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
Statue of Mary with Child, Spain
“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
