The Mantle of Protection

This week is the last five days for my consecration to Jesus through Mary. I felt I have this calling to be closer to Mother Mary although at young age my faith on her has been challenged by those people who thought that we Catholics worship her. At young age I became conscious on my prayer that I keep on telling myself I'm not worshiping her but only ask for her help in praying for my petitions. It seems in my subconscious mind I am afraid from her -- that the evil one would trick me by using her image. Nevertheless my love for Jesus has always brought me closer to her. Well she is indeed his mother and he will never be born and salvation won't be fulfilled without her 'yes'. The novena to Divine Mercy has let me entrust my soul to her which is hard for me at first since I was hoping it would be Jesus who would fetch me when that faithful day comes. But a question pop up... will I be delighted if He sent his mother instead? I keep on telling myself that she indeed would lead me to Him. And this 33 day retreat has been I guess the final victory. I can fully pledge and entrust my whole being to her Immaculate Heart. All the troubles of oppression from the evil one will come to an end. Yes I believe I will be protected now. Just a little faith and I know I'm on the right path. I could feel the joy never left my heart. I am now strong, always enthusiastic, not tired of loving and doing extra mile -- all for the love of Jesus. Well who can really know more of Him than his own mother.. So why resist her when she can truly bring me closer to my Savior.
