How Can Mary Hear So Many Prayers?

To be sure, the Blessed Mother is a finite creature, whereas God the Father and Jesus are omnipotent God.

However, because the Blessed Mother continues to abide in Jesus and the Father in heaven (see John 15:1-11), and because she is not constrained by the limits of time and space that we are on earth, Mary is blessed to be able to receive and intercede for the prayers of the multitudes who seek her intercession.
