Theme: HOW CAN THIS BE?
Dear friends in Christ, N'wokafu YESU KRISTO...
Mary's question to the Angel Gabriel reveal her humanity and the reality
of impossibilities as far as we are concern. The angel assures her and us of
the fact God is not limited by human impossibilities. All that is required of
us is an act of faith. When we take a step towards God in faith and generosity,
He does what is impossible in us and with us.
David's act of faith and generosity led to the perpetual establishment of
his royal household, a promise that is been culminated in the birth of Jesus
Christ as being announced to Mary in the Gospel. Mary act of faith, despite her
perceived impossility (how can this be since...), led God to break through the
history of men.
Beloved, as we end the advent season this morning, let us pray for the
strength that once again, we too will be able to take courageous steps of
generosity and faith towards God, especially during this season of joy.
PRAYER
Almighty God and Father, May the coming joy of Christmas make us strong in
our act of faith towards you, our God. Amen.
May God bless you.
