“Greetings,
O favored one,
The Lord is with you!” (Luke 1:28)
Let Gabriel’s good news
For Mary
Be good news
For you.All in Christ are,
Like Mary,
Favored— “graced.”
You have received blessing
That you didn’t earn—
Wondrous grace
That you could not buy.
God has seen you,
Discovered you,
Chosen you,
Favored you,
Delighted in you,
And called you
For His great purposes.
You’re as unlikely
A candidate for favor
As Mary—
But just as surely,
You have been graced,
Child of God,
The Lord is with you. |
