Being another Mary

Living in a personal relationship with Mary is a very deep spiritual experience. One will come to understand more what the silence of Mary is all about. The silence of Mary reflects upon her obedience to God, by doing the will of God in its fullness, by loving and embracing the mission she was entrusted with, that is, to be the Mother of Jesus and of all mankind.

When one really gives his life, to faithfully live a personal relationship with Mary, one will be transformed through the Holy Spirit, to be another Mary to humanity. Being another Mary, in the real sense of Mary’s spiritual relationship with the Holy Trinity, is possible for mankind. It is Mary’s desire to see her children being like her for the good of humanity.

Being another Mary to society is a gift to humanity. Mary needs to be more known and accepted in peoples’ lives. When one lives his life by being another Mary, the spiritual silence of Mary will penetrate the deepest noise and will break any wall that prevents mankind from being closer to her son Jesus and experiencing the love of the Father in a personal way.

To be another Mary is possible if we let her as a mother take care of our life by taking us to her Son, in order to faithfully accept Jesus and to be His disciples.
