At the foot of the Cross our Lord relayed this request to His Beloved Mother: “Woman behold Your Son,” and to St. John, His beloved disciple, He said: “Son behold your Mother.”The Fathers of the Church tell us that St. John represents all Christians who faithfully and willingly follow our Lord Jesus Christ. The disciple took Mary into his home would mean he took her into his heart.
Never would devotion to the blessed Mother distract us or turn us away from our love and commitment to Jesus, Our Lord and Saviour. On the contrary, far from straying our path to Jesus, it actually facilitates our easy union with Jesus Christ. According to St. Bernard Clairvaux, it is by the will of God that graces that come to earth should pass through the hands of Our Lady. He says that it is God’s prerogative to make that decision. Mary is a powerful advocate who can obtain from the Judge all graces for her servants.
One day St. Bridget heard the conversation of Jesus and His beloved Mother Mary. Jesus was addressing His mother in the following words: “Ask from Me what you wish; for your petition cannot be fruitless. My mother, ask as much as you please; for I shall hear all your prayers.” According to St. Alphonsus de Ligouri there is no sinner, however abandoned, whom Mary cannot save by her intercession.
In fact, the reason why the devil could not totally destroy the society and the Church is because we still have devotion to Mary.
