Non-Catholics are sometimes misled into believing that we
worship Mary like we worship God. That is a misunderstanding and is not a
Catholic teaching. Mary is not God but the Mother of God. She is no different
from us human beings, a child of the first man and woman but was chosen by God
to be the Mother of Jesus, specifically. For this, Mary bears no sin.
Mary was dedicated to God when she was a child and she vowed
to remain always a virgin. She knew of the expected Messiah and like every holy
maiden, she prayed for His coming. And one day, the angel Gabriel came with the
news. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you…
We pay our respect, love and
honor to Mary for her obedience to God's plan and became the Mother of God with
a great faith in her heart. She who said "YES" to God so Jesus can be
with us, who hunger and thirst for His words.
