Empathy
We all experience pain and suffering, and Mary perhaps experienced some of the most heart-wrenching loss anyone could ever experience, the loss of a child. The Passion of Christ was the continued transformation of Mary's sympathetic heart to an empathetic one.

Successors of Mary
Contemplating an aging Mary now, I see how her experiences gave her a natural transition from active ministry into a ministry of being present to Jesus' followers by listening, by praying for them, and by sharing her experiences with them.

Intercession of Mary
At some point in your prayer, allow the Holy Spirit to guide you and let the prayer turn into a conversation. Imagine yourself sitting there and talking to Mary. Talk to her like she is your friend. Bring a struggle to her, ask her for advice or just talk. You really do get clarity and it is a beautiful grace and very calming. It is humbling.
