Mary
was living at the beginning
living
in real-time
unaware
of the rest of the story
the
way things would end
Without
the knowledge of Easter
only
knowing what was
living
in the moment
unlike
all of us
Yet
she is the one who sang
She
is the one who submitted
giving
her life to God
and
giving to His calling
She
sang to the Father
the
servant song, Magnificat;
glorify
me with her,
let
me do Your work
