He pays special attention to her requests (as He did at the wedding feast at Cana)
He says “woman why do you bother me with such requests as my time has not yet come”. To say that Christ is honoring Mary is to pervert the scriptures. Christ never paid “special” attention to Mary anymore so than he paid attention to other sinners, and yes Mary was a sinner and can say no special prayers for you.
Yes, Christ said that and then did exactly what she asked Him to do: help her friends. Mary was Christ’s mother and, therefore, more special to Him than the average person. Mary was not a sinner: her DNA was used to create Christ’s, and God cannot join Himself to any imperfection. This means that Mary was sinless so that she could carry Christ and their blood could mingle.
The scriptures tell us that an archangel called her “blessed among all women” and “full of grace.” He said she had found favor with God and was selected for this honor. Christ performed His first miracle at her request. She walked to Calvary with Christ. She was revered by the apostles and with them for the Pentecost. Christ made sure His favorite apostle took care of her following His death. There is a lot of evidence in Scripture that Mary was extremely special to God and Christ.
