About this Image:

And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. – Luke 1:28, 38

Mary has been held up to us as an example of humility and faith. When the angel Gabriel visited her, despite any doubts she was willing to submit herself to the lord. After Jesus was born, Mary and Joseph, in fulfilling the Law of Moses, took the baby to be blessed by Simeon at the temple. And when the priest held the babe in his arms, he pronounced to Mary: “Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also” (Luke 2:35). Surely, knowing that her son would be the Savior of the world but would also have to die to atone for our sins could be enough to shake her faith, but time and again, Mary is found in the scriptures supporting and loving her son.
