She was the mother of God.

Mary was the mother of Jesus, not the mother of God. Even though Jesus is God. God has always been, he is eternal. Sound complicated, I guess that is why he says," lean not on to your own understanding". There was no one perfect on Earth to redeem us from sin, that is why Jesus came out of heaven, to be born of flesh (through Mary), to die on the cross.

Roman Catholic answerThe Blessed Virgin Mary was famous, if you will, for her total trust and obedience to God. Through her "Fiat" (saying so be it) to God, and consenting to be the Mother of God, she made possible salvation for all of us. Her's was the only sinless life (outside of Jesus, Himself) in history, and throughout her life she showed us by her example how a disciple of Jesus was to act, to think, to love, and to trust. She wasn't just the Mother of God, from the cross, Jesus gave her to all of us, through the apostle, John, as our Mother.
