Feast of the Assumption of Blessed Virgin Mary

Mary, the mother of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.
A faithful woman who entrusted herself to her Creator, God.
God beheld His handmaiden and arrayed her in gold and jewels.
He clothed her with the finest and sweetest that one can find.
Her priceless gift of herself to the Lord, became a total generosity.
Before she was espoused to Joseph, her complete faithfulness to the Lord bore us a Savior.

Mary's allegiance and loyalty to God, became a blessing for the children of God, because her relationship with God give her to know the will of God for her life.

Mary's consecration in the will of God, she knew was a preparation for her destiny.

When that pivotal time came, her maturity in the faith and relationship with God, made her ready to receive the good news and surrender to it.

Angel Gabriel came delivering a beautiful message, that only Mary, could answer 'yes' in her own free will.
Her resounding 'yes' to her Lord, in her humility of grace brought hope and salvation to us all.

Mary's cousin, Elizabeth makes a proclamation after the babe in her womb leaped for joy the moment of hearing Mary's greeting... 'blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb...'
Mary echos her responses after Elizabeth's proclamation of hope...
The Magnificat:
Canticle of Mary
"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.
For he has looked upon his handmaid's lowliness,
behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed.
The Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name.
He has shown might with his arm,
dispersed the arrogant of mind and heart.
He has thrown down the rulers from their thrones but lifted up the lowly.
The hungry he has filled with good things;
the rich he has sent away empty.
He has helped Israel his servant, remembering his mercy,
according to his promise to our fathers,to Abraham and to his descendants forever."


When God touches our heart and soul, and out of purpose, we are chosen to do His will, we can't help but to respond.

Blessed Virgin Mary, the mother of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ (Mother of God), we thank you for your beautiful 'yes'.
Book of Revelation...
'A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars...'

Have a blessed day!

Blessed Mother, thank you for interceding for us. :)
