DIVINE MOTHERHOOD


January 1, 2015
Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God



In the fullness of the appointed time
The virgin became a mother
But the mother remained a virgin
Whose womb became the New Ark
Pure, immaculate and undefiled
Holding not the tablets but the Word.

As she gave flesh to divinity
She gave birth to her Creator
Who created her to be his mother
Then God became a human pilgrim
That the new humanity may be born
Through the fertile womb of Mary

- Fr. Vladimir Echalas, SOLT -
