Thomas Howard says this of Mary,
"No other creature in heaven or earth has ever been drawn into the mystery of God himself as has this woman. No seraph has ever borne offspring to the Holy Ghost. No archangel has ever suckled the Second Person of the Trinity. No heavenly grandee has reared the Messiah. This participation in, and cooperation with, the most secret reaches of the mystery of redemption is reserved for one among all creatures in heaven and earth."
How beautiful! |
