Mystery of the Mediatrix

Pointing the way,
Mary from Galilee
somehow hears praying,
from you and me.
How does this happen,
that she can know
since she’s a real person,
who lived long ago?
It’s Christ she shows:
only Source for living.
Health and happiness are God's giving.
It’s not from her hand,
nor her desire,
but hand in hand we go to the Son
... her mother’s work begun.
Jesus built a mystical family:
He is the vine, and we are branches, (John 15:5)
abiding in Him, we’re like a tree,
she points the way for us to see.
His mother, our mother,
we love one another.
She exists with Him,
and we the children,
cradled in love
and motherly care -
in us the Son she bears -
holding us as she held Him
we each become His tangible limb!
