Flower of Devotion

The Blessed Virgin once said to the venerable Mary of Jesus:

“Among all the benefits which the Lord Jesus has bestowed upon His beloved Church, and which He still bestows upon her, it is certainly not the least that after His miraculous Ascension He left Me on earth to strengthen and govern her affairs by My presence. From that hour to all time, I consider the Holy Church to be My property. For the Most High has given him to me, and at the same time he has commanded me to take care of him as his Mother and Lady.
