Mater Christi Meditations on Our Lady Quotes

“Mary was born with an end to fulfill, just as I was. She was created to praise, reverence, and serve God, just as I was; created to save her soul, just as I was. And because of her absolute purity, she understood her end perfectly from the first moment of her existence, and followed it always without swerving. While her mother was offering her to God, she with the full use of her reason (as many hold) offered herself to fulfill the end for which she had been created. She did not know what the particular end was to be - God did not reveal to her till the day of the Incarnation, that she was to be the Mother of God - but she offered herself to do what God wished, she put herself at His disposal.”
