How beautiful it is that the Blessed Virgin does not set out from what She is capable of doing, what She feels like doing, what She has the talent for but from what God is asking of Her .
Her response is : “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Luke 1, 38
This thought lead me through difficulties many times.
Very often I felt that I am too small and weak for a task , it far surpasses my capabilities . Then always Mary’s “yes” came to my mind . Lets not start out that what am I capable of doing in my own being, created from a handful of dust , but lets look at what God is asking of me.
