John 1:1-18; Gal. 3:23-35, 4:4-7
Creation has never been without the light and life of the Word: past, present, and future. In the Prologue to St. John’s Gospel we are invited not to otherworldy speculation but to plumb the depths of the mystery that our whole life, indeed all of creation, finds its past, present, and future in the Word become flesh: none other than Jesus the Messiah. Furthermore, we enter into this mystery not as spectators but as those either rejecting this Word or receiving it, reflecting the glory of God as members of Jesus’ Body.

Luke 1:26-38
If we have been serious in our response to the invitation of Advent to prepare for the Second Coming of Jesus as we prepare to celebrate His First Coming in Christmas, we have likely found that we are not as ready as we could or should be. As we consider the example of Mary, though, we find that it is precisely knowing this need for God’s grace and trusting His love that allows us to welcome Christ into our lives.

Mark 1:1-8
As John the Baptist comes on the scene in fulfillment of God’s plan, he calls Israelites to respond to the joyful message that the Savior is coming by repenting. To repent is simply to change one’s course, and so as we prepare to celebrate Christmas and to greet the return of our Lord Jesus, we too must joyfully make sure that we are walking as closely with Jesus as we can.
