June 23, 2014

Today we celebrate Mary’s fiat- her ‘yes’ to you. Somehow, even though she was so young, she understood her role in your divine plan. Often, I have trouble figuring out God’s plan- and saying yes to it. Why is it so hard to trust?

Mary, did you know- really and truly know- how great your son would be?

Mary, Did You Know?

Mary remained faithful throughout her life. We will also celebrate the miracle at Cana, where Jesus turned water into wine. Mary again brought out God’s plan, even though Jesus claimed it wasn’t his time yet.

Sometimes we all need that little push to help us bring out our own talents- for me, that’s been my sister, my ACE roommates, and my coworkers. They bring out the best in me, even when I don’t see it in myself.

Today is a day of ‘Yes’es. Today is a day of love. Today is a day of faith.

Dear God,
Help me to be open to your divine plan. Help me say ‘yes’, as Mary did. I may be young, I may be small, but you can work through anyone. Work through me, God. Please give me courage and help me to see with eyes of faith.
Amen.
