MARY WONDERED=WE WONDER TOO!

(The feast of=THE ANUNCIATION!)

 

Today we CELEBRATE=The feast of THE ANUNCIATION=I am SURE Mary

WONDERED about=THE PLAN=of the HOLY FATHER GOD=and what he HAD

IN store for her LIFE=Just as WE WONDER TOO!=Mary WONDERED=Since she was

A VIRGIN=How she could POSSIBLY=CONCEIVE A CHILD=But the ANGEL told her=

It would be=THE WORK of=The HOLY SPIRIT of God=”The ANGEL answered’=’The

HOLY SPIRIT=will come on you=and the POWER of=the MOST HIGH=will overshadow

You=So the Holy ONE=to be born=will be called=The SON OF GOD’”                                    Luke 1:35

 

Mary did WONDER=About GOD’S PLAN for her life=Just as you and I wonder=HOW

God the FATHER=and the SON=Can achieve anything=with our LIVES=But Just as=Mary

TRULY and fully CONCEIVED Jesus=in her womb=We can CONCEIVE Jesus=the Father=

And the HOLY SPIRIT  of God=in our HEARTS=It is alright for us TO WONDER=for our

Mary=did wonder=A LITTLE TOO!

“Listen to this Job=Stop and consider GOD’S WONDERS”                                                     Job 37:14

“Show me=THE WONDERS=Of your great love=You who save=By your right hand=

Those who take refuge =in you=From their foes”                                                                               Psalm 17:7

“I will SHOW WONDERS=In the heavens above=and signs on the earth below=Blood

And fire and=Billows of smoke”                                                                                                              Acts 2:19

 

And yet for ALL of Mary’s WONDER=She IMMEDIATELY SAID=YES to the Holy Father

God=she said YES to BEAR JESUS=The God-man who would=CHANGE ALL OF

HISTORY==I don’t know WHY=she had such FAITH=or why she said Yes=But the

ANGEL=said to her=”For no  word from God=WILL EVER FAIL”                                                Luke 1:37

Mary’s answer=”I am the LORD’S SEVANT’=Mary answered=’May your WORD to me=

BE FULFILLED’=Then the ANGEL left her”                                                                                        Luke 1:38

 

GOOD for Mary=GOOD for God=Good for OUR HOLY FAMILY!=But what about us?=

Do we have THE FAITH=To utter  “YES”=to the Holy Father=Just like Mary did=Just like

Jesus did=Do we  TRUST GOD’S PLAN=for our lives?=MARY WONDERED=WE WONDER TOO!=

RECEIVE the SPIRIT of God=Into your hearts=and say YES to the Father=to Jesus=and

To the SPIRIT OF GOD!

 

“Create in me=A PURE HEART=O God=and renew a STEADFAST SPIRIT=within me”          Psalm 51:10

“I will give you=A NEW HEART=and put a NEW SPIRIT in you=I will remove=From you=Your

Heart of sone=and give you a HEART OF FLESH”                                                                         Ezekiel 36:26

“IF you then=Though you are evil=Know how to give good gifts=To your Children=How

Much more  will  YOUR FATHER in heaven=Give the Holy Spirit=to those who ask him!”   Luke  11:13

 

And so that MY SISTERS  AND BROTHERS=If you are WONDERING=About God’s plan=

For your life=REMEMBER our Mary WONDERED TOO!=albeit briefly=but said “YES”

Anyway=Mary did=Joseph did=I DID=In some small way=ON my deathbed at age 22=WE

ALL WONDER=Except of course=for Jesus=The HOLY FATHER GOD=has a GREAT PLAN=for

Your life=Through the SPIRIT OF LIFE=and the Spirit of Jesus=and Mary and Joseph=THE

HOLY FAMILY!=Have a SERVANT’S HEART=and the FAITH of Mary=and You will GET IT DONE!

In the names of Jesus=and the HOLY FATHER GOD=and the HOLY FAMILY!
