She was the chosen one.

While many of us believe that Mary is the chosen mother of Jesus. We must also look at the line from where she descended. Mary and Joseph were both from the line of David. However if the Baby Jesus was the son of Joseph, he would not be considered the son of God. By being born of the Holy Spirit and Mary, by overshadowing, Jeus earns the tile of both son of man and of God. As far as the line of david goes, Mary was also in the line of David. If you look at the geneology of Jesus in Matthew chapter 1 you will see how it works out (maybe). I was listening to the radio one day and the preacher stated that Jesus could not be from the line of David through Joseph because Joseph's ancestry was cursed. I don't remember which person was cursed but from that point on there would not be a king from that line ever. This is where the linage of Mary the mother of Jesus comes in handy. It is through her that we have our Lord and Savior, Jesus.
I hope that helps. if not let me know.

Mary was of the tribe of Judah and a descendant of David. Hence it could be said of her son Jesus that he “sprang from the seed of David according to the flesh.” (Ro 1:3) Through his adoptive father Joseph, a descendant of David, Jesus had a legal right to David’s throne, and through his mother, as the “offspring,” “seed,” and “root” of David, he held the natural hereditary right to “the throne of David his father.”—Mt 1:1-16; Lu 1:32; Ac 13:22, 23; 2Ti 2:8; Re 5:5; 22:16.

It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth,
To touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, goodwill to men
From heavens all gracious King!"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled;
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.

O ye beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow;
Look now, for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing;
Oh rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on,
By prophets seen of old,
When with the ever-circling years
Shall come the time foretold,
When the new heaven and earth shall own
The Prince of Peace, their King,
And the whole world send back the song
Which now the angels sing.

Why did Mary say yes to God? Only she could say, but I would guess that she felt the truth of the angel's message so deep in her soul that it would have been like cutting off her hand to reject it.

She was chosen by God to give birth to Jesus his son by the holy spirit. She then was blessed and and holy.

It went something like this - "Joseph, I think I am with child and we are not yet married." " They will stone me to death, what can we do?" "Don't worry Mary, I'll come up with some story they will buy."
