Mary the Mother of Jesus | #LightTheWorld

n the first chapter of Matthew, we read of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, including five mothers who each played a critical role in continuing the bloodline of the savior. But most significant is the literal mother of the savior, Mary. We are introduced to her before Christ is born, learn of her tender experiences with him during his life and ministry, and discover she was a witness of his death and a disciple after his ascension to the father. Only Mary, the mother of Jesus, can claim to be such a unique witness of the Messiah.
