Mary said,
“Listen, and let it penetrate your heart, my dear little son; do not be troubled or weighted down with grief. Do not fear any illness or vexation, anxiety or pain. Am I not here who am your Mother? Are you not under my shadow and protection? Am I not your fountain of life? Are you not in the folds of my mantle? In the crossing of my arms? Is there anything else you need?”
Of course, we think we need so much; especially this time of year when our list for gifts might go on and on.
But, today we can pause to remember that having Mary remember us, wrapped in her mantle, we need little else.
