Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.
(John 19:27)
Mother Mary, your Son gave you to us through his beloved disciple, and us to you. I want to take you into my heart. You said so little that was recorded in the Gospels, and yet your words have strengthened, guided, and inspired me all my life. “Be it done unto me” reminds me that I am God’s instrument. “Do whatever he tells you” teaches me to trust him. With you, “my soul magnifies the Lord.”
You who consented to give flesh to Divinity, pray for me.
