Yes

Today is the Solemnity of the Annunciation!

The Angel Gabriel said unto Mary that she would be the Mother of God! 

Mary's response to this greeting is summarized in one word,  "YES!" 

"Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word." Luke 1:38

How beautiful is her fiat! 

How beautiful is her "yes"!   

Not my will be done but your will be done, Lord. 

Help me to give my "yes" on a daily basis. 

Not just a "yes" to do more, but to be more according to your holy will.  

"For nothing will be impossible for God." Luke 1:37 

"The Lord said, as he entered the world:/Behold, I come to do your will, O God." Hebrews 10:5.7 

Here is my "yes."
