Because you believed in the word of the Lord, because you were faithful to the end under the cross where your only son died for me.
Because you watch over me and mine I'm not afraid of the the glory that surrounds you because I know you have suffered as I have, you have cried and you are redeemed by your son as I am. You are all sweetness and mildness for all who call on you, glory of the human race, sweet mother of God.

Mary can not save you, the bible does not tell us to pray to her, or ask her to intecede for us to Christ.The Bible never says that Mary was anyone but an ordinary human female whom God chose to use in a extraordinary way. Yes, Mary was a righteous woman and favored by God (Luke 1:27-28). Mary was also a sinful human being just like everyone else – who needed Jesus Christ as her Savior just like everyone else (Romans 3:23; 6:23-24). Mary did not have an “immaculate conception” – there is no Biblical reason to believe Mary’s birth was anything but a normal human birth. Mary was a virgin when she gave birth to Jesus (Luke 1:34-38),

The Bible is clear that we should love Mary and yes, even ask her intercession. Those who truly read the Bible love and honor Mary as you do. The following Bible verses make it PERFECTLY clear that devotion to Mary is desired by God. Those who follow the Bible, love Mary and pray for her intercession. It is VERY Biblical as these quotes irrefutably show.
"Hail, favored one! The Lord is with thee." (Lk 1:28)
Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and she exclaimed with a loud cry, ‘Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb! And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?’" (Lk 1:41-43).
For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed; for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name’" (Luke 1:46-49).

Yes Amen. It would be really something if when we faced judgement Jesus just looked us squarely in the eyes and said just one thing---"Did you love my Mother". ( my friend dreamed this happened)
