The Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary

“Is she not a rainbow in the clouds reaching towards God, the pledge of a covenant of peace? “Look upon the rainbow, and bless Him that made it; surely it is beautiful in its brightness. It encompasses the heaven about with the circle of its glory, the hands of the Most High have displayed it.” (Pope Pius XII)

The Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary!

Dear Family of Mary!

Today we honor Mary as our Queen!! This feast has not been long declared. Pope Pius XII declared it on October 11, 1954, just four years after he proclaimed the Dogma of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1950. It made sense that if Mary had been assumed into heaven, body and soul, she would now be seated at the right hand of her Son, in royal splendor. And so a feast in her honor as Queen of Heaven would benefit all the faithful! We would have recourse to our Queen for all our ills.

Here is an excerpt from the encyclical. It seems long, but you will love reading it, as it speaks so well of the joy and glory of Our Lady!! The more we understand how God has raised her up, the better we will recognize the correctness of our recourse to her. She is our Mother and she is the Queen!! We are children of the Queen of Heaven!!

Also, all the concerns and problems that Pope Pius XII enumerates have come to pass.  We are in such need of a rescue.  It is Our Lady of Medjugorje, Queen of Peace, who has come!  She is with us in Medjugorje to answer all the needs Pope Pius XII put in her hands.

As she said to us:

 

June 25, 2007 “Dear children! Also today, with great joy in my heart, I call you to conversion. Little children, do not forget that you are all important in this great plan, which God leads through Medjugorje. God desires to convert the entire world and to call it to salvation and to the way towards Himself, who is the beginning and the end of every being. In a special way, little children, from the depth of my heart, I call you all to open yourselves to this great grace that God gives you through my presence here. I desire to thank each of you for the sacrifices and prayers. I am with you and I bless you all. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

48. Let all, therefore, try to approach with greater trust the throne of grace and mercy of our Queen and Mother, and beg for strength in adversity, light in darkness, consolation in sorrow; above all let them strive to free themselves from the slavery of sin and offer an unceasing homage, filled with filial loyalty, to their Queenly Mother. Let her churches be thronged by the faithful, her feast-days honored; may the beads of the Rosary be in the hands of all; may Christians gather, in small numbers and large, to sing her praises in churches, in homes, in hospitals, in prisons. May Mary’s name be held in highest reverence, a name sweeter than honey and more precious than jewels; may none utter blasphemous words, the sign of a defiled soul, against that name graced with such dignity and revered for its motherly goodness; let no one be so bold as to speak a syllable which lacks the respect due to her name.

49. All, according to their state, should strive to bring alive the wondrous virtues of our heavenly Queen and most loving Mother through constant effort of mind and manner. Thus will it come about that all Christians, in honoring and imitating their sublime Queen and Mother, will realize they are truly brothers, and with all envy and avarice thrust aside, will promote love among classes, respect the rights of the weak, cherish peace. No one should think himself a son of Mary, worthy of being received under her powerful protection, unless, like her, he is just, gentle and pure, and shows a sincere desire for true brotherhood, not harming or injuring but rather helping and comforting others.

50. In some countries of the world there are people who are unjustly persecuted for professing their Christian faith and who are deprived of their divine and human rights to freedom; up till now reasonable demands and repeated protests have availed nothing to remove these evils. May the powerful Queen of creation, whose radiant glance banishes storms and tempests and brings back cloudless skies, look upon these her innocent and tormented children with eyes of mercy; may the Virgin, who is able to subdue violence beneath her foot, grant to them that they may soon enjoy the rightful freedom to practice their religion openly, so that, while serving the cause of the Gospel, they may also contribute to the strength and progress of nations by their harmonious cooperation, by the practice of extraordinary virtues which are a glowing example in the midst of bitter trials.

52. Earnestly desiring that the Queen and Mother of Christendom may hear these Our prayers, and by her peace make happy a world shaken by hate, and may, after this exile show unto us all Jesus, Who will be our eternal peace and joy, to you, Venerable Brothers, and to your flocks, as a promise of God’s divine help and a pledge of Our love, from Our heart We impart the Apostolic Benediction.

Isn’t this beautiful!!! Such a joy!!! Notice this sentence:

“We likewise ordain that on the same day the consecration of the human race to the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary be renewed, cherishing the hope that through such consecration a new era may begin, joyous in Christian peace and in the triumph of religion.”

I believe that Satan noticed this sentence as well. He began in grave earnest in the 50’s to destroy us all by unleashing the worst of all lies: “There is no God, you are God. There is no eternal life. This life is all you have.” It was his last great effort to defeat God, by stealing away God’s children. And so God sent the Mother, to retrieve her children and give them back to the real Father in Heaven, establishing a new time, a new era of peace.

Our Lady came to Medjugorje to begin the showdown with the enemy. And we are now her extended hands, her instruments in the battle. This is it!! We must fight with her.

Let us pray:
