    Motherhood for Mary was a painful privilege. It was a privilege for her to be chosen to bear the Son of God, but so very painful to have to witness his death.

One commentator said that motherhood is a painful privilege. I guess that it is easy for me to say, being a man, but I like that. A painful ...read more
