Something the priest said really struck me- if each day you take a moment to consecrate yourself to Mary (nothing formal, just entrust yourself to her hands), then she would help you to imitate her holiness and obedience so perfectly.
I am going to do this every day for the rest of advent, along with praying an extra 3 Hail Marys each day to go along with it. By Christmas, our Blessed Mother will have prepared my heart for her Son's coming better than I ever could.
I just finished the Immaculate Conception novena from praymorenovenas.com, and it was beautiful. I grew so much closer to Mama Mary- oh the power of prayer! I highly recommend that you sign up to receive their novenas, which are emailed straight to you.
May the Blessed Virgin Mary, conceived so immaculately, watch over you always :)
Love,
A Catholic Teen
