We know that Jesus is God
True, pure, humble, and full of mercy.
Mercy rests on His right hand, justice on His left.
But because He is God incarnate, Mary is the Mother of God.
So we must be true to Jesus, our Teacher and Savior.
We must also be true to Mary, who faithfully leads us to Him.
For Mary is the lamp and Jesus the oil
Pure oil of the living God, lighting the hearts of the faithful.
Hearts bearing love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
Goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self‑control.
Goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self‑control.
For against these things there is no law.
Be true to Jesus; bear the Spirit’s fruit.
Live the Christian life with the help of God and the love of Mary,
For her heart is true and her love is pure.
Amen

Like your description of Jesus and His attributes and likening them to the necessary fuel for our Christian life. Good idea to state why Mary is important. Glad to be reminded of the fruits of the Spirit as listed in the Bible. Gorgeous embroidery work and love the colors.
