AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVER
Your “yes” changes everything.
Let It Be Me invites you into 100 powerful devotions forged by Mary, Mother of Jesus’s courageous yes, and the lifelong journey that followed. Mary’s story becomes a mirror for your own moments of uncertainty, grief, hope, and everyday resilience.
At the heart of this collection is a practice the author calls “Marynating”—the intentional act of immersing yourself in Mary’s virtues, compassion, and wisdom so her example can gently shape and transform your life. Each devotion pairs thoughtful insight with a practical reflection and a simple prayer designed to help you gain clarity when life feels uncertain, strengthen your inner courage, and stay grounded in what truly matters day to day.
This book invites you to be more present, more honest, and more open to growth in the middle of real life. Whether you’re navigating change, searching for meaning, or simply craving a moment of calm, these reflections offer grounded encouragement for the everyday moments that often matter the most.
