 His Word was made flesh and dwelt among  us" I have never really understood what is meant by God's "Word". I have glossed over it and thought that it signified Jesus and of course it does but God also spoke through the Old Testament prophets and it was this "Word" they delivered to the "chosen people".I have read in philosophy books the  concept that all existence has its base in the Logos and I think that it is this word translated from the Greek has become the "Word" in English.  But what this means is still a source of confusion to me.

Dear Lord, let Mary's Fiat be my goal in life and let me avoid anything that can be a source of sin,

Thinking more about the "Word" I suppose that anything which reveals God to us . Anything that  turns our beings to the Father is His Word revealed through the Holy Spirit. It is the  Trinity our revealed God.

May I become more grounded in my Faith, Our Lady is the source of Jesus' humanity and our Church may she intercede to have God's grace purify us so that we too can be ready to be "according to your will".
