Back to EpisodesMeditations for Advent 2024 - Day 9 - The Handmaiden of the Lord and Virtues of the Annunciation
Description
On Day 9 of our Advent meditations, we promise insights into the virtues of faith and obedience as exemplified by Mary, the new Eve. Drawing from the profound teachings of Bishop Jacques Bossuet, we reflect on Mary's acceptance of God's will and her role in the salvation narrative. Her obedience and humility stand as a stark contrast to Eve's disobedience, highlighting the significant part these virtues play in redemption. As we explore the Annunciation, we delve into Mary's holy virginity and profound humility, revealing how her purity and renunciation of worldly pleasures prepared her to be the Mother of God.
