Day 3 Advent Reflection

…we look to Mary, Mother of Hope. With her “yes,” she opened the door of our world to God. Her maiden’s heart was full of hope, wholly enlivened by faith; thus, God chose her, and she believed in his word.

(~ Pope Francis, “A Light in the Night – Meditations on Hope.” (Jubilee 2025), The Nativity Scene Conveys Hope)

He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
