Sacred Life Sunday: Mother Mary Calls to Me
mother mary calls to me, whispers words of wisdom…
The stones lie here, behind a building, beneath a sign, under the shadow of the grand cathedral. Once, sometime before 1100, there was a church here, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. This is what is left. This, and a small sign, first in Swedish and then roughly translated into English:
“This was Sancta Maria Minor, Little Mary’s church. The people loved Mary. She understood their language.’”
Is that what we long for, when we search for the feminine divine? Something Mary reflects in pale shadow? Someone who understand our language? I think yes. I think so.
“In my times of darkness is she is standing there in front of me, speaking words of wisdom….” Play us out boys…
