greatest faith, hope & love
of all who have ever lived, who had the greatest faith, hope and love?
besides Jesus, both God and man, Mary, His mother, had the greatest faith, hope and love of any person who ever lived.
When Mary was a young teenager, she accepted that she would be the mother of God. She didn't know how. She didn't ask why. She didn't ask what was "in it" for her. She simply said yes. What extraordinary faith!
Suffering was what was "in it" for Mary. She stood with Jesus when He was ridiculed, threatened, betrayed by one closest to Him, arrested, tried by a kangaroo court of religious leaders, wrongly condemned to death, denied by another of His chosen, scourged, tortured, and nailed to and hung on a cross until He died. Mary never wavered.
Mary in her life lived faith, hope and love more than any other human being.
Mary, mother of God, pray for us.
