The Annunciation: On courtesy

The Joyful Mysteries

It's great  to reflect on Mary's "yes" to God (Read Lk 1:26-38)

The Annunciation has its main focus on the Incarnation: God became man to save us.

The angel and the woman engage in a gracious conversation. No orders are given, but God's plan is presented as a scenario which only the most shuttered soul could refuse. The courtesy of this encounter is arresting: Gabriel's words stir life in the womb of the Virgin and she has shown herself worthy of the greeting 'highly favoured'.

How do I express my 'will'? Is it delivered as an ultimatum or an invitation? Am I aware of the power of words and my ability to build up or knock down by what I say and how I say it?


GOD BLESS, HAVE A GREAT DAY.

“[A Third Time Jesus Foretells His Death and Resurrection] While Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside by themselves, and said to them on the way, “See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death; then they will hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified; and on the third day he will be raised.”” -Matthew 20: 17-19
