The angel Gabriel came to Mary and told her all about how she'd conceive and bear God's son Jesus, and even when she asked how this could be, he elaborated. Wouldn't that be nice? Wouldn't it be nice to have an angel show up and tell us what God's plan for our life is?

But... that's not how it went. The angel actually told her very little. And after Mary's "fiat" ("Let it be done unto me according to thy word"), what happens? "The angel departed." That's it.

See, God probably won't tell you what his plan is for your life. Not all at once. And Fr. Mike is here today to tell you why it's actually better that way, and how we can follow Mary's example of trust.
