Today we celebrate the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. It is very opportune and fortunate that we get consecutive days to celebrate the love of Jesus as well as the love of our Blessed Virgin. As the Mary was the most beloved of Jesus, we know in celebrating her love for us, we are in a way celebrating God's love for each one us. Mary who tended Jesus, brought him up in his human life and was with him at the foot of the cross will always be with us in our moments of joy as well as in our days of struggle. Mary will come to our aid and intercede for us all the time in our lives. Even without being asked, she interceded for the distressed family at Cana when their wine ran out at the wedding.Our beloved mother will,hence, be interceding for us even when we are not aware of our needs.
The prayer "Memorare" beautifully captures the compassion and love of Mary for every one of her devoted followers. Mary, beloved Mother, please pray for all of us all the time in our lives and help us to walk the paths of life as true followers of your beloved Son.
