In the Arms of Mary provides its reader with many profound and refreshing insights, based in Sacred Scripture, on how to deepen one's interior prayer life. It is a faithful companion piece to the gift of faith, the widely acclaimed treatise on spirituality by Fr. Taduesz Dajczer. Indeed, the author, Slawomir Biela, reminds us that our deepest longing for God's precious gifts of unconditional love and inner security cannot be fulfilled unless we continually renew our efforts to discover the spiritual truth about ourselves through prayer.

More importantly, God calls us to acknowledge who we really are- gradually to come to grips with various defense mechanisms and pretenses of our old self - without being afraid of His rejection or judgment, thus ripening within us the awareness that Divine Love, God's Merciful Love, overcomes everything.

In the face of the challenges to the holiness which our age presents to individuals and to the Church at large, Biela follows the constant teaching of the Holy Fathers in emphasizing the important role of the Blessed Mother as the source of our hope. Through our imitation of Her humble, yet glorious example, we are given certain hope as we struggle to make progress on our path toward holiness.
