Morning Meditation I: The Power of Mary’s Intercession
St. Bernard tells us that Mary has received a twofold fulness of grace. The first was in the Incarnation of the Word Who was made Man in her most holy womb; the second in that fulness of grace which we receive from God by means of her prayers. So that whatever good we have from God is received through the intercession of Mary! If the prayers of the Saints are so powerful with God, how great must be the power of those of His Mother. The former are the prayers of sirvienteslas oraciones de un Madre! The prayers of Mary have the force of a command with Jesus Christ. Hence it is impossible for the Son not to grant a grace for which the Mother asks. “Rejoice, rejoice, O Mary,” says St. Methodius, “thou hast thy Son for a debtor. We are all debtors to Him, but He is a debtor to thee alone.” Blessed, then, is the person for whom Mary prays!
O great Mother of God, pray to Jesus for me! Behold the miseries of my soul and pity me. Pray and never cease to pray until thou seest me safe in Paradise. O Mary, thou art my hope; abandon me not. Holy Mother of God, pray for me.
