Margaret, here is a bit of advice. If you heed it, it will serve you very well through all your future, no matter what that future may hold!

1) Think about and be grateful for and in utter awe of our marvelous Trinitarian God.

2) Listen with both mind and heart to what our loving God is asking of you, moment by moment.

3) Be aware of and fully trusting in God’s Divine Providence, which is always with you.

4) As Mary at the Annuntiation, respond always with “Behold the handmaid of the Lord, be it done to me according to your will.”
