"Him whom the
heavens cannot contain, the womb of one woman
bore.
She
ruled our Ruler. She carried Him in whom we all are.
She gave
milk to our Bread." - St Augustine, Sermon 184
"When
we go before Jesus on the altar,
we always find Him with Mary His
Mother,
as
the magi did at Bethlehem (Mt 2:11).
And
Jesus in the sacred Host,
from
the altar of our hearts,
can
repeat to each one of us what He said to
St
John the Evangelist from the altar of Calvary ,
Behold thy
Mother (Jn 19:27).

Stefano Manelli, O.F.M.
