Help Me to Say "Yes"
"I am afraid of saying 'Yes,' Lord.
Where will you take me?
I am afraid of drawing the longer straw,
I am afraid of signing my name to an unread agreement,
I am afraid of the 'yes' that entails other 'yeses.'
And yet I am not at peace.
You pursue me, Lord, you besiege me.
I seek out the din for fear of hearing you, but in a moment of
silence you slip through.
I turn from the road, for I have caught sight of you, but at the end
of the path you are there awaiting me.
Where shall I hide? I meet you everywhere.
Is it then impossible to escape you?

Of the many facets of the gift,
what do you recognize in yourself?
Say 'Yes,'
I need your 'yes' as I needed Mary's 'yes' to come to earth,
For it is I who must do your work,
It is I who must live in your family,
It is I who must be in your neighborhood, and not you.
For it is my look that penetrates, and not yours,
My words that carry weight, and not yours,
My life that transforms, and not yours.
Give all to me, abandon all to me.
I need your 'yes' to be united with you and to come down to earth,
I need your 'yes' to continue saving the world!
O Lord, I am afraid of your demands, but who can resist you?
•
That your Kingdom may come and not mine,
That your will may be done and not mine,
Help me to say 'Yes.' "
The purpose of the sevenfold gift is to empower daughters in service to the Order, impacting lives and spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ worldwide. Explore the significance of the spiritual gifts and the call to share them with others. Mentoring daughters for divine service is a strategic goal to fulfill the mission.
