Mary and Son


Mother of God

Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God - January 1

Song of Acceptance

Mother

My soul trembles in the presence of the loving Creator
and my spirit prepares itself to walk hand in hand
with the God who saves Israel
because I have been accepted by God
as a simple helpmate.
Yes, forever in the life of humankind
people will sing of this loving encounter;
through remembering this moment, the faithful
will know all things are possible in God.
Holy is the place within me where God lives.
Gods tender fingers reach out from age to age
to touch the softened inner spaces of those
who open their souls in hope.
I have experienced the creative power of Gods
embracing arms
and I know the cleansing fire of unconditional love.

(Miryam of Nazareth, Ann Johnson)
