Listen Now There is only one mediator between man and God, the man Jesus Christ. All things go through Christ. But, God has also asked us to participate in His Son’s mediation through intercessory prayer. The intercessory prayer is not only between us here on earth, but also between us and the saints of heaven. We pray very imperfectly as we see through a glass darkly and have not yet been perfected. The saints in heaven have been perfected and are in perfect union with God. The prayers of a righteous man availeth much as the Bible teaches us. No one is more righteous as those in heaven. Thus, God has ordained that we may petition the saints in heaven. They, in turn, being in perfect union with God, can perfect our prayers, make them perfect, and present them to God. Mary, more than any other, as the Queen Mother, is in position to do this.
