Doesn’t common sense say that if prayers in heaven (not to mention for Catholics believing also in prayers of Mary, who they have so exalted) for us could be prayed, with results, that every one of their prayers would have to be answered perfectly, as they wouldn’t be encumbered with the unbelief that naturally hinders almost all humans most of the time on earth. We see through a glass dimly. They are in the presence of The LORD. To be absent from the body is to be present with The LORD. Truly their prayers, on mass, would have been so perfect and powerful as to have rendered all our problems prayed for by them on earth taken care of a long time ago, if common sense follows logic.

We have this time on earth to shine and cause eternal differences. That is why it is so important that we do all that we can do for our LORD while we can. We have all eternity to be in the presence of our LORD in heaven. We just have this short time to impact the souls around us and bring glory to God in the special way that only those living on this earth, in this wicked world can.

Matthew 6:19
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
6:20
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

Why; 'Mary' herself said:

11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.
