Could you imagine Mary up in Heaven trying to comprehend the millions of messages coming up from the lips and minds of people around the world everyday? Mary would have to be God herself to handle such a daunting task! And, she isn't.
@mpenaco Hey friend. I don't think she can. The Bible clearly says that Christ is the only person who has ever ascended into Heaven......John 3:13 "And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." Besides, Mary would need to be omnipresent to hear prayers. Only God is everywhere. Mary is still in the grave waiting for the resurrection of the dead just like my Mom is.
@johnthreesixteen316 You're right. The Bible says pray to God only, Mary cannot hear us! She is no greater than you or I. Otherwise we would have some direct command from God/Jesus/Holy Spirit to pray/thank her. We do not have that command in the bible because she does NOT intercede, help or plead our case before God/Christ Submission to God is from God (grace) NOT Mary.
Mary is being portrayed as good-looking but in reality she was not.

@johnthreesixteen316 Great comment. For me the big question is: Can she really hear a single prayer from anyone on earth?
