THE ANNUNCIATION
THE MOTHER OF GOD
4. The Mother of God is My Mother.
But that union affects me also. God wanted His Mother to be my Mother also, thus She loved me from that moment as His brother. Hence She ardently desired that Her Son should be born and should redeem the world, and consequently too She had me constantly in mind. She wanted then, as She wants now, to keep me as Her son, to be another Jesus. She wants me to be united with Her as She was with Jesus, so that I also like Jesus should partake of the same life. What immence happiness to think that I have as Mother the one chosen as the Mother of God. It is through Mary that we acquire a real relationship with Jesus. Jesus and I are brothers. Think of this and thank both Mother and Son for this marvelous achievement of love.
Imitate Mary in Her divine maternity by living more intimately with Jesus. Make this union rich in practical results. But make sure you first unite yourself that your soul may be in word and in deed really worthy of such a great Mother.
