Tara - look, it's your Lady!

I love Tara's statue of Our Lady of Sorrows so much that I saved the image of it to my computer, printed it out and framed it. Fittingly, the frame once belonged to my earthly mother and it has red roses on it. I only found this frame buried in the back of the closet two days ago.

I put the picture up on my bookshelf in my computer room. Interestingly, when I took a photo of it to post here I noticed a reflection in the glass. The reflection is a print of my in-laws' parish (wait for it....) Our Lady of Lourdes.

I think Mama Mary is holding me very close right now. I am profoundly grateful.

When I first came back to the Church over seven years ago I was very close to her. Then one day I realized that I didn't think of her very often and that I rarely asked for her intecession anymore. That was because I had become very close to her Son. She really did lead me to Him.

Thank you, Mama.
