Perfection Series V: Part Three; Mary





Our Lady Mary alone of all the disciples of Christ was not attached to the humanity of Christ. This may seem an impossibility for a mother, but as the Mother of God, as the most humble person ever created, Mary was without egoism or pride. She had detachment, that perfect objectivity of the purest of all the saints.


Her human, motherly love was a unique love of such a high state, the highest state of spiritual love, that she could love freely and completely.

This is why the Catholic Church should declare her Mediatrix of All Grace and Co-Redemptrix.

Through her comes all graces from Christ Her Son. She is a completely free and pure recipient of grace and "full of grace". As Mother, she desires to share grace with us, according to God's Providence.

"Hail Mary, full of grace", Gabriel stated and we state daily. Her perfect love for Her Divine Son means that she dispenses His Life, His Love in complete purity.

Her relationship to the Trinity is the most pure, most complete that any human being can experience. And, she wants to teach each one of us what it means to love freely, without attachment.

Of course, we are limited according to God's designs for our lives. Each one of us is called to be as perfect as we can be, but that perfection is unique and much lower than that of Our Lady.

She is our Star, guiding us on the way through the darkness of the purification of the spirit.

Cling to her and ask her for help, as she is our perfect friend along the way who will lead us to Christ.
