Blessed Is The Womb Which Bore You

Luke 11:27-28
At that time, as Jesus was speaking to the multitudes, a certain woman from the crowd lifted up her voice and said to Him, Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts that nursed You.

In an age where it seems technology
is replacing the need for relationships, how many of us can honestly say, we
value our relationship with the Blessed Virgin Mary? My personal story of conversion back to the
true Faith first starts with a turning back to Our Lady. I was a man who at one time used to not see
much when gazing upon her image being as blind as I was but now there is not a
day that goes by that I do not give thanks.
There is not a day that goes by that we all shouldn’t pass up the
opportunity in proclaiming, “Blessed art the Womb which bore you and the
breasts which nursed you”. For it was in
the literal flesh of Mary that Our Flesh (Christ) came into this world. And it is by His Flesh that I stay united to
Her in hopes of “leaving this world”.
That is to be understood twofold. First by detaching from the world and our literal passing on into the next life. Indeed, those close to Mary are thankful and thus let us no longer make
excuse trying to rationalize why we push her to the side as I once did. No, rather, let us each day, as her child hide
in her womb and suck at her breast. For
it is through the vessel of Mary we have Jesus and thus ultimately through
Mary, we too obtain grace. Let us
examine further “the womb and breasts of Mary”.
Hiding In Mary. It was the Ark in the Old Testament which
preserved the elect from God’s Justice in the Flood and so too must we enter
into the New Ark Mary in order to preserve us from the Justice coming (which is
owed unto us all). In other terms, as I
have mentioned, the Blessed Virgin Mary is Paradise’s Tree, of which, every
eagle hides in as the Rays of Justice come down from the skies above. The New World Order has their underground
bunkers and we have Mary! This is a no brainer
as to whom is really safe! We must enter
into the Womb of Mary so that we can refrain from this word and all of its
noise. This is seemingly a daunting task
to so many including those who profess to be Catholic and yet it is grace that
we have the hopes in achieving this. St.
Anthony the Great once said that when the Church and world become one that know
it is the end and this of course happened at Vatican II. He went on further to explain that there was
a barrier between the Church and the world and what is this barrier? I tell you that this barrier is our
Lady. She truly helps to keep us from
all the allurements which surround us which sadly the Novus Ordites (in
general) do not. Those who love this
world truly do not love Christ and those who would rather be one with this
world rather than hiding in Mary shall receive no special protection in the
days ahead.
Her Womb provides a place to grow. Not only does her Womb protect as a barrier
from the world, the flesh and the devil, in her is a place for us to grow in
Selfless Love. What Mother does not want
to see the best for her own flesh and blood?
Thus, a woman is a house for her own even as Mary is for Catholics and
the true Church. She is a Fortress of
the Soul. She has Walls which are firm
and which none of the enemies can breach if we choose so to remain in her. By staying close to Mary we keep focus on
staying in a state of grace. By speaking
to her we can ultimately understand our own faults and weaknesses. Her Womb once expanded in Selfless Love as a “House
for our Redeemer” and thus meditate today how She too is a house for us. Yes, her womb is an eagles training ground we
may say very bluntly. Yet, how many will
take advantage of this opportunity to grow in the virtues and Selfless Love
itself?
Her breasts nurture. A small child grows hidden away from the
world much like we, spiritual children of Mary, stay united to Her and grow in
grace. But we also must stay at her
breast to continually receive those graces which God has prepared for us. We recognize that without this nurturing we
simply cannot grow into our full spiritual capacity.
What Mother wants to see her child not healthy upon and after birth? Thus, it is with Mary, who feeds us with the
hopes of us arriving at our full potential that we might see the Face of God
upon our own “death”. Mary is always fed
because in her Faith She remained perfectly united to Gods Will at all
times. She never once sinned. Thus, if She is fed from our Divine Source
and we remain in Her, how then, are we not fed?
Yes, indeed, we eat abundantly of divine things through Mary whose Heart
is One with the Son. Let us not fool
ourselves as certain heretics do. In the
end, in these times of “uncertainty” let us turn to the Blessed Virgin Mary for
her certain protection and nurturing that we might grow closer to God and be more
like Her Son Our Lord and King! We need
Mary and if God, ultimately needed a place to stay and be nurtured from and
chose Mary….well then so do I! Amen
