Luke 1:46-47
“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior.”
Mary’s statement resounds within me. When I am in the flow of the will of God…my inner most being exults. No matter what struggles are in my life…there seems to be an inner calm…a certain “yes” that pervades my interior. There are really no words to describe it accurately. It is at the level of mystery. When I am operating in the will of God I am saying yes to this great Mystery…while saying no to my egocentric desires. And in the process I am becoming more fully me. It is being done to me more than me doing anything! I wish I could say this is the case all the time but it is far from it! I must continually return to the need to “let go.” May we all surrender to God’s desires for us and say, “May it be done to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38).
