Of all the ways God could have revealed His Only Begotten Son to us, the Father chose that His Son would come to us through the Ever-Virgin Mary. If God comes to us through the Immaculata, it is because it is the most fitting and perfect way. As such, it makes sense that we too should follow His example and go to Him journeying the same path, which is the surest, easiest, shortest, and most perfect way to union with Christ.
