Blessed are Thou among women and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb - Jesus
My mother is the special woman to which Genesis 3:15 refers. She is the one with the power to crush the head of the serpent, she, whose descendants are humble and strong leads the opposition against the devil and his followers.
From the moment of the Incarnation, She was espoused with the Holy Spirit, who filled her with graces and gifts never before received. I, the Son of God and the fruit of the blessed womb of Mary, came to the world to do my work as Saviour of the world. Because of this, She was filled with Grace, exalted and blessed among all women. Blessed are those who receive the Holy Spirit; just as Elizabeth, they acknowledge the dignity of Mary. Their spirits rejoice when they enter into the Presence of the Mother of the Creator, the Queen of Heaven, the perfect daughter of God the Father, the spouse of the Holy Spirit. God exalts the humble and crushes the proud, Mary is the humblest of all creatures and for this reason has been exalted for her highest dignity, acknowledged and granted by the Holy Trinity. Everyone who honours my Mother honours the Holy Trinity, who has honoured this Most Blessed Virgin with such exalted ministries. My Father rejoices for being the creator of this temple of perfections. In her womb He destined to place His Holy Word in the person of His only begotten Son. I rejoice as the Word of God who found a perfect dwelling, in which I took my body and blood, from the beginning destined to be the Salvation of men. The Holy Spirit rejoices for having had this hypostatic union between God and humanity through the most worthy of creatures. Elizabeth asked herself, who am I, that the Mother of God honours me with her visitation? For the Glory of God, my mother visits all the sons of God who in the order of Grace are her own children. She is the sweet humble way that takes souls to the knowledge of their Saviour, every soul is to her as a flower that she takes care of and beautifies in the Garden of Her Immaculate Heart. Her voice is sweet and only aspires one thing, to give Glory to God through the Grace that She has been filled with, her words for every soul are the same ones that were heard in the passage of the Wedding of Canna, “Do whatever He tells you” For this reason, all those who accept my Mother as their own mother and receive Her with love in their hearts and give Glory to God with their devotion to Her, are predestined souls who enjoy the same love that I have for my Mother.
