In a world full of whims, excessive distractions, and haunting arrogance let’s choose to focus on the commitment to finish what God starts within each of us. Without God’s Holy strength to sustain Mary along the way from the journey to Bethlehem all the way to the Cross, she would have succumbed to her weariness. Yet, she kept going.
We live in a weary time. Take hope in the commitment of a mother / mother figure who will not give up, and her God who supplied what she needed when she needed it.
Christmas can make us weary if we let worldly things, functions, festivities, and hardships get to us. Don’t give in to the worldly. Surrender to the Holy strength of God. Today, let’s all be a Mary.
Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word. Luke 1:38
