12/8/25: Let It Be Done According to His Will

Immaculate Conception 2025. 12.08.25.

In this homily, I reflect on why the Immaculate Conception matters for us today. Mary received the gift of being spotless from the very beginning, but God desires that same holiness for us in heaven. Even though she was without sin, Mary still suffered and still had to trust God without seeing the full plan. Her “let it be done according to your will” becomes a model for us—especially in the struggles of family, work, or life. As we move through Advent, may we learn from Mary’s trust, offer God our intentions, and place our hope in Jesus just as she did.
