0fttot6en Gun Savcon Mother of Our Savior is Mary's most intimate title, the one she must love the most. It tells the whole purpose of her creation, her Immaculate Conception, and of the unequaled sanctity imposed upon her. The Incarnation was an absolute prerequisite to the Redemption. Even in such an important matter, God did not interfere with Mary's free will, and the Incarnation hinged on her consent. When Mary accepted God's invitation she not only accepted the honor of being the Mother of Our Redeemer, but also the unprecedented sorrows and trials that were to come with it. Thus Mary became the instrument that united Christ to the world. The motherly affection of Mary followed Christ throughout His life. She was close to Him at the Incarnation; gave birth to Him in a humble stable outside of Bethlehem; nurtured Him in a simple carpenter's house in Nazareth; protected Him in a journey of tribulation to Egypt; accepted His aim in life when she found Him among the Doctors of the temple; comforted Him on the way to Calvary; and gave Him back to His Father on Good Friday. The Blessed Virgin received an obligation that could only be fulfilled by a valiant woman. Seven Sorrows, the equal of which in torment will never be felt by another mother, pierced her heart as she watched her Son, the Son of God, die an ignominious death at the hands of His chosen people. Even in her great sorrow there was joy of realizing that only through Christ's death could the faithful receive a just reward. In a modern world where public figures are idolized for their material accomplishments, the life of the Mother of Our Savior should shine forth not as a degree of sanctity to be dreamed of, but as a foolproof example to be followed.
