For nothing is impossible with God.
I am the Lord's servant. (Luke 1, 37-38)

Faith, listening and offering our service are, for us SMICs, three virtues of Mary to be imitated. These virtues appear clearly in the text of the Gospel and in particular in this phrase, "Nothing is impossible for who those have faith and put their confidence in God". Mary lived this grace; this was the way that Mary chose, to live a life of pleasant offerings to God. Teach us Mother Mary, to walk this way, too.
