in her Heart she experienced a more intense love for her Son - on the purely natural level - than did any other mother, for no other Son was as lovable, and no mother’s heart was as capable of love, for none was ever as pure. And for the same reason, she suffered when her Son suffered as did no other mother.

"God has told us now, through Fatima, that we can make reparation to Him if we repair the suffering we have caused her. The Heart that received the fullness of participation in the divine life, that knew the affections of a mother for Jesus Christ during the years at Nazareth, that went through the agony of seeing Him die, that honors Him in heaven more than all the rest of creation, is now gloriously proclaimed by Him through Fatima." (VISION OF FATIMA, P. 211) TO JESUS THROUGH MARY

Right now I am so full of emotion and affection for our Lady and gratitude for the disposition of her heart that I can’t really contribute to this thread. Thanks for putting it up though.

Thank you so much for posting this. Just reading it has really lifted me up, and I am so grateful.

I removed the “or by invitation only” from your tag. It is a “given” by the guidelines for the Religion Forum. And I don’t want a Caucus thread to turn into a long string of “oh, please - oh, please - may I?.”

Mary was the faithful disciple..from her first yes to her suffering at the foot of the cross.
She never faltered.
