Many saints have pondered the infinite fertility of the Most Blessed Trinity. The Heavenly Father eternally begets the Divine Son. From the infinite love of these Two Divine Persons eternally proceeds the Holy Ghost. Yet the Third Person does not bring forth another Divine Person. Rather, He is fruitful through His union with Holy Mary. Together they brought forth the Incarnate Christ. In each Christian they bring forth "another Christ." Thus, the Church is the continuation of the mission of the Incarnate Son of God; what Jesus is by nature, we become by grace. We could say Mary is the mold of God -- all who enter into her are formed into the likeness of her Divine Son. In fact, the more the Holy Ghost finds Mary in a soul, the more powerfully and effectively he produces Christ in that soul. Hence, we must increase our devotion to Mary. She IS essential for man's salvation.
