Happy new year all! God bless!

Bless too the Mother of our God, on this her Feast.

From the Irish Jesuits on Sacred Site:

She was “full of grace” not only for being chosen to be God’s mother but in her total openness to be filled with that love of God. We too are constantly “graced” and we too can be full of grace not because we were baptised into the Catholic community but by our own total, active identification with the way of Jesus by our opening up to the call of God as it unfolds in the unique circumstances of my own life. I do this through total and unconditional service of those around me. It is a formidable challenge but it also brings untold joys. Christianity, contrary to the opinion of some, is not for wimps.

Lord, help me see you in all things, your spirit in all men and that I may choose to act wisely, that I may honour your name.

Deo gratias.
