A Virgin's Diary: Jesus's Mothers Viewpoint
What if you held the Son of God... and still had to let Him go?
In the dusty village of Nazareth, where olive groves whisper secrets and Roman soldiers march like scorpions, a girl named Mary pours her heart onto parchment. From the shattering moment an angel lights her courtyard ("Do not be afraid ") to the day she watches her son hang on a cross ("Woman, here is your son"), this is the story of Jesus like you've never heard it-raw, intimate, and achingly human.
Walk with Mary as she...
Flees Herod's soldiers through desert nights, her baby's cries muffled by the howl of jackals.Stumbles upon 12-year-old Jesus teaching stray dogs to drink from a jug in the Temple.Tastes wine made from well water at a wedding, and wonders, "When did my little boy become a miracle?"Kneels beneath a storm-dark sky as Roman nails pierce the hands she once washed in a clay basin.But this is more than a mother's grief. It's a journey of blinding grace: swaddling clothes stitched with hope, fig seeds that bloom from tombs, and a love that turns fishermen into fire.
"A Virgin's Diary" weaves Scripture with whispers of what might have been-the smell of Joseph's sawdust, the ache of a teenage Messiah, the God who chose a girl from nowhere to carry Heaven's light.
25 chapters. 1 extraordinary life. The Gospel as a mother lived it.
"Mary's story will wreck you... and remake you."
