AN UNHEARD YES!

 

AN UNHEARD YES!

 

Mary’s YES=was the YES

No one heard of

At the time

 

But it is

THE YES=that would

Eventually be heard

AROUND the world

AN UNHEARD YES!

 

“For NO WORD

From God=will ever fail”                                                                                                    Luke 1:37

 

“I am the LORD’S SERVANT’

Mary answered=

‘May YOUR WORD to ne

Be fulfilled’

Then the angel left her”                                                                                               Luke 1:38

 

That UNHEARD of yes

Between Mary and God=

A true covenant

That would=CHANGE THE WORLD

 

The limitless God the Father=

Does not allow himself

To be CONSTRAINED

By time and space

 

He WORKS THROUGH

Ordinary people=like Mary

Who have willing hearts

And ORDINARY LIVES

Like you and me

 

We just have to say “YES” too

AN UNHEARD YES!

 

“If I were hungry=

I would not tell you

 

FOR THE WORLD=is mine

And all that is in it”                                                                                                             Psalm 50:12

 

“You are

The light of the WORLD=

A town=built on a hill=

Cannot be hidden”                                                                                                                Matthew 5:14

 

And MARY’S YES

Was not hidden=it was

It is

The most important yes

IN ALL of human history

Other than Jesus’

 

Today we have=the genealogy=of Jesus

And how we get to MARY’S YES

A yes=that changed the world

The WHOLE WORLD=knows of it now

 

“For the wisdom

OF THIS WORLD=is foolishness

In God’s sight

 

As it is written=

‘He catches the wise

In their craftiness’”                                                                                                               1 Corinthians 3:19

 

“Do not=LOVE THE WORLD

Or anything=in the world

 

If anyone loves THE WORLD=

Love for the Father

Is not in him”                                                                                                                 1 John 2:15

 

Mary’s YES brought

The good news=CARRIED to us

By the birth of Jesus Christ

 

That yes=was=is

WILL always be

With us

 

Until the END OF TIME

THAT UNHEARD YES!

Said by the young woman Mary

 

Ask yourself=WHAT YES=

You can say to God today

 

In Jesus’=Mary’s=and in the name=of our HOLY and LOVING=Holy Father God!
