“[The Immaculata] is the Mother of God, the Mother of divine grace, the Mediatrix of all graces that overflow on souls from the Divine Heart.” St. Maximillian Kolbe
This icon depicting the Ascension of our Lord. In the center directly beneath our ascending Lord is Mary.
Mary is the connecting point between Heaven and earth. It is through Mary that the Son was incarnate as a man in Jesus.
Mary is a great treasure to our world, our Church and to each and every one of us. Mary is the treasure map that leads and points to the X which is Jesus. Without Mary, we would not have Jesus, not be able to know Him.
Mary stood beside the Cross along with His beloved Apostle and the holy women who had always followed Him.
Mary loves her Son with a love greater than that of any mother, which is the greatest love possible on earth.
She loves Jesus with the heart of a Mother and of a Virgin – He is her only treasure.
Moreover, she loves Him, not only as her Son but, also as her God.
Precisely because she loves Him as her God, her love was in perfect harmony with the divine will.
It is from her love and unity with the Divine Will that she is always the map pointing to the greatest treasure, Jesus.
Seek this great treasure. Mary marks the spot I which she will point to her Son.
