As we recall the angel Gabriel's announcement to Mary, may we also recognize Mary's response...her "fiat" or "Yes!" to the Lord. Her willingness to serve brought Christ to the world, and changed the course of things for all eternity.
May we also respond with a resounding "yes" to always do God's holy will.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee...
(thanks to this blog for the great image of Mary's Fiat.)
