We attended Mass this morning with my father at St. Peter's. Fr. Thomas Kelly said that we cannot fathom the holiness of the Mother of God, who was one with Christ and touched him every day. Nor can we fathom the faith of Mary, who loved her Son and embraced Him fully even when His actions and destiny were not apparent.
"Mother of God" is the free translation of theotokos. The literal translation is more like "the one who gives birth to the one who is God."
