Fourth Sunday of Advent
Love
"The world being unworthy to receive the son
of God directly from the hands of the Father,
He gave His son to Mary
for the world to receive Him from her."
St Augustine
“The modern world’s feverish struggle
for unbridled, often unlicensed, freedom
is answered by the bound, enclosed
helplessness and dependence of Christ:
Christ in the womb,
Christ in the Host,
Christ in the tomb."
Caryll Houselander
The Reed of God
"Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this word
which the Lord has brought to pass and revealed to us.
It is the house of bread and it is good for us to be there."
St Bernard of Clairvaux
