Portfolio : Who's your momma?

I feel that Mary is a special woman because she was the one chosen by God to father Jesus. She seems very humble and very calm. Also she was a lower-class member of society chosen over any queen to be the bearer of God's child. She always semms to have an angelic grace in every protrail of her, but she seems very sad.

As a person to believe in such strong predictions Mary seems like a very down-trotten, maybe even desperate person, but if she believes so strongly it giver her the hopes that she will stay alive to lead a good life. Reading these passages Mary seems like a lower class peasant type woman. There are many ways that her commmunity that could have seen her pragnancy, one would be that they were all grateful that the Messiah was coming, another could be that the community could have seen Mary as a sinner by being pregnant before she was married, and lastly the community could have been jealous that such a low class woman would be favored by God.

I believe that God chose Mary because she was from the lower class of society because the lower class, if given such a gift, will take care of it and be truly greatful, also will be humble about it. But if given to a higher class this will be abused and not be appreciated as much. God knew that given to Mary Jesus would be in good hands, and be taught valuable lessons because of who his mother is. Jesus would know to be humble, loving, and most of all be forgiving. I believe God chose Mary to mother Jesus because she was naturally the right choice.
