The Story
Under the title "Seat of Wisdom," Mary is often depicted holdingJesus on her lap. Jesus, Wisdom incarnate, is protected and safe with his mother who brought him into this world. This image reminds us that the search for wisdom is the search for Jesus, whether we realize it or not. Through prayer, study or exploration, the search for knowledge will culminate when we finally meet Jesus face to face!
