Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in holy wonder:

“The Lord is with you.”
(Luke 1:28)

That’s what the angel Gabriel told Your mother, Jesus:

“The Lord is with you.”

That was absolutely true, wasn’t it?

Not only was Your Father with her in support
but by the power of the Holy Spirit

You were – quite literally – about to be in her.

She would carry You within her for nine months

Then for the first time in history

there would occur the greatest oxymoron of all time:

a virgin birth.

Only this would be no mere figure of speech.

This would be… a miracle.

No wonder Mary has been revered ever since!

But when Gabriel told Your mother You were with her

he was not only making that promise to her

but to me.

Because I take You at Your Word

believing in Your virgin birth
Your death, burial and resurrection

You also live

in me.
