Daily insight into truths about the Mother of God. This book will draw you closer to Mary and also to Jesus—and closer to Jesus is where Mary wants you to be. A fresh turn of phrase, an unexpected train of thought, a piercing insight from writers across the centuries will lead you into the heart of this woman uniquely chosen by God to be his mother, your mother, ready to help you all day, every day. This book features one quote per day accompanied by a brief question or reflection designed to fuel prayer. Major Marian feasts will offer entries specific to the feast day, while other quotes will be more universally about Mary's faith, life, example, and intercession. Quotes are from a wide variety of sources, including popes, the saints, spiritual writings, literature, and the Blessed Mother's own words from approved apparitions.
