Today is the Solemnity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Here is the entire Gospel reading from Luke 11.
While Jesus was speaking, a woman from the crowd called out and said to him, "Blessed is the womb that carried you and the breasts at which you nursed." He replied, "Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it."
The Lord is telling us what pleases him the most. We can praise him with words, but praising him by observing the word of God is best.
