Mary of Tenderness
Egg tempera and gold leaf
15 x 17 inches
There are so many images of Mary, how is
one to choose? There is Mary of the Light, Mary
of Mercy, Mary of the Immaculate Conception, Mary who births the Wonder
Worker, Mary Queen of Heaven, along with: Mary of Good Council, Mary of
Graces, Mary of Help, Mary of Health, and Mary of Success. I would be
content to live in any of these states of being, if
even for a moment. I think I understand why she is offered through such a
wide variety of attributes — so that we can choose which presentation of
divine being after which we might model our own life.
