YOU WILL CONCEIVE AND BEAR A SON
(Luke 1:26-38)
Nine months from today we shall
celebrate the birthday of the Lord Jesus. The Church in her wisdom designed it
that we celebrate today the Annunciation. In this Solemnity we celebrate the
love of God. We thank God for the gift of our Mother Mary who accepted the Word
of the angel and gave her fiat that necessitated the Incarnation.
This Solemnity challenges us to
believe in the word of God without doubting, like Mary. We learn from Mary to
make ourselves available for God to use us. We Learn to cooperate with the
grace of God so that His will may be done in our lives.
Mary conceived and gave the world
the best gift from heaven. She became the gate through which God entered into
human race. Let us make way for God to enter into our families, our Church, our
society and our world through us.
Through Mary the world received a
Saviour who saved us through His passion, death and resurrection. Let us accept
the fruit of Mary's womb. Let us return love for love. Mary has conceived, ours
is to receive. Let us prepare ourselves to welcome all that God in His love has
deposited in us. He has bestowed upon you all that is good. Nurture them till
maturity and bring forth lifestyle that will lead you to heaven at last.
LET US PRAY
We thank You, God, for your love
on man that made you release the Holy announcement that gave us hope through
Mary the Mother of Your Son. Help us to live loving You all the days of our
lives. Grant us an increased faith in Your Son our Lord Jesus Christ just like
Mary and bring us to heaven at last where You live and reign for ever and ever.
Amen
God bless your day.
Happy Solemnity
