Theme: Faith and obedience of Mary to be followed
1st Reading Micah, chapter 5:1-4a
The prophecy of Micah traces the origin of the Messiah from
an eternal source, through his birth in Bethlehem, to his reign of peace on
earth.
2nd Reading Hebrews, chapter 10:5-10
Jesus replaced the early sacrifice, the sacrifice of
animals, with the sacrifice of his own body, a sacrifice that is pleasing to
God. This was done according to God’s will, which our Lord came to fulfill.
Gospel Reading: Luke, chapter 1:39-45
Mary’s focus and commitment to the goal of bearing the
Messiah earned her the title “Blessed.” If we also trust that the Lord’s words
to us, especially about the coming of the Saviour would be fulfilled, then we
also shall be blessed.
