God makes the woman of a motherless house the
joyful mother
of children.
Psalm 113:8
When the angel revealed his message to the Virgin Mary he gave her a sign to win her trust. He told of of the motherhood of an old and barren woman to show her that God is able to do what he wills... and Mary sets out for the hill country...
St Ambrose, Bishop of Milan (373-397)
