Many things are asked from God and are not granted; they are asked from Mary and are obtained. Now why is this? Because God has thus decreed to honor His Mother.

How do you feel about the personal interaction between Jesus and Mother Mary, and its result, in the Gospel account of the Marriage Feast at Cana?

de Montfort has written many books, compiled under the title, "God Alone" as in, God alone suffices. There are those who choose to follow his motto of, "to Jesus, through Mary." If such a thing leads a soul to Jesus, isn't it a good thing? Isn't that important? It was through Mary that God made Jesus man. de Montfort's is one way to Jesus: but isn't being led to Christ the desire of the Christian for himself and others?

God bless you!

John 2:1-11 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)

1And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there.

And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage.

And the wine failing, the mother of Jesus saith to him: They have no wine.

And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? my hour is not yet come.

His mother saith to the waiters: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.

Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three measures apiece.

Jesus saith to them: Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

And Jesus saith to them: Draw out now, and carry to the chief steward of the feast. And they carried it.

And when the chief steward had tasted the water made wine, and knew not whence it was, but the waiters knew who had drawn the water; the chief steward calleth the bridegroom,

10 And saith to him: Every man at first setteth forth good wine, and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse. But thou hast kept the good wine until now.

11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee; and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
