May 31 – Feast of the Visitation.
Luke 1:39-56
Mary, our model of service and humility
Without hesitation, Mary set out on a journey to visit her cousin, Elizabeth. She stayed with her to serve her and shared the good news with her. The presence of Mary brought joy and new refreshing air to Elizabeth. By setting on her journey as a young pregnant young girl, Mary took a serious risk. Yet, she becomes a beacon of hope, humility, service, and courage for generations of men and women who face challenges in their daily service to the Lord. We are reminded on this feast that those who do not live to serve others do not serve to live. By reaching out to others in the way of Mary, the world would be a very different place. Such a world will be filled with gratitude and joy, love and peace. Let every living soul sing, "Magnificat anima mea dominum"
Jesus, I trust in you
