This is a beautiful, detailed narration of the story. Thank you, sir! It isn't often that such nice and detailed narratives of the lives of the saints can he found. Judging from this one, there ought to be a book on the lives of the saints for every day of the year by Robert Lazu Kmita!
Let’s see which of my “work in progress” projects will be completed first. A book about the lives of the saints? With your prayers, maybe. Anyway, thank you for your encouraging comment!
I will keep it in my prayers. I have always desired to find a book with longer stories of the saints than is usually found. It is much needed, and it's nice to know there is someone who could do it!
Thank you very much for such encouraging words! I absolutely agree: through the power of prayer everything becomes possible. And I will add other essays about the lives of the saints.
It is an angel (his tri-colored wings - blue/brown/yellowish beige - can be easily noticed). Angels are usually depicted as humans in many classical Christian icons and paintings because of their resemblance to us. Although they do not have bodies, they are spiritual creatures endowed with intellect/reason, like us. Some interpretations suggest that he also symbolizes the royal dignity of the Holy Virgin Mary, as in Meso-American culture, only the king, queen (and, eventually, other high dignitaries) could be carried on the shoulders of their servants.
Interesting, and thanks for your response. What you say makes sense. Still, this aspect of the image has always bothered me, as I'm used to seeing Our Lady crush the serpent under foot.
An absolutely lovely telling 🌹🌹🌹😌 ✍🏼♥️ of what is indeed probably the most important event to have ever happened in this hemisphere of the Globe! ⛰️🌎

Do you know who or what is the person holding up the moon under Our Lady in the image?
