'I pray that you and your family will have a very “Mary” Christmas—that Jesus will enlarge Himself in you as He did in Mary, that He will express Himself in you as He did in Mary when she met her cousin Elizabeth while carrying The Baby, that He will exit Himself through you into the world around you as He did through Mary, and that He will extend Himself and His interests through you and far beyond you as He did through Mary—for His highest possible glory!'
Oh, how this prayer from a dear disciple-er permeates my heart!!
Jesus, ENLARGE Yourself in us.....would you be so visible that others notice You....would you change the way we look and the way we walk?
Jesus, EXPRESS Yourself in us....would you move in us in a wondrous way to let us and others know you are present?
Jesus, EXIT Yourself through us....would you come forth from us into the places You have us walk and into the lives of those we encounter?
Jesus, EXTEND Yourself through us....We long for Your desires and interests and passions to extend to the ends of the earth until the end of time for Your glory and Your honor.
Blessings sisters! And "Mary" Christmas!!
