Today's Readings
Feast of the Immaculate Conception
But Yahweh God called to the man. 'Where are you?' he asked. 'I heard the sound of you in the garden,' he replied. 'I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.' 'Who told you that you were naked?' he asked. 'Have you been eating from the tree I forbade you to eat?' The man replied, 'It was the woman you put with me; she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.' Then Yahweh God said to the woman, 'Why did you do that?' The woman replied, 'The snake tempted me and I ate.'
Then Yahweh God said to the snake, 'Because you have done this,
Accursed be you
of all animals wild and tame!
On your belly you will go
and on dust you will feed
as long as you live.
I shall put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
it will bruise your head
and you will strike its heel.'The man named his wife 'Eve' because she was the mother of all those who live.
Psalm 98: 1-4
Sing a new song to Yahweh,
for he has performed wonders,
his saving power is in his right hand
and his holy arm.
Yahweh has made known his saving power,
revealed his saving justice for the nations to see,
mindful of his faithful love and his constancy
to the House of Israel.The whole wide world has seen
the saving power of our God.
Acclaim Yahweh, all the earth,
burst into shouts of joy!
Ephesians 1: 3-6, 11-12
Blessed be God
the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us
with all the spiritual blessings of heaven
in Christ.
Thus he chose us in Christ
before the world was made
to be holy and faultless
before him in love,
marking us out for himself beforehand,
to be adopted sons,
through Jesus Christ.
Such was his purpose and good pleasure,
to the praise of the glory of his grace,
his free gift to us in the Beloved,
And it is in him
that we have received our heritage,
marked out beforehand as we were,
under the plan of the One
who guides all things
as he decides by his own will,
chosen to be,
for the praise of his glory,
the people who
would put their hopes in Christ
before he came.
Luke 1: 26-38
In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the House of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. He went in and said to her, ‘Rejoice, you who enjoy God’s favour! The Lord is with you.’ She was deeply disturbed by these words and asked herself what this greeting could mean, but the angel said to her, ‘Mary, do not be afraid; you have won God’s favour. Look! You are to conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David; he will rule over the House of Jacob for ever and his reign will have no end.’ Mary said to the angel, ‘But how can this come about, since I have no knowledge of man?’ The angel answered, ‘The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God. And I tell you this too: your cousin Elizabeth also, in her old age, has conceived a son, and she whom people called barren is now in her sixth month, for nothing is impossible to God.’ Mary said, ‘You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said.’ And the angel left her.
R. We celebrate the unique holiness
of Mary –
Luke 1: 37
Mary said, ‘You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said.’
R. We heard the story of Adam and Eve
and we know this is our story.
We fail at times. None of us
like to think of ourselves as sinners.
It doesn't mean we are bad,
but we are not perfect –
Fr. Joe likes to think of a bulls-eye
The Old Testament sees sin like this –
We miss the bulls eye –
We begin our lives too in
original sin –
God created us and didn't want
robots –
He gave us a free will to choose
love or not to love –
We can make up our own rules
to choose to do our
own thing and oppose God.
God gave Adam and Eve great gifts,
but He told them
not to do something and
they disobeyed –
The Holy Father declared this the
year of mercy –
God's love is so great He
wanted us to know this –
God created Mary as the Mother
of Jesus, Mary full of grace –
Mary never failed Jesus –
Mary always did what God asks –
When asked to be Jesus' Mother –
Mary said "yes" –
When Mary was under the
cross – Jesus gave
Mary to us as our Mother –
We honor Mary today and she
asks us to always follow
God.
Give the gift that keeps giving.
