To gaze on you, O Mother...



It is precisely by looking at Mary's face that we can see more clearly than in any other way the beauty, goodness, and mercy of God. In her face we can truly perceive the divine light. ~Pope Benedict XVI

Mother of Jesus Christ, I do not come to pray. I have nothing to offer and nothing to request. I come solely to gaze on you, O Mother. To gaze on you, weep for joy, and know this: that I am your child and you are there. ~Paul Claudel
