4th Sunday of Advent (C)


Short Reflection for the 4th Sunday of Advent (C)

ReadingsMicah 5,1-4a; Hebrews 10,5-10; Luke 1,39-45

Selected Gospel Passage:  “When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, ‘Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.  And how does this happen to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me?’”  (Luke 1: 41 - 43)

Reflection:  The visitation of Mary to Elizabeth is part of the series of joyful events that lead to the joyful birth of Christ. Christmas is the celebration of the coming of the Lord into the world and in into our lives.  Yes, the Lord comes to us and meets us wherever we are. We do nlot merit the Lord’s visitation. It is a GIFT to us and to the world. We can only respond: Marana tha that means “COME, LORD JESUS, COME.
