His mother, His daughter – v2

His mother, His daughter,
the willing vessel, the handmaiden,
the one chosen, anointed,
consecrated by God,
the mother of our Savior,
the Babe in the manger,
the man who climbed the cross,
the One now seated on His throne…
 
His mother, His daughter,
His first love, His first disciple,
an intimacy with Mary
sharing, their hearts beating
in the womb, on the cross,
an ongoing conversation
from conception until her death
to her rising to Him in heaven…
 
His mother, His daughter,
what a mystery to ponder,
the dual nature of their lives,
the cord and the vine, feeding,
sharing, mortality, eternity, life,
what a burden, what a calling,
the handmaiden, willing vessel,
the risen Mother of God…
