The Call for Mary: Echoes of Ancient Centuries

By Frits Albers

For every human being the all-decisive meeting with Jesus has in God's Plan only one and the same preparation, for the Ancient Jews as well as for us, moderns. No wonder then, that our Holy Mother the Church has understood so well the nature and purpose of the prayers for Holy Wisdom of old, and has reminded us, in the Lessons of the Feast days of Our Blessed Lady, of the way the Old Testament called for Mary. And so we are encouraged to use the same prayers in our ascent to Mary as were used by the Ancient Saints and Prophets in their ascent to Holy Wisdom. Just read in these most sublime pages of World Literature 'MARY' instead of 'WISDOM', and you will have prayers addressed to the Blessed Virgin Mary inspired by God Himself. In them we can read God's old ways of preparing His people for their meeting with His Son, and yet, we could not find anything more modern in our calling for Mary. The texts from the Old Testament Wisdom Literature compiled in this little book are presented in Novena form so people can use them as prayers. They are the echoes of Ancient Centuries in their call for Mary, and in their final call for Her Son our Saviour.
