Mary is above us, but she received that extraordinary grace for our sake so that she can serve and help us. Now we can become envious on Mary, or we can be thankful and happy how she took part in Gods salvation plan and recognize her as our good mother who we can ask for intercession. God is just; He gives away grace so that we can serve others.
Meditatio by John Joseph
She is there..
She is always there..
From the absolute Abandonment of the
Cave...
To the absolute
Abandonment of
The Cross...
She is here..
She is always here!
Whether sharing a
Room with Rodin and
Rembrandt or ..
Hanging from Hooks
In beer filled Night air
She is there...
Madre Dios!
Marie! Ma Mere!
Mary! My Mother!
by John Joseph Hawkins
Mystical Rose!
Flower God chose!
His Son's repose!
You held Him first in your precious womb
You cared and watched over the bloom
And finally beneath the Cross's gloom
O Mother most fair!
You are always there!
In You now we place our care!
Into your tender heart
Our pledge is to become part
To you we pray impart
The Master's Loving Art!
Amen
Elizabeth says in Luke 1:45
And blessed art thou that hast believed, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord.
Luke 11:28 But he [Jesus] said: Yea rather, blessed are they who hear the word of God, and keep it.
Mary
She smiles in
Sorrow
Her sighs are borrowed
By the cleaning lady
Who dusts her feet
Whether sharing a Room
With Rodin and Rembrandt or Hanging
From Hooks In
Beer filled Night air
She is there
My Lady you bore
Your world
And watched Him
Die among
A thousand teeth
That bit the day
And though He claims
The fame
You still remain
Your face on every corner
Your smiles behind
The tears of one hundred
Grandmothers who
See day fade
All who have lost
Show the proof of their
Gain by your look
In their eyes...
Your mouth has
Haunted lost chisels
And brushes
And strong with each
New birth...
As when you felt
His death...
Your head curves gently
As the world breathes...
Meditatio by John Joseph
Our Almighty Father
Chose His Ideal student
..Mary and she alone
Kept Perfect attendance
Even To the Father's
Final Class..
The Crucifixion
Everybody always says Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared as a mestizo, but if you actually study the authentic image (not a copy or reproduction), her features are are starkly European. I'll grant you the dark hair, but her nose is fine and her cheeks are even ruddy. She does not look Mexican.
Not only that, but if you compare the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe with Our Lady of Czestochowa -- it helps to lighten to the exposure on the matter to be able to are her features since it has been darkened with age -- the facial features of Out Lady in both are nearly identical. It is clearly the same woman. Out Lady of Czestochowa as I understand is the most likely candidate for the portait of Our Lady by St Luke.
I think these are both authentic images of Our Lady. Therefore I believe we should do away with this modern (dare I say, modernist) notion that Mary is ever morphing to honor all cultures and has no knowable physical identity. She wears different clothes with appearance, but there again she's not wrapped in their national flag.
We can possibly infer from how Our Lord changed His appearance after His resurrection -- for example to the appearance of a gardener outside the tomb or a stranger on the road to Emmaus -- that Mary perhaps has this ability as well. Nonetheless, I think the physical evidence -- her historical and supernatural portaits -- show her actual face...albeit the portaits are darkened and damaged with age (much more so Czestochowa) and obscure intimacy.
Apocalypse 12: 17
And the dragon was angry against the woman: and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

1. Half of Jesus DNA was flesh from Mary, the other half was divine from His Father, so Mary was the mother of his flesh nature only, thus she is not regarded as the mother of God.
2. Also, if the official RCC doctrine of the “Immaculate Conception” is true, which states Mary was born without original sin, that would mean Jesus was never born of the flesh, but only divine. That would have made Him ineligible to fulfill the sacrificial requirement for justice under the Law, and no one has received salvation through Him.
3. Mary did not remain a virgin, she had relations with her husband ( *he knew her* ) after the birth of Jesus:
(Matt 1:24) Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
(Matt 1:25) And *knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son:* and he called his name JESUS.
4. *Mary also had four sons beside Jesus* (only James believed in Him as the Christ) *and several daughters.* Of course God blessed her with many children. (The neighborhood Jesus grew up in thought He was the boy next door, not the Messiah, so He couldn't work many miracles there because of their unbelief).
(Matt 13:55) *Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?*
(Matt 13:56) *And his sisters, are they not all with us?* Whence then hath this [man] all these things?
(Matt 13:57) And *they were offended in him.* But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
(Matt 13:58) And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
