God Gave Mankind a Very Determined Mother
To MGMers:
While Her earthly children argued among themselves as to the veracity of claims made in defense of her purity, one who is "full of grace," The Virgin Mary appeared to a young girl, Bernadette Soubirous, of Lourdes France. There, Our Lady set the record straight. The Blessed Virgin identified herself to Bernadette: "I am the Immaculate Conception." The rest is documented history:

What makes Mary special? From the moment of her conception, she was made free of sin of any kind: She is the "Immaculata." It could not be otherwise. It would be unthinkable to create an imperfect creature in whom the Holy Ghost would place His seed.
The womb in which the King of Kings would reside for nine months would have all the aspects of perfect grace, a Sanctus Sanctorum, a perfect, unblemished, grace-filled, safe, human womb, unlike any other mortal woman's.
Can we not see that Mary was like a perfect Eve, before the fall? This time, however, this Eve would not fail her God or Her seed (children). Her concern for us down through the ages has been consistently documented. God has given Her a warrior's task: that is to defeat Satan and give Mankind a period of peace. Unfortunately we aren't listening to Her. A tragic mistake. "Penance."
Thank you, most pure Mother: December 8th is a very special feast day. Thanks be to God. St. Bernadette, pray for us.
MGMers, lift your rosaries.
