“I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her. -Luke 1:38
In other words "thy will be done". I'm a bit of a control freak, I'm not good at just letting things happen. I want to control, contrive and mastermind. I don't like waiting either- seeing how something unfolds. I want to know how things are going to work out...and yet I'm comfortable with the concept of "holy mystery" and not needing to understand everything about God. That's where faith comes in I guess. I'm learning a lot at the moment about not being in control of some things, of not knowing some things and learning to accept and trust the mysteries of this life as much as I trust God.
