bones that cannot be committed to two people entirely at the same time.

Deuteronomy 6:5

You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.

Luke 10:27

And he answered, "YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND; AND YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."
