Wednesday 31 May 2006 - The visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary


Many times we forget the role Our Lady has played throughout history, and still plays in our faith and within the Church. Our Lady is the queen of all the saints and is closest to Jesus and the Trinity. Because of this closeness, Mary has a special power of intercession, such as at the wedding feast at Cana when she said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you." (John 2:5) Our Lady has a special ability to pray with us and for us before her Son, Jesus. In times of serious trial and difficulty we need to pray and ask Our Lady to help us, and to intercede for us before God. With our firm will, prayers, and Our Lady's help, miracles happen.
With every good wish in Christ,
