En el cuarto domingo de Adviento, el obispo Edward Weisenburger reflexiona: "Una vez que María reconoce el poder de Dios en su vida, es la persona más libre de la tierra. Tiene la libertad perfecta para decir "SÍ" a Dios - para traer a Dios al mundo - para construir un hogar para Dios en su vientre, el Dios que primero construyó un hogar en este mundo para ella. Sí, es propio de la naturaleza humana que una buena persona quiera hacer algo bueno por Dios. Es una intención noble y amorosa.  Pero para nosotros comienza como lo hizo para el Rey David, la Virgen María y todos los santos de la historia. Comienza cooperando con la iniciativa que ÉL ha puesto dentro de nosotros."

Coopera con la iniciativa de Dios dentro de ti

We are saved by faith, not by sight. Sin disintegrates the human integration of body and soul. Sin teaches us to love the corruption of evil instead of the holiness of God. The Eucharist is the remedy for our sin sick souls. More this week on OVC.

From Lesser To Greater - The Eucharist

The Eucharist and the power of God. "Therefore, that I might not become too elated, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, an angel of Satan, to beat me, to keep me from being too elated.Three times I begged the Lord about this, that it might leave me, but he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me. Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ: for when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Cor. 12:9. Power in our weakness, John 6, this week on OVC.
