Mary is the Queen of Saints and our first advocate. Therefore, as soon as she has delivered a soul from the slaws of Satan and united her with God, she wants that soul to dedicate herself to imitating him. Otherwise, she could not, according to her own will, enrich with heavenly graces a soul whose conduct is opposed to his. That is why she proclaims blessed those who take heart to imitate her life.

"My children, she tells us, listen to me: blessed are those who walk in my footsteps". (Pr 8:32)
