he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. (Proverbs 30:5 NABRE)
Trust in God. Today's verse expresses total confidence in the one who rescues from death.* Trust is having confidence in someone and relying on them.*
Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her. (Luke 1:38). She trusted God completely when Gabriel the archangel informed her she would be the mother of the long-awaited savior. She accepted God's call on her life with trust.
God gives signs to justify our trust in him. For Mary, she was told about Elizabeth, by Gabriel. Elizabeth had conceived a son in her old age as a sign that nothing is impossible with God.
Do we look for the signs in our own lives? Do we exercise our faith with the openness that is required to see God's hand on our lives?
Today, as Mary and Joseph did, as Saint Francis of Assisi did, and as so many others have done after recognizing the signs of God in this world, I will trust in him in all situations.
Saint Francis of Assisi, patron of animals, who chose poverty and humility in imitation of Christ, pray for us.
