Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His Name Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end." Luke 1:30-33
The angel announced; the Virgin listened, believed and conceived. Christ is believed and conceived through faith. The Virgin Mary first conceived in her heart, and then fruitfulness came to the Mother’s Womb. Saint Augustine

Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word." Then the angel departed from her. Luke 1:38
When the Angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, the Virgin’s love conceived first in her heart and then in her womb.
A promise of love can only be fulfilled in love! The sign that God chose to give humanity to reveal the promise of his presence in history, found its full meaning in the mystery of the Incarnation of the Word. The sign was a virgin’s heart, receiving with love the Heart of God who is Love. A Virgin’s love will conceive, a Virgin’s heart will receive the fullness of life and give birth to the Life of the World! Saint John Paul II
Therefore, the Lord himself will give you this sign: the virgin shall conceive and bear a son and shall name him Emmanuel. Isaiah 7:14
A Virgin, a pure and humble heart, dedicated totally to loving God, completely available and generously disposed to His designs, was the one to cooperate, with her fiat, in the fulfillment of the plan of salvation. In the Virgin’s undivided, prayerful, generous and pure human heart a miraculous conception took place. A love so pure, so total, and so unconditional became so powerfully life-giving. The pure, immaculate love of a human heart was the soil, the perfect soil, to bear the child and to be the sign of the Presence of God among men. This is the great sign promised by Isaiah: love, pure, unconditional love is so powerful that it gives life. "Only love creates because love is the force, the powerful force, that calls forth life." Saint Maximilian Kolbe
