As God sought to reverse the curse of sin and bring us back into right relationship, He chose Mary to play a special role by bearing the Son into the world to be our Savior.
Mary was full of grace and an awareness of God at work in her life. Even though she couldn't fully understand it, given her question to Gabriel at the annunication, she trusted that God would work with her offering of obedience.
As the first disciple, she offers us a model that God will work in us as we say, "yes", to Him.
