This Tender and Loving Mother

Reflections on Mary

By Leo John Dehon, SCJ

Thursday, December 5, 2019

By her consent, Mary accepted the invitation to become the mother of the Redeemer.  She accepted not only the honor and dignity of this maternity, but also the suffering and sacrifices attached to it.  She declared that she was ready to fulfill the will of God in everything, to be his handmaid.  This is what constitutes a victim.  The perfection of all virtues consists in this.
