Today, we remember her name, which has the original Hebrew shape of Miriam. We cannot explain its exact meaning with certainty. According to some experts, it comes from the Hebrew word m\u00e1rar, or m\u00e1rah, which expresses bitterness and pain. Every mother knows that anger and pain are also associated with the joy of motherhood. How much more this must have been true of the one who became the mother of the Crucified One.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">G<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">uy Gilbert, a Parisian priest, recalls his childhood and relates that he loved his father but feared him. When his mother told him about his troubles after returning from work, immediate punishment followed, so he always tried to agree with his mother and interceded heartrendingly for himself. How many such requests did the mother hear before the father returned home? There were a total of fifteen children at home. A promise to her mother that she would get better was often enough, and she did not complain to her father. &#8220;I adore Mom very much, she is eighty, and I always see a fantastic look in their loving eyes, adds Guy Gilbert.<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Well<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, we can understand the Virgin Mary by the way our mothers look at us. They certainly have difficult children who were abandoned by their mothers immediately after giving birth, or who were oppressed by their mothers. They were terribly guilty of it. When a man has a loving mother, he has received a great gift from heaven.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Saint Bernard, the great Marian worshiper of the Middle Ages, encourages us:<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;J<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">if in this earthly life you are more tossed about in the midst of gales and storms, do not turn your eyes away from the light of this star. When a whirlwind of temptation blows you away, when you get between the pitfalls of tribulation, look at the star and call Mary. When waves of pride, ambition, gossip, jealousy toss you around, look at the star and call Mary. &#8220;<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> anger or avarice, or the desire of the body, shakes the boat of your soul, look at Mary. When you are afraid of a strict judgment and you already want to be consumed by grief and overcome despair, think of Mary. In danger, anxieties and doubts, think of Mary, invoke Mary.<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Let<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> her name not be lost from your mouth, let it not disappear from your heart. And to gain the support of her intercession, do not forget the example of her life. Please her, and you will never be without hope. Think of her and you&#8217;ll never be wrong. You don&#8217;t know fear under her protection. And so you will experience on yourself, as the evangelist rightly says: &#8220;And the name of the Virgin was Maria. &#8220;<\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The month of September, apart from May and October, can also be considered the Marian month, because in it we celebrate three mysteries that concern the Mother of God.
