The truth of who she bore in her womb attests to the honor which God has shown her. That truth also attests to the singular specialness of her, regardless of how often she is mentioned in Scripture or how little as the case may be.

And I have Christ dwelling in my hearth through faith.

Ephesians 3:14-19 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

And therein lies the heart of the matter. Pride.

It’s a lovely and wondrous thing to have Christ dwelling in us, but there is no comparison as much as one might want to think there is, to bearing Him as one’s child.
