OUR EXAMPLE IN FAITH!
Today we celebrate-
Our BLESSED MOTHER Mary
Our dear EMAMPLE in FAITH
Today we celebrate
The Annunciation too
“The angel DEPARTED from her” Luke
1:38
Let us NOT overlook
This line=For Mary
Would FACE many challenges
What a challenge
It must have been
For her to MANAGE
In this life changing news
But God was with her=
For months=in the womb
When future trials came
MARY=OUR EXAMPLE=IN FAITH!
“I have set you
AN EXAMPLE-
That you should do
As I have done=for you”
John 13:15
“FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE-
As I follow
The EXAMPLE of Christ”

Corinthians 11:1
“Don’t let anyone-
Look down on you
Because you are young
But SET AN EXAMPLE
For the believers in speech
In conduct=in love=in faith
And in purity”
1 Timothy 4:12
Yes=that is what
Mary did for us
ALL those years ago
Set an example for us
IN all of these things
MARY=OUR EXAMPLE IN FAITH!
Mary’s example
Helps us face
THE UNCERTAINTY=we face
In this life
Yes=Mary is an EXAMPLE
For us=in each MOMENT
Of faith-joy-and surrender
As God CONTINUES to lead us
As he led Mary
MARY=OUR EXAMPLE IN FAITH!

Set them an EXAMPLE
By doing=what is good”

Because Christ=suffered for you
Leaving you AN EXAMPLE

In his steps” 1

We may NOT
Have an ANGEL=to lead us
The way that Mary did
But we can PRAY
To our guardian angels
And walk BY FAITH
And not by sight
Mary=IS OUR EXAMPLE
In our faith
And we accept her
And remain confident=GOD
Will continue to lead us
And NEVER let us down
Just as he led MARY
OUR EXAMLE IN OUR FAITH!
Upward and onward with Mary
And her Son=Jesus Christ
In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our EVER PRESENT=Holy
Father God!
