“God, What’s Your Plan for My Life?”

The angel Gabriel came to Mary and told her all about how she’d
conceive and bear God’s son Jesus, and when she asked how this
could be, he elaborated. Wouldn’t that be nice? Wouldn’t it be nice
to have an angel show up and tell us what God’s plan for our life
is? But... that’s not how it went. The angel actually told her very
little. And after Mary’s “fiat” (“Let it be done unto me according
to thy word”), what happens? “The angel departed.” That’s it. See,
God probably won’t tell you what his plan is for your life. Not all
at once. And Fr. Mike is here today to tell you why it’s actually
better that way, and how we can follow Mary’s example of trust.
