Reflection for Today
Today we pray for increased love for Jesus through Mary. Love is the foundation of our relationship with Jesus and with Mary.
Mary is our mother, given to us by Jesus from the cross when He said to John, "Behold your mother" (John 19:27). As our mother, she loves us with a perfect maternal love and is always ready to help us grow closer to Jesus.
The title "Queen of All Hearts" reminds us that Mary reigns over all hearts with her motherly love. She is always available to us, always ready to intercede for us, and always ready to bring our prayers to Jesus.
As we continue this novena, let us ask Mary to increase our love for Jesus. Let us ask her to help us grow in love for her Son each day of our lives, and to imitate her virtues at every opportunity we encounter.
Remember that Mary's greatest desire is to lead us closer to Jesus. When we grow in love for Mary, we automatically grow in love for Jesus.
