Mothers Day Mary Mother of Jesus

Matthew Chapter 1 
 
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
Today on Mothers Day we look at what our mother's have done in each of our lives and it is massive. We need to honor them and praise their love and sense of duty. But the example the follow is that of Mary mother of Jesus . Mary who was as a virgin was told that she was carrying the saviour of the world and who married Joseph and had to have him understand this. Who face scorn everyday and delivered her child in a manger not a home. Who watched him grow into a man just like every other mother only to lose him to the Cross and then go to finish his burial and find he has risen from the dead and is preaching to his disciples. Could any of us handle that I think not Could any of us not wanted to had the chance.God Bless you Mom and Bless you Mary Mother of Jesus. Amen
