Week 542–Gospel Reflection– Fr Joshua Whitehead–Saying Yes

Gospel Reflection– Fr Joshua Whitehead–Saying Yes (Fr Joshua says Christmas Eve is a time of preparation, joy, and primarily it's a time of anticipation. Salvation history continues through every single one of the prophets, calling people back to relationship with Jesus, and now it reaches its high point with celebrating Jesus's birth. God chooses to reveal God's own self through an infant, in a vulnerable child. This is the amazing thing, it happens through a human yes, through Mary's saying yes, I will be your servant. Salvation history continues into the here and the now because we're part of this history, we have an opportunity to be part of the biblical story by saying yes ourselves to God, by making God visible through our yes. I'd like to conclude this time of Advent by inviting you to say yes in your heart to the presence of God in your life.)
