Week 1: Jesus Points Us to His Mother (Monday)
I am so thankful that my mom raised me in the church and that I was able to learn and grow from it and eventually make the Catholic faith my own. I love being Catholic and I am so glad she shared that with me. I can't imagine all the struggles that came when Mary said yes to raising the son of God, but she did a beautiful job and I hope one day to be the selfless and loving mother she was. As a Catholic woman, Mary is someone I honor and aspire to mirror her qualities and faith. Unfortunately, I don't hold a candle, but I do ask for her intercession often and I do feel like she guides me.

Mary is an amazing inspiration for me. When I feel like I can't keep trusting in God. I look to what she said at the wedding at Cana "Do whatever he tells you" (John 2:5) which shows her extreme faith in God. I recently realized what a blessing the Rosary is. It is a way to pray to the Virgin Mary and ask her for help to guide you to her Son! How easy can it be? All you have to do is truly want to follow Christ. I pray that Mary guides me closer to her Son and that I may trust God like her.
