Yes, I see it all now: I’m the Lord’s maid, ready to serve. Let it be with me just as you say. Luke 1:38 (TM)

I don’t know that Mary sees "it all" when Gabriel announced her immaculate conception. I doubth she saw the pain and problems that would follow. Nevertheless, the important part is not Mary’s omniscience, it’s her willingness. God looks for servants with simple faith and a willingness to serve, no matter the assignment.

Am I "ready to serve" today?
