Mary



Much could be said in contrast about the "real Mary" of the biblical narrative: the teenage girl from Nazareth who gave birth on a dirty stable floor; the terrified mom who scurried frantically through the streets of Jerusalem looking for her lost little boy; the woman who had enough influence over Jesus to convince him to liven up a wedding with his first miracle of turning water into wine; the grieved mother who wept in the shadow of the cross."
From A Year of Biblical Womanhood by Rachel Held Evans




Who do you think Mary was?
