Anyways, but seriously have you actually listened to the words to the song? It's pretty powerful and so true. I mean, did she really know all that Jesus was gonna do? Did she ever get frustrated when he was a baby and he would cry and cry? Did he cry a lot? Did she wish He would stay a baby forever even though she knew He had come for a reason? Did she know that reason? Did she know He would die on a cross when He was 33? Did she pray for His ministry from when He was born? Did she pray for the people He would encounter? Did she go and see Him minister? So many questions....
Wow. To be trusted to raise the King of Kings. Prince of Peace. The Great I Am!
The part of her story that always gets me is when she was pregnant with Jesus. Did she get ugly looks when she went to the market? Did she lose friends cause they didn't believe her? Did her parents support her?
I didn't get pregnant with Jesus, but I did get pregnant before we were married. I lost friends. Lots. My parents were hurt at first, but they loved me the same.
Not saying I was in the same shoes as Mary was by any means but I just wonder what happened those 9 months she was pregnant.
I'm in awe in the mother Mary was to Jesus. I just picture her being a very patient mother. I mean, how could you not be patient knowing you are raising the Son of God.
As a mother, I can't imagine seeing my son on that cross, taking on our sin, HER sin!
When Makayla or Addison are badly hurt... I want nothing more to take on their pain for myself. I hate seeing them hurting.
Did that cross her mind? Did she want to take on the pain He bore as the Roman soliders beat Him with whips, spat in His face, put that crown of torna on His head, or did she want to carry that cross for Him cause He was so weak from being beat?
I just can't even imagine....
