Mary was part of the ministry of Jesus and her active involvement indicates the special roles women played in the ministry of Jesus.

The cross was not the end and the tomb was not the end. These women loved the Lord even in His death. They didn't give up on Him.

Yet, though weeping may endure for the night, joy will come in the morning.

Mary thought her son was missing in Jerusalem, what she didn't realize was the fact that Jesus was in his Father's house.

Mary might have wondered why God had to make them flee. Couldn't God have saved Jesus from Herod? Why must they flee?

At the same time Mary went to the temple for her purification, Anna was also at the temple and in fasting and prayers.

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them.

Many young people are like Mary: barely known, trying to live for God, and keeping up with the challenges of life.

Mary and Elizabeth were God's chosen vessels. In the eyes of humans, none of them qualified: Mary was a virgin and Elizabeth was barren.

Mary's husband was just the right support system for her. Joseph was not harsh, he was gentle and ready to marry Mary.

Mary was ready to serve right away. She was ready for the full package of God's agenda. She was not anxious about many things.

Mary's favour did not propel her to the Palace like Esther. Her own assignment was the way to the cross.
