How has this mystery of the conception of the
eternal, uncreated Word of God in the womb of Our Lady taken place? How did she
become Mother? What was the constant assistance of the Spirit throughout the
whole period in which the Madonna carried in her womb the eternal Word of God?
All this is not ours to know; before this mystery let us be content to kneel
down and to adore, without pretending to go beyond because they are the most
sacred, highest, and most delicate mysteries we find in our faith. And let us
not be ashamed to say that we do not understand the mystery, because if we knew
the mystery, it would not be a mystery. We only know that Christ was born of
the Blessed Mother by the work of the Holy Spirit. (The New Man)
