His mother kept all these things in her heart.

“He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart.” (LK 2: 51-52)

Mary and Jesus’ hearts are always connected. She took care of Our Lord, and He was always in her heart, “keeping all these things in her heart.” And in Our Lord’s heart, His mother is always His beloved mother and Queen of Heaven. Spouses and parents connected by hearts perfectly understand this, but it doesn’t matter how far they are. We also can be united and always count on Her heart and Her love.

“Blessed is the Virgin Mary who kept the word of God and pondered it in her heart.” (Gospel Acclamation)
