“..I’ll take you one more.. Mother is far more than just someone who carries a child.. A mother is the heart that raises the child, a mother is the nurturer, a mother gives more than physical life, a mother gives a part of her own soul to her child...”

excellent!

I also cannot find examples of Jesus referring to Mary as “mother of my human nature”.

nor do I recall Elizabeth referring to Mary as “mother of the human nature of my Lord”

If Elizabeth can say “mother of my Lord” - then durnit - so can I!

I’m just glad God looks at our hearts and not all this dogma stuff.. No matter what you believe in this case, God knows the intentions behind your belief.

Certainly, but extending it to 'mother of God' may or may not be stretching the truth. It is just semantics, but I see no reason to have to stretch what is said in the Bible.
