What is your Advent Fiat

Behold I am the haindmaid of the LORD be it done unto me according to your word! Andvent is a season of waiting, a pause before the messiah is born. We need to sit and wait and prepare our hearts. The Angle asked our Lady to be the mother of God, she paused and then declaired.. Behold I am the haindmaid of the LORD be it done unto me according to your word! Mary teaches us the pattern: Listen. Believe. Receive. Give praise. At the Annunciation, she offers her FIAT — a yes that lets God's life enter the world. One hand of the Pietà cradles Christ, the other stays open. So must ours. How and where is God calling you to give him your FIAT? Spiritual motherhood means emptying ourselves so we can receive divine life and nurture it through the Holy Spirit. We take souls to Our Lady, hide under her mantle when afraid, and offer ourselves as a total gift. The world needs good moms — women who radiate Christ's love and suffer with one another. The feminine genius is vulnerability, staying soft when life tries to harden us. Mama Mary, make me a virtuous woman like you. Help me give my FIAT, be a light that cannot be dimmed, a heart that stays soft, and a soul that radiates Christ's love. Amen.

In this episode, we take a deep look at what it truly means to live with modesty in heart, mind, and appearance—especially in a culture that constantly tells us to seek attention and validation. We'll talk about how children are shaped by what they see online, how womanhood is being redefined through social media, and how we can anchor our identity in the Lord rather than in the world's opinions. Through honest conversation and biblical reflection, we'll explore how to teach modesty not as shame or restriction, but as freedom—a reflection of who we are in Christ. Whether you're a mom, mentor, or young woman learning to navigate your faith in a digital age, this episode offers encouragement and truth for living with grace, confidence, and purpose. ✨ A conversation about hearts, not hemlines—about identity that shines from within.

In a culture that glorifies busyness and distraction, slowing down is countercultural—but it might just be essential for your soul. In this episode, reflect on Psalm 46:10: "Be still and know that I am God," and let it echo through the lens of Philippians 4:4–9. St. Paul calls us to "rejoice in the Lord always," to "let [our] reasonableness be known to everyone," and to "not be anxious about anything." How? By turning everything—our stress, our schedules, our restlessness—into prayer. "Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just… think about these things." • Why hurry is a spiritual threat • How the peace of God "which surpasses all understanding" can guard your heart and mind • Simple, daily practices for reclaiming silence, prayer, and presence This isn't about escaping the world—it's about waking up to the presence of God in the middle of it.
