Poems About the Gospel,
Patrick McCaskey
Responding to the Word of Jesus Christ
Luke 11:27-28
From the “Navarre Bible” commentary,
We know that “The Tradition of the Church
Has always read these words as great praise for
The Blessed Virgin.” She believed God’s word.
From the “Catechism of the Catho-
lic Church,” 149, we know that “Throughout
Her life and until her last ordeal when
Jesus her son died on the cross, Mary’s
Faith never wavered. She never ceased to
Believe in the fulfillment of God’s word.
And so the Church venerates in Mary
The purest realization of faith.”
Mary was not the least bit contrary.
She helped everyone, even the most wary.
