Mary Mediatrix<\/h1>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n

This image of the Holy Virgin is in one of the chapels of the Basilica\u00a0of Merciful Love in Collevalenza<\/b>(Italy).The picture was painted by Elis Romagnoli. Mary Mediatrix is represented with a lily on her chest and\u00a0open arms<\/b>, as if she were asking her Divine Son for mercy.<\/p>\n

\"mariamedianera\"<\/a>Mary receives Jesus in her immaculate heart, symbolized by the Host over the lily.<\/p>\n

Since the womb, Jesus nourishes the deep desire to offer himself in sacrifice for us. This is why he enters into the world, addressing these words to the Father:\u00a0\u201c<\/i>Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but you prepared a body for me; you took no delight in holocausts and sin offerings. Then I said, \u2018As is written of me in the scroll, Behold, I come to do your will, O God.\u2019\u201d<\/i>(Heb 10:5\u20137).<\/p>\n

The Host\u00a0<\/b>on Mary\u2019s chest refers to Jesus\u2019 Eucharistic gift and invites us to this same oblation.<\/p>\n

Mary Queen, filled with the\u00a0Spirit<\/b>, crushes the head of the Evil one with her foot: this is the sign of the assured hope in the victory of God\u2019s Merciful Love over the evil in the world (rainbow).<\/p>\n

Mary Queen is\u00a0Mediatrix of the Mercy<\/b>, not only because she intercedes for us before her Son to obtain graces, but also because of her\u00a0\u201cHere is the handmaid of the Lord\u201d<\/i>\u00a0(Lk 1:38) she invites us in a motherly way to do the same, to become capable as well of better receiving and giving this divine Mercy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
