Exitus Acta Probat Acta Non Verba Deus Vult 11:18
How is it that this woman who means so much in the outworking of our salvation could be the cause of so much derision and division within the body of Christ - the Church?
Peace be with you.
May Almighty God pour Endless Blessings from Heaven upon you.
May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Almighty God, intercede for you before the Throne of Almighty God to supply you with Endless Graces and Mercy from Heaven.
You started a Fantastic Thread. It takes a Fantastic Person to start a Fantastic Thread.
To answer the question at the bottom of your OP.
It is God's Will.
Genesis 3 English Standard Version (ESV)
14 The Lord God said to the serpent,
“Because you have done this,
cursed are you above all livestock
and above all beasts of the field;
on your belly you shall go,
and dust you shall eat
all the days of your life.
15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring;
he shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise his heel.”
I will share a few things here with you.
From the Book, "True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin" by St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montford:
It is by the Most Holy Virgin Mary that Jesus has come into the world, and it is also by Her that He has to reign in the world.
Mary has been singularly hidden during Her Life. It is on this account that the Holy Ghost and the Church call Her "Alma Mater", — Mother secret and hidden. Her Humility was so profound that She had no propensity on earth more powerful or more unintermitting than that of hiding Herself, even from Herself, as well as from every other creature, so as to be known to God only. He heard Her prayers to Him, when She begged to be hidden, to be humbled, and to be treated as in all respects poor and of no account. He took pleasure in hiding Her from all human creatures in Her Conception, in Her Birth, in Her Life, and in Her Resurrection and Assumption. Her Parents even did not know Her, and the Angels often asked of each other: Quae est ista? Who is that? Because the Most High either hid Her from them, or if He revealed any thing of Her to them, it was nothing compared to what He kept undisclosed.
This is why in the Holy Scriptures, the Blessed Virgin Mary is very hidden. Only to the Chosen is She Revealed.
I also want to tell you something about one of the children from Fatima named Jacinta. She was the youngest of the 3 children. One day while the children were playing together, Jacinta started throwing flowers at the other 2 children from her basket. So Lucia who was the oldest asked her what she was doing? Jacinta replied, "I'm just following what the Angels do in the pictures in Church. They throw flowers."
The Mysteries of our Faith and God Almighty are Endless and Eternal.
May God Almighty bless you a Thousand Fold.
