“And coming to her, he said, ‘Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you.’ But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. Then the angel said to her, ‘Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.’” Luke 1: 28-30
Key thought:
When the angel Gabriel appeared before Mary during the Annunciation, she did not understand God’s intention for her—but she had faith.
Suggested practice:
Today, let us express our gratitude to Mary for bringing Jesus into our midst. Offer a Hail Mary today, and ask for her strength during those times when you don’t know what God is asking of you.
The Hail Mary
Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen
