Encounters with Jesus: Mary the mother of Jesus

Encounters with Jesus: Mary the mother of Jesus by ric Gustafson


The question arises how could Mary a 16 year old virgin give birth to the Son of God?. She simply asked the angel how?. The angel replied that the Holy Spirit would come upon her. She said  let it be with me just as you say.
She gave birth to Jesus in Bethlehem in a stable in dirt and straw. Later they had to flee to Egypt to avoid the wrath of King Herod. She watched his miracles starting with the miracle at a wedding. She followed her son through three years of ministry. She watched in agony as he endured the cross. For three days, she agonized not knowing if her son was alive or dead. On that Sunday, she went to the tomb to help anoint her son's body.
She encountered Jesus by being his mother.
