A laudíssima santa Virgem Maria é o molde de como se seguir Nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo. Tudo nela aponta para o Seu divino e glorioso Filho. Todo coração cristão, tocado pela verdadeira fé, explode de amor por sua Mãe espiritual, amável e doce.
Me: Man, Pete. I've had such a rough day.
St. Peter: Hey man, suffering can be a blessing! You know, Christ suffered for the world.
Me: Yeah, that's true.
St. Peter: Then He went to preach in spirit jail.
Me: wait, what?
Peter: Anyway, Baptism saves.
[Mary] does not say men will speak all manner of good of her, praise her virtues, exalt her virginity or her humility, or sing of what she has done. But for this one thing alone, that God regarded her, men will call her blessed.
— Martin Luther, The Magnificat
