St. Mary Mother of God
The entire life and character of St. Mary is one of inner glories and riches, “for the Lord does not see as man sees for manlooks at the outward appearance but the Lord looks at the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7). For this reason St. Paul says, “We do not look at the things which are seen but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary but the things which are not seen are eternal”. (2 Corinthians 4:18).
i.St. Mary = Possessed Inner Glory
”You are the ark, overlaid with gold on all sides, which is made of undecaying wood, for she was clothed with the glory of the divinity from within and without (Sunday Theotokia)”. “The royal daughter is all glorious within the palace; her clothing is woven with gold”. (Psalm 45:13). On the exterior, St. Mary had nothing for which others could envy her; she was not famous, nor rich, she kept content and silent in her inner glory. She gloried in her Lord and Saviour, “My soul rejoices in God my Saviour.” (Luke 1:46-47).
