You ended it, O blessed Mother with "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word" and it all set us to an ever new beginning happening daily with your Son Jesus Christ's coming!
God and man too far apart from each other before because of the Fall are now so close and near with each other when you, O blessed Virgin, said yes to His Holy Will so that the promise of old is fulfilled.
Brothers and sisters: It is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats take away sins. For this reason, when Christ came into the world, he said… “behold, I come to do your will, O God.” By this “will,” we have been consecrated through the offering of the Body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:4, 7, 10
Pray for us, our Mother Mary that like you we may be open always to God's will, intently listening to His voice and most of all obeying His word so that like you, we may bring Jesus Christ to this world, be enfleshed in us to become His presence. Amen.
