Mary is never invoked in vain…Mary is the Queen of Martyrs because next to Jesus she suffered more than anyone else ever suffered. (Mary did not suffer physically. Hers were sufferings of the soul. Her heart was pierced with the sword of sorrow). But why did she have to suffer at all? It is because God sends sufferings to those whom He loves, and the more He loves them, the greater the sufferings He sends them…I will remember all of this then when the Lord gives me some little splinter of the cross to carry. I will not so easily complain and be unhappy.
Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S.
