The Love from Above | A Reflection on Mary, the Mother of Jesus & Jesus, the Humble Mighty King

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." - Isaiah 9:6

Introduction"The Love from Above" is a profound and moving Christian song that reflects on the divine love of Jesus Christ and the faithfulness of Mary, His mother. It captures the humility and power of Christ as the Mighty King who came to serve, save, and redeem the world. It also honors the heart of Mary, the chosen vessel through whom God's greatest gift was brought into the world.

Mary: The Chosen Vessel of GraceMary was not just the mother of Jesus; she was a woman of deep faith, humility, and obedience to God's will. When the angel Gabriel appeared to her, she responded with complete surrender: "Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word" (Luke 1:38). Despite the unknown, she embraced the calling to carry and nurture the Son of God, trusting fully in the Lord.

Mary’s life was marked by strength, love, and unwavering devotion. She witnessed the miraculous works of Jesus, stood by Him in His sufferings, and rejoiced in His resurrection. As the Mother of the Messiah, she exemplifies faith in action, showing us what it means to trust in God’s plan even when it is beyond human understanding.

Jesus: The Humble Yet Mighty KingFrom the moment of His birth in a lowly manger, Jesus displayed both humility and divine authority. Though He was the King of Kings, He chose to walk among the poor, the broken, and the outcast. His mission was not to reign with earthly power but to serve and sacrifice for the salvation of mankind.

Jesus' life was one of love, mercy, and ultimate victory. He healed the sick, forgave sinners, and demonstrated the Father's heart through every act of compassion. Even in His suffering, He remained obedient, declaring, "Not my will, but Yours be done" (Luke 22:42). His crucifixion was the ultimate act of sacrificial love, and His resurrection proved His eternal reign as the Mighty King who conquered sin and death.

Key Themes in the Song:

God’s Unfailing Love – Jesus is the ultimate expression of divine love.

Faith and Obedience – Mary’s story reminds us of the power of surrendering to God.

Humility and Strength – Jesus showed true power by choosing to serve and love unconditionally.

Redemption and Grace – Through Jesus, we receive the greatest gift of salvation and eternal life.

Hope and Victory – The resurrection of Christ assures us that love triumphs over death.

Holy Mary, Pray For Us (original demo)

I wrote this song in honor of our Lady
who will crush Satan at the end of times
the New Eve
the only perfect human being without original sin
our greatest intercessor
 The Madonna
The Queen of heaven
 allows us to remain close to her Son
with her holy rosary
we can obtain all things
from countless Marian apparitions such as Our Lady of Fatima, Lady of Lourdes (proven by the Church)
along with Our Lady of Medjugorie, Lady of La Salette, Lady of Guadalupe, our Lady of Garabandal (and many other that are still under investigation)
we can find true inner peace, spiritual joy, and simplicity 
we can discover the mysteries of the Trinity 
the acts of purification for our souls
and how to save souls through prayer and fasting
how she promises to release us from our purgatory chains
our Blessed Mother calls us to holiness
this song is devoted. to honor and thank her for all she does
as the Mother for all humanity
thank you Maria
Pray for us
