Who's Your Momma

I believe that Mary was the ideal woman. She was the ideal woman in the sense that she was pure. She was pure of sin. This is what the bible tells us about Mary. I think that she stand for what humans should be. They should be kind, loving, and willing to sacrifice themselves for the good of others. It is hard for me to believe about all the Jesus stuff but it's good that people have something to believe in. So I can't go much further than this. Mary was a woman of the "teachings" of Jesus. She lived them even before Jesus and being "contacted" by God.

The first story tells alot about who Mary was. She was a faithful person that believed good comes to those who follow their faith. She traveled and proclaimed the word of God without worry of looking like a crazy woman. How many people would proclaim something like that and actually believe it. You can feel her emotion in the first story. As for the second story it does not relate to Mary. It only talks about Joesph and his same type of undying faith to the Lord.

Who am I to say why God would choose such a woman. I could suspect that he chose Mary because she was young and had not yet been pregant. She also had faith in her God more than any other woman. Most women would have not wanted the child being scared of being found out and stoned to death. She was not. She took the child on and proclaimed it. Then Joseph was a nice man that was going to let her live but after him speaking to an angel in a dream he also stayed with Mary and became loyal to god. Mary's faith would be what truly brought salvation to the world or maybe perhaps any other girl could have been chosen. Who knows....
