God does not submit to Mary.

Are you saying that Jesus did not honor His mother and father?

Luke tells us about Jesus, who most of us believe was fully God and fully man, that:

And he went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart. And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and man. Luke 2: 51, 52

So he submitted himself to both Mary and Joseph, even though he was God, because he lived as an obedient to the commandments Jew, like us in all things but sin.
