The Holy Spirit will come upon you...
March 22, 2021
Dear Family of Mary!
Day Seventh of our Novena for the Annunciation of the Lord:
And the angel said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God."
(Lk 1:35)
Our Lady received a powerful answer to her question, "How will this be???" She was told exactly how she would become the Mother of God. "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you..." Wow!! Completely clear. God can do all things. No more questions needed. Only Faith!
Our Lady has consistently called us to go to the Holy Spirit, to ask Him to come to us, to place ourselves at His disposal. She knows the power of the Holy Spirit. She knows that we cannot live a life of love and service without Him. We cannot follow Jesus without the help of the Spirit. We need Him every moment of every day!
She told us:
Advent 1983
"Begin by calling on the Holy Spirit each day. The most important thing is to pray to the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit descends on earth, then everything becomes clear and everything is transformed."
Come Holy Spirit! Come!
Let us pray:
Annunciation prayer of faith:
Lord Jesus Christ, Eternal Word,
You became Incarnate as man
in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
You, through whom the universe was created,
began your earthly course,
in the womb of a humble and chaste Virgin.
At the annunciation of this miracle,
Mary responded in faith:
"Let it be done to me according to your word."
May we who are made new creatures by your grace,
respond with such faith, when you call us to your service. Amen
(written by David Bennett)
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
