Une Minute avec Marie
Faire connaître et aimer Marie
The Advent season is about trusting and waiting like Mary, and with Mary. The liturgical year begins with the fervor of Advent, this joyful expectation of Someone, of the Coming One, Emmanuel, God with us. A God who enters history to experience all its stages and share the anxieties, joys, sorrows, hopes and concerns of men and women of all history and of all mankind.
And that is the novelty of Christianity! God so loved mankind that he became man, like you and me.
Yes, the Advent season makes us expect the divine and joyful childhood, the joy of the Lord who became man, who took on flesh, and embraced the human adventure through the experience of living our everyday life with the simplicity and innocence of a child. He became one of us to give us divine life.
