Ave Maria Meditations
+In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Mary, when you were presented in the temple, your parents chose to have your life dedicated to God. You would live in the temple and serve God and the priests as you grew up. What they couldn’t control was your heart. But that had been dedicated to God long before your birth!
Blessed Mother, teach me how to say yes to God as you did. Your “yes” at the Annunciation changed the course of salvation history. The world would not have been saved without your willingness. You knew it would be a challenging mission. You accepted it anyway.
I humbly ask that you help me grow in desire to serve God. Help me to say yes to His will even when it’s scary! I also ask that you keep in mind my intentions: (State your intentions here)
Thank You, God, for Mary’s yes throughout her life. Help me to emulate it!
+In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
