{ “Amen.” :: Art Print, available on Etsy in February 2013 }
What an act of faith it was for Mary to be able to say “amen” to God even with all of the unknowns that stretched out before her. The one thing she did know was that God loved her, and this was enough.
“…we are all called to be Mary-pregnant with Jesus. If our bodies are His temple and we have the Holy Spirit in us, than aren't we in the same shape she was in and is our response also to be "be it unto me according to thy word?" and is His word to each of us "I've impregnated you and given you something unique to carry for me. I've deliberately and carefully chosen you to carry this seed and see that it is birthed"? ~ Crystal Neubauer, Crystal Neubauer Art and Objects
Help it to be enough for me today, dear Lord, and for all my days ahead may I say to you in hearty trust, “Amen.”
