Theotokos

Theotokos is a greek title for Mary that literally translated means "God-bearer" or "One who gives birth to God." Jesus has only been physically born into the world once and that was through Mary. But we all share a very similar calling. Mary was called on to open her womb to the Lord and we are called to open our hearts to Him. By saying "yes", Mary brought Christ into the world and became "One who gives birth to God." By saying "yes", we bring Christ into the world to ourselves and the people arounds. By saying "yes", we become "God-bearers."
