“Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be
done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed
from her.” Luke 1:38
It is through Mary’s “YES” that the promise of the prophets finds
fulfillment. Mary serves as a role model for all stewards.

Then the angel departed from her.
Luke 1:38
What a wonderful day it it. Not only is it the Fourth Sunday
of Advent, it is also Christmas Eve. Let us focus for a
moment on a person who plays a central role in the Advent/
Christmas seasons: Mary. In the story of the Annunciation,
there’s one line that always strikes me. It is the last line, the
line cited above.
The angel has just accepted Mary’s “yes” to bear “the Son of
the Most High,” and then he leaves her! Couldn’t he have
given Mary some details on what she should do next? If I
were Mary, I might have asked, “Is there a manual that goes
with this? Something that will tell me how I am to raise the
Messiah?” But no. The angel departs. Mary has her faith. She
has her personal relationship with God. And she has one day
at a time—one wonderful day at a time—to partner with God
in bringing hope and love into the world. Mary has what each
one of us has—faith, and a beautiful son, who is also residing
within us.
