The lilies of St Joseph
At just a single yes, eternity was changed. God smiled. The Heavens rejoiced! Mary said yes!
Her "yes" resounded in echoes amongst the stars. It filled the air with Hope. This young Virgin, resigned Her will to the Almighty, giving the weary world Salvation. Thank you dear Mother. Thank you for taking on the evil that was and is crushing humanity. You are our example of strength. You are our joy. You are our Mother!
At just a single "yes", You aid us now in our trials. You helped us, never doubting that God's word was true. You fell into the arms of the Almighty God. Even though the words of the prophet Simeon stirred your heart to the bone, while, your elation in handing Him, our Jesus, Your Son, into the waiting arms of him who waited so long to see Him.
Conditioned in the teachings in the Temple, you prayed that you could be a maidservant to the Messiah and God graced You as His Mother. Oh what Joy! What Peace! What Love!
At just a single "yes", you became the Mother of God. A title that shall never be overrun. The power that You possess is strong just like Your words, " be it done unto me according to Thy word", and now we are "your" maid servants. We bow with reverence to You Beloved Mother Mary. We trust in You and Your spotless and pure intercession and Love. Grant, that through Your sweet and tender Mercy for us all, that we may give "our yes" to your Son, our Father and obey as His children always uniting "our yes" to "yours".
Queen of Heaven and earth, we Love You! Thank you a thousand times infinity. May we rejoice with You and the Heavens this Holy Christmas. As we recall the most Holy Birth of our Lord in that stable.
Hail Mary! Full of Grace! The Lord is with You! Blessed are You among all women and blessed is the Fruit of Your womb, Jesus!
