Christmas
2015
Out
of
the
depths
of
eternity,
moving
through
the
silence
of
Gods
mystery,
a
Divine
gesture
went
forth
across
an
unfathomable
chasm
into
the
realm
of
space
and
time.
It
reached
into
the
stillness
of
a
young
girls
life.
There
it
would
overshadow
her
with
the
Holy
Spirit,
this
Mary
of
Nazareth.
And
with
that
eternal
gesture
would
come
a
whisper
and
a
Word;
a
Word
spoken
previously
but
only
to
prophets.
But
this
exchange
would
be
different.
No
longer
would
that
Word
come
merely
issuing
hints
and
clues.
This
time
it
bore
a
message
more
direct
yet
breathing
an
atmosphere
uncovering
the
humility
of
God.
Not
with
Divine
thunder
did
it
resonate
but
with
an
almost
shy
request:
Mary,
will
you
be
the
mother
of
my
Son?
And
she,
with
a
great
sense
of
faith
that
translates
into
the
depths
of
surrender
answered,
Be
it
done
to
me
according
to
your
Word.
From
that
moment
something
extraordinary
happened.
The
Word
spoken
to
her
did
not
lose
its
power,
did
not
slip
into
the
darkness
where
other
people
and
events
become
forgotten.
It
became
shockingly
real
and
concrete.
No
one
had
ever
listened
like
this.
The
living
Word
of
God
became
alive
in
a
totally
new
way.
It
became
housed
and
nourished
with
the
confines
of
a
mothers
love
and
saturated
by
her
faith.
Her
yes
had
set
in
motion
something
never
grasped
before.
The
Word
of
God,
ever
heard
but
never
seen,
would
become
visible.
Born
a
man,
he
would
challenge
the
world
with
the
power
he
would
exhibit,
but
also
with
his
equally
shocking
amount
of
ordinariness.
He
would
stretch
the
human
mind
to
reach
out
to
the
mystery
of
Divine
humility
that
could
stoop
so
low
as
to
become
human.
Even
to
become
a
baby.
