Deuteronomy, Chapter
5, Verse 29
Would that they might always be of such a
mind, to fear me and to keep all my
commandments! Then they and their descendants would prosper forever.
Our loving God knew Israel
would become full of hubris and haughtiness and forget the commandments that He
enjoined them and they needed a savior. Today is the Feast of the Nativity of
Mary the mother of our savior: Jesus Christ. Let us will all humility; honor
her is some small way today. Let us not
be like the Angels of God who fell from heaven by an act of pride and rebellion
by refusing to honor her. Let us be like unto Gabriel who on announcing the
conception of Christ said to Mary:
Let us this day emulate
Christ’s mother and ours: Mary and never weary of union with Christ through the
most Holy Eucharist. This day try to spend some time in the Blessed Sacrament
Chapel.
