Essay On Jesus Relationship

1556 Words7 Pages

I am looking for that relationship of love which was established by Crucified LORD Jesus at the end of His earthly life, as He addressed His Mother and the disciple that He loved. St. John, the evangelist, had the honour of penning these final words of the LORD Jesus, which gave the Blessed Virgin Mary her new mission as Mother of all mankind.

By these words, I recognize that the Blessed Mother has an active role to play in my faith and spiritual life.

I pray that this meditating and contemplating will bear fruit in my life, and that I will obtain the promises which the LORD God has made in His Word.

    Mary was the Mother of God, meaning she is the human who can lead us the closest to Christ. In chapter 8 of The Enduring Faith & Timeless Truths of Fulton Sheen by Dr. Mark Zia, a devotion to Mary is shown as essential to a relationship with her son. In reverence to this woman, Catholic-Christians give Mary the high form of veneration, called hyperdulia. Against what many Protestant-Christians believe, this is not worship, but respect for the woman who brought Christ into the world.

A mother is turned to in times of distress, as evidenced by this portrait, but whom does a mother turn to when she is burdened and overworked?
