Mary, having had her life and her plans upended by a visit from an archangel does what any of us would do at that point, right?  Nope - she doesn't sit in her room and reconfigure.  She doesn't go talk to mom and dad and wonder what to do next.  She doesn't recalibrate.  She goes for three months to visit and assist her cousin Elizabeth.  Because that's what being filled with the Spirit invites us to, right?
