Spiritual Daily Readings

The whole Bible teaches truth and awakens emotions, but the Psalms are in a category of their own. They do not just awaken the heart; they put it in the foreground. They do not merely invite our emotions to respond to God's truth; they put our emotions on display. The Psalms are more than commanding-they are contagious. We are not just listening to profound ideas and feelings. We are living among them in their overflow.

In perfect union with her Son and subordinate to him, the Vatican II Council calls her "our mother in the order of grace" (LG 61).
