According to St. Maximillian Kolbe, he once said, “Never be afraid of loving the Blessed Virgin too much. You can never love her more than Jesus did.”
One of the best way to express our love and veneration to the Virgin Mary is to consecrate our day in the honor of her, offering it up to her so that she may present it to her Son, Jesus. By so doing, we will draw closer to Jesus, through our devotion to his Blessed Mother.
Here is a beautiful prayer that recognizes the Virgin Mary as our mother and queen, trusting to her all that happens throughout the day, so that she can turn it into an acceptable prayer before the throne of Heaven.
My Queen, My Mother, I offer
myself entirely to you.
And to show my devotion to you,
I offer you this day, my eyes,
my ears, my mouth, my heart,
my whole being without reserve.
Wherefore, good Mother, as I am your own,
keep me, and guard me as your property and possession.
Amen.
