It is through Mama Mary whom the Word was made flesh possible and Him to have dwelt amongst us. Catholics honor her for her obedience and simplicity. We honor her of her great role in God's great plans for man's salvation. WE honor her as the mother of our Lord Jesus Christ. And mothers to us have great meanings, some we can understand and some we can't. By faith we hold her dearest in our hearts. Happy Birthday Mama Mary. Thank you for the great love.
