Welcome to Pro Sanctity’s Holiness Helpers on Spirit 102.7. I’m Nancy Tefft, and this is “May: A Celebration of Mary in Music.” Today’s theme is a meditation on the life of Mary and how her choices reflected Christ’s presence within her.
As she prayed alone in her room, an angel appeared to her and asked her to be the Mother of God. Her faith was so strong that she did not even consider what this meant for herself. God’s Will be done.
Next she went to visit her cousin Elizabeth. Elizabeth was humbled by Mary’s presence, but Mary replied, “My soul is magnified by the Lord,” always directing the adoration back to Jesus where it belongs.
Then there was the long and difficult journey to Bethlehem and delivering in a stable. God’s Will be done. She did not fuss; she was not upset. She was grateful for the stable, where she could rest.
Later, she stood at the Cross. She was a pillar of strength watching her Son suffer for all humankind. She did not lament the unfairness of it all. God’s Will be done.
Finally, at the end of her Earthly life, she was assumed into Heaven and crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth. As Mother of all creation–the New Eve–she was made advocate and intercessor. She brings our petitions to her Son and keeps us in line in turn.
