October 11 is the Feast of the Divine Motherhood of the Blessed Virgin Mary. While it is true she only had one son but she is also the mother to all of us.

At the foot of the cross Jesus gave her to St. John when He said, “Behold thy mother.” It was the will of Jesus that His mother be provided for after His death. It was also His will that His mother would be the mother to all of us.

For she is the mother to all of us even if we don’t recognize it. She is always praying for us and searching out sinners to win back their souls for her Son. She cares for us and worries about us like any caring mother would do.

But how many in China reject her consul but also her motherhood. These people believe they are right and foolishly follow their own course which often leads to their own destruction.

How many souls could be saved if only they would recognize Mary as their mother? How many souls are lost because they don’t?
