Description
How often to we ponder over the question, "What was Mary's life really like while she was on earth?" The Gospels give us meager information regarding our Heavenly Mother. We would like to know more about her.
Mary's Assumption, a dogma of faith, convinces us that she lives with us still, and will continue to do so until "Time is no more"; then we shall enjoy with her the Beatific Vision, and hear from her own loving lips all that happened during her sojourn in the land of Galilee while she companioned with her Divine Son.
The Woman in Orbit tells us how she spends her time, visiting her beloved children in all parts of the world, giving us "Mary feasts every day everywhere." No sea nor wind, no height, nor depth can be a barrier to her travels. She, the first woman in orbit, remains there, constantly defying, so to say, the very laws of nature.
To read with the grace of God, the 366 Mary-day narratives in this book without being irresistibly drawn to Our Heavenly Mother, the Universal Mediatrix, would seem impossible.
May all who peruse these pages love Mary more, trust her implicitly, foster devotion to her, the Mother of God, everywhere and, at the hour of death, be embraced by her in loving welcome with the words, "I have been waiting for you a long time!"
Taken from the inside flaps.
