Marian Spirituality and Membership in the Legion of Mary
Mary instantly accepted God’s call without reservation, no ifs or what ifs, just innocent humility and faith that her God’s request was her command, that her choice must be the humble acceptance of His infinite authority.
For humankind to reach toward Mary’s heights of spiritual glory, we must emulate the humility, devoid of pride, that enabled Mary to accept the role of Mother of God. We must accept all His Divine teachings as defined by His Church. Any deviance from this is tantamount to Pride in questioning the word of the Almighty Creator.
