Week 2 - The Journey Advent week 2
"But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be." Luke 1:29
The depth of our Mother's love. Have you ever pondered the life of Mary? She being the first one within the New Testament to be overshadowed by the Holy Spirit with her fiat, leads the way for us to receive her Son into our hearts. So we to can become a living tabernacle for God.
We get to see the depth of her pondering when she goes to visit with Elizabeth with her response to her. "He has helped Israel his servant, remembering his mercy, according to his promise to our fathers, to Abraham and to his descendants forever." Luke 1:54-55. She understands what is being asked of her and the importance of the mission her Father has given her.
In our own lives, in our relationship God reveals himself when we ponder our own events. To see how the Holy Spirit is working in and thru us. When we face those areas that are troubling, or causes us concern, do we shrink back or do we move forward with the knowledge that God has prepared us for the next part of the journey. Have a blessed day and ponder the many mysteries of everyday life and how God is with us thru them all.
What is God saying to me? Be at peace.
Dear Lord God, there is much to be learned when we slow down and ponder, when we ponder the gift of life and see the plans that You have for us. Thank You for being able to watch the happen chances of everyday life and be able to respond to Your call. Thank You being witness to the movements of Your Holy Spirit. Bless this Day Father, thank You for the gift of Mary, may we imitate her faithful service to You. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
