A quote about Mary, on this Saturday, her day:
“Our Lady’s heart is the most empty of all human hearts, the most empty of self and empty of pride, and therefore the most ready to give a heart’s welcome and shelter to those who are shelterless.” (Fr. Joseph Langford, Mother Teresa in the Shadow of Our Lady, p. 42)
So often empty means nothing to offer. Mary’s emptiness meant she was actually full of availability.
