YOUR YES WILL COST YOU SOMETHING | September 25, 2026 | Fr. Dave Concepcion

What does it really mean to say “YES” to God? In this powerful message, Fr. Dave Concepcion reflects on Mary’s Fiat—“Be it done to me according to your word”—and reveals why a genuine yes to God requires complete surrender, trust, obedience, and the courage to embrace the cross. Fr. Dave Concepcion explains that Mary’s yes was not a one-time decision. It became a lifelong commitment to God’s plan, even when that path included uncertainty, rejection, suffering, and Calvary. True transformation begins when we surrender our own will and trust God even when we cannot see what comes next. Through personal experiences of hardship, obedience, ministry, disappointment, and perseverance, Fr. Dave Concepcion shows that saying yes is only the beginning. The greater challenge is remaining faithful to that yes when the journey becomes painful. Fr. Dave Concepcion reminds us that suffering does not have to be the end of the story. The Christian journey looks beyond Calvary toward the empty tomb, trusting that the God who was faithful before remains faithful today. This message from Fr. Dave Concepcion challenges you to examine your own response to God: Are you willing to surrender? Are you willing to embrace the unknown? And when your yes leads you toward the cross, will you remain faithful until the end? #FrDaveConcepcion #SayYesToGod #SurrenderToGod #TrustGod #MarysFiat #EmbraceTheCross #ObedienceToGod #ChristianFaith #CatholicSermon #FaithInGod
