Minister of Goodness

Mary is the minister of God in the department of goodness. She does not condemn and she does not tear one apart. Instead she revives and vivifies all that is presented to her. A mother's love has limits, hers does not.

Go to Mary. Go to that incomparable Mother, and believe that she will never make any difference between you and her dear Son. She will consider you as the flesh of her flesh, the bones of her bones; She will see you as another Jesus Christ on earth. The love she has for her Son is the measure of the love she feels for you.

Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet

French bishop and theologian renowned for his sermons (1627- 1704)
