FOR YOUR EYES ONLY
AS WE OPEN OUR EYES TO THE BEAUTIES OF CREATION, we can already feel the attentive gaze of our loving mother. As the first stirring of our souls, our Heavenly Mother sets her gaze upon us. The Mother we all share with our Creator looks at us with a pure, sacred, royal, yet maternal gaze.
It is no wonder, then, that she renews her solicitude for her children when they stray in despair and do not return her gaze. Like a mother who is unwelcome in her own child's home, she leaves a sign, a message, a remembrance, and a maternal promise: "I will never forsake you."
She says: "Look deep into my eyes and let me look into yours." In a striking way, this picture seem to reflect the very gaze of Our Lady, the gaze that seeks to convert and to save. It is a gentle reminder of her promise at Fatima: "In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph."
