My husband is using a power tool at the moment. Every once in awhile, it sounds like a crying puppy.Our standard-size poodle had to be locked away in the laundry room. Every time she hears the sound, she comes running to see if there is a puppy who needs a mama.
Her last litter was two years ago.
The Blessed Mother didn't stop mothering when Jesus Ascended. She didn't stop mothering the Church after her Assumption. A mother never stops mothering.
She hears a cry, no matter how many years have gone by, and she runs to see what she can do to help.
We have a Mother who can truly help. She is the Queen Mother to the King of Kings. And when you cry out for help, she comes running.
Oh sure, the Enemy would love to lock her up in a room somewhere. He would like to keep her from coming to our aid when we cry out. But there are some things he cannot touch. And he has never been able to touch Our Lady.
She's listening for your cry.
And she will enlist the help of all of Heaven if necessary to bring you aid and comfort.
Because that's what mothers do.
This post made me cry... I'm so glad she's my mother. I could really use her right now.
