The
Conception of the Blessed
Virgin Mary
Genesis
3:9-15, 20. Ephesians 1:1-6,
11-12. Luke 1:26-38
You and all the sons and
daughters of the Father’s
love are called to respond
in generosity and self-giving
in two ways as you live
through the life the Father
offers. First you are challenged
to perfection as you grow
through childhood, maturity
and old age – the
perfection of the individual
and particular persona designed
for you before time was
in the image of the Lord
of All.
Secondly, the sons and
daughters of the Father’s
love are called to make
their contribution to he
Father’s world as
they are led and guided
by Our Holy Spirit, offering
all that they achieve to
Him who called them into
being.
Both things are achieved
in the faithful and obedient
in Love’s calling
through the beloved Son
of the Most High and the
humble, obedient one who
faithfully fulfilled her
glorious destiny through
the grace and power of My
indwelling.
