"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

Life, death and resurrection, have you considered the wisdom of these miracles being repeated over and over again.  We just experienced the resurrection and are being asked to carry new life into our own life's and the world around us.  Will you believe in the impossible for yourself?  Think about Mary, she is just a young girl yet she accepts the will of God.  She knows what is possible and what is not possible humanely.  "But Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?"   God calls each of us to accept His word and receive His grace into our lives.  It is He working on your behalf, if you are like Mary and accept what God gives and provides for you.  Will you die to self and live for God, be made new again?

Dear Lord Jesus, You are the Risen Christ, You are real and You call me to new life.  Bring me to the understanding that You want me to have.  Bring me to those that You want me to go too.  May I be obedient to Your Holy Will, May I accept the circumstances of my life knowing that it is You that is directing it.  Mary said yes, with a full heart, may I say yes to You as well.  I know You will not ask anything that can't be done, I just have to believe and follow.  Bless this day Lord, protect us as we go into the vineyard and place hope in our hearts as we till the ground.   In the name of Jesus, Amen.  

Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.  




Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.  1 John 4:4b
