My Relationship with Mary

Written by Christopher A.B.

In my spiritual llife, I feel that Mother Mary has an important role in my life.  I have a very close relationship with Mother Mary and I really love her as a mother, a sister and a best friend.  Everyday in my personal prayers, never I forgot to pray to Mary.  In my prayer to Mary, usually I ask her to pray for me to be faithful in responding to God’s call and ask for strength in facing many life challenges.  Also usually I ask Mary to pray so I can get closer to God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, then after that I express my love to her and I conclude my prayer with the prayer of “Hail Mary” three times.

There was one time when I made a mistake to someone.  At that time I was so afraid untuk apologize to that person as the person was a senior in the rank.  I asked Mother Mary and I begged her to give me the strength to say my apology.  And true in the end, when I expressed my apology, the person was just smiled and told me to try to do better and repair my mistake next time.  Through this event, my believe that Mother Mary will always help is getting stronger.
