Our beloved Capuchin Blessed Solanus Casey used to say, “Don’t just be devoted to Mary; learn from Mary!” One of the most important things to learn from Mary are her last words in the gospel, at the wedding of Cana: “Do whatever he tells you.” These words sum up her entire life – from the moment she said YES to the angel, to STANDING BY the cross of her son, to STAYING after the resurrection with those who had betrayed her son. What do her words say to me today?
