25 March 2019, the Annunciation
ON COMING INTO THE WORLD (Hebrews 10:4-10)
Every time we write ‘2019’ we acknowledge it. If it is 2019 what happened 2019 years ago?
Today we remember what was then known at first only to Mary. God entered his
world as one of us. ‘He dwelt among us’. He entered into human experience and showed
us the way to live. With unbelievable humility he had first asked our
permission and in the person of Mary we reached the heights of human welcome
and accepted his coming without having any idea where it would lead. It led to Calvary and Mary was there again,
accepting this awful consequence of his coming.
Rejoicing in welcoming the Son of God we ask that we may follow the way
he has opened up for us.
