How could they say that? How could they think that? How could they do that? Only after I had lost plenty of sleep and wasted way too much time obsessing about what had happened did I finally pause and seek Christ\u2019s guidance. And He immediately pointed me to His mother and invited me to ask, what would\u00a0<span class=\"s1\"><i>she<\/i><\/span>\u00a0do? I knew immediately that whatever the answer was, it was probably pretty close to the exact opposite of what I had been doing, and exactly what I needed.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>She\u2019d respond with humility.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Mary was perfect, so she was never at fault, but I\u2019m human enough to admit that I, on the other hand, am not perfect and, unfortunately, I make a ton of mistakes. And while I\u2019m in the midst of madly spiralling over some perceived slight, or defending myself from what appear to be total falsehoods, it never hurts to take a step back and ask myself: is there any truth in this? Most times, if I\u2019m humble enough to admit it, I can see how I may have played a role in the situation or misunderstanding \u2013 even in a small or unintentional way \u2013 and I can take simple steps to make things right, or at least better.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>She wouldn\u2019t try to fix things on her own.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">When I\u2019m in the middle of a negative situation, I always want to take control and make it all okay. Maybe if I send the perfectly worded text, or come up with the best comeback, or do just the right thing, I\u2019ll make everything magically better, or at least bring about my own version of justice. But that wasn\u2019t Mary\u2019s way \u2013 she never relied on herself. At the wedding at Cana, she didn\u2019t go off in search of more wine or attempt to take control; she knew that transformation was not within her power or control \u2013 for that, she always turned to her Son. \u201cWhen we are powerless, let us be quiet and let God act,\u201d says Father Jacques Philippe. The best way to fix things is to be still, pray, and let God do the work. (But be ready to run and fill a bunch of jugs with water if that\u2019s what He asks.)<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>She\u2019d surrender.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Surrendering to the will of God was Mary\u2019s special gift, but to me, it doesn\u2019t come so easily. When I\u2019m especially upset, worried, or obsessing about something, it\u2019s really hard to let it go, even in prayer. That\u2019s when I pray a surrendering rosary, during which time I do not allow myself to think about the thing that\u2019s been taking up all my mental bandwidth. As soon as I catch myself thinking about the concern or worrying situation, I simply wave the thought away, and return to my Hail Marys. It might happen a dozen times, or as many times as there are beads on a rosary, but it\u2019s an intentional and active act of surrender, and calls me continually away from myself \u2013 and the thing that\u2019s got me all worked up \u2013 and towards Christ in the mysteries.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, I had a fairly negative encounter that terribly hurt my feelings (which, I\u2019ll be the first to admit, are very fragile and easily injured), and I replayed the entire [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":333,"featured_media":128495,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[3004,3001],"tags":[],"post_folder":[],"class_list":["post-128494","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-regnum-christi-news","category-news-article"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"","pp_force_visibility":null,"pp_subpost_visibility":null,"pp_inherited_force_visibility":null,"pp_inherited_subpost_visibility":null,"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.8 (Yoast SEO v28.8) -
