Mary

"Mary did you know, that your baby boy would..."

A well known quote from a well known song. I was thinking about that song today in relation to what I could learn from Mary's attitude. She submitted her dreams, her future, and most importantly, her life to her creator, as willing clay in His hands. Not knowing what lay a head she let God shape and refine her, even though it may have seemed strange.
Thus I can follow her example in submitting my all to Him, not knowing what lays a head. However, I need not fear that; He holds my hand as well as my heart.


Here is the song in youtube version if you have never heard it:
