Luke 1:38
Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.”

This is Mary’s response to the angel’s news that she would conceive by the Holy Spirit and give birth to the Son of God. Talk about a major twist in life plans! But she gave us the perfect example of saying “yes” to God. Wouldn’t it be great if God would simply tell each of us what we needed to do to find fulfillment and happiness? Perhaps God is doing exactly that…but we aren’t listening. For us to hear…we have to empty ourselves so that there is a space for God to fill. A good practice is to set aside quiet time to surrender to a Higher Power and “let go”…detach from the constantly grasping mind. Create a space to listen for God’s unique message for you. Sit in silence for ten to twenty minutes and simply practice letting go. What may sound like a ‘waste of time’ will change your life for the better. I guarantee it.
