Step back one minute and think about what you're doing. God became man, with a human mother. Let that really sink in. One woman in all of creation was chosen to be a special daughter to the Father, consider to the Spirit and mother of the Son. She was born without original sin, pre-baptized, as it were, to be a clean and perfect vessel for this greatest of miracles. She raised the Lord from birth, and the most perfect Son will love His mother perfectly. As He honors her, I would too. He told us through James, here is your mother. I happily adopt her and if she will listen, I will absolutely talk to her. I talk to my passed-on relatives sometimes and pray for them too, and ask them to put in a good word for me if they can. If we can do that when they're alive, what's different now?
