One day, out of nowhere, while Mary was busy with her chores, an angel spoke to her and gave her a fantastic, incredible message: she would be the mother of the long-awaited Messiah. She accepted this role with simple words, saying she was ready to do God’s will. She said fiat… “let it be done.”
That was only the first of ten-thousand fiats she had to say.

Have no fear. I myself am gathering these sons from all parts of the world into my cohort; all are now responding to my call!
Blue Book #63 c,d
If now and then you meet up with some obstacles, with difficulties or with misunderstandings, offer everything to my Heart.
Today’s we celebrate Mary’s Fiat… her YES to the Lord, but the celebration doesn’t end there. We get to carry it with us, and with the help of the Holy Spirit through the Immaculate Heart of Mary we are empowered to do the same… to say YES Lord… to all the Divine assignments that are ours to fulfill. And to keep saying YES, even when things get tough.
