Happy National women's Day.... I didn't realize what gift this woman was and is and how nesscary the Lord has placed her in His glorious plan revealing to us our dignity.... If she is Jesus's Mother then she is mine too help us oh Lord by your power as you did with Our Blessed Mother, that I may too be... FULL OF GRACE. "The Church sees in Mary the highest expression of the feminine genius and she finds in her a source of constant inspiration. Mary called herself the hand...maid of the Lord (Lk 1:38). Through obedience to the Word of God she accepted her lofty yet not easy vocation as wife and mother in the family of Nazareth. Putting herself at God’s service, she also put herself at the service of others: a service of love. Precisely through this service Mary was able to experience in her life a mysterious, but authentic reign. It is not by chance that she is invoked as Queen of heaven and earth. The entire community of believers thus invokes her; many nations and peoples call upon her as their Queen. For her, to reign is to serve! Her service is to reign! -POPE ST. JOHN PAUL II, Letter to Women, n. 10, June 29th, 1995
