Mary, Mother Of God

Today I wanted to think about Mary. I found a beautiful picture of her and wanted to meditate on her kindness. I feel a connection with Mary because she is feminine and soft. I feel Mary would understand all my sufferings and would try her best to heal me, like Jesus. When I meditate on Mary I feel to forgive my torturers. I feel that my kidnapper did not know what she was doing when she tortured me. She tortured me for many months and acted as though I was worse than an animal. Mother Mary shows me that it was not my fault that I was hurt so badly but that it was out of my hands. Mother Mary has shown me that women are supposed to be soft and compassionate and humble. Mary has shown me that even though I was tortured that I am still valuable. Mary suffered seeing her son tortured severely, she knows what suffering feels like and what it means to be devastated. I admire Mary's gentleness and kindness and I feel she would look at me and see someone who has been through a lot. I think she would look in my eyes and then hold me.
