"Then Uzziah said to her, "Blessed are you, daughter, by the Most High God, above all the women on earth; and blessed be the Lord God, the creator of heaven and earth, who guided your blow at the head of the leader of our enemies." Judith 13:18
Who is this Old Testament scripture talking about? It is none other than Mary, the mother of Jesus. "For he has looked upon his handmaid's lowliness; behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed." Luke 1:48 "And the angel said to her in reply, "The holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God." Luke 1:35. "I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; They will strike at your head, while you strike at their heel." Genesis 3:15.

God's Covenant Family has a mother that we are to call blessed. As in any mother, they seek to protect their children and only want the best for them. The part I like best is mom's intervention, many a time I would be in trouble and my mother would know how to present it to Dad that would lessen the punishment. As you look around you, the devil is attacking the family at every step. He seeks to divide, think about it, how is he dividing those relationship in your life that are to glorify God? Pray for the family and help Mary, through her Son Jesus, put an end to the devils evil plots.
Dear Heavenly Father, You gave us Mary as the mother of Your Son, and our own mother, may we all call her blessed. May we each help her fight the devil, You will guide our blows that defeat him. May we each pick up our spiritual swords and strike at his head. Help each of us see the spiritual warfare going on within our own lives and protect our own families from the forces of evil. I ask this in the name of Jesus, Amen.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, Pray for us.
