First Week of Advent: Waiting with Joy<\/strong><\/p>\n

For most of us, waiting is hard. Whether we are late for work at a long traffic light; waiting for a loved one to get well; waiting for a call back for new job or whatever process we find ourselves in, it can be painful, not joyful.<\/p>\n

So many processes of life require patient waiting.\u00a0 Once I asked my dad how he was so patient while waiting for mom to talk to all her friends after Sunday mass and her reminded me of the fact that the Latin root of patience is patio, to suffer. Waiting often requires virtuous detachment from our own will and control and accepting God\u2019s will and timing as part of His loving providence in every circumstance.<\/p>\n

Waiting can also be a spiritually purifying experience so in this time that we prepare for Christ\u2019s coming, Mary is \u00a0a source of strength in our trials of patient endurance. Mary must have been astounded after the Annunciation! She had eagerly and prayerfully waited for the coming of the messiah and now, she herself is mother of that Savior.<\/p>\n

The song \u201cBreath of Heaven\u201d by Amy Grant is about Mary\u2019s journey to Bethlehem proposing she may have been \u201cfrightened by the load\u201d and wondered \u201cif a wiser one should have had my place.\u201d But in prayer for strength to the Holy Spirit she simply offers \u201call I am to the mercy of your plan.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mary\u2019s world was one of faith, listening and docility to the Word of God. Perhaps she meditated on the words of Jeremiah\u201d The days are coming, says the Lord when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel.\u201d (Jer 33) Or, \u201cYou are God my savior, and for you, I wait all day\u201d (Ps 25:4).<\/p>\n

Therefore the words of the Angel Gabriel \u201cNothing is impossible for God\u201dtook root deeply in her soul, therefore all her waiting was transformed by her purposeful and intentional living and waiting in God\u2019s presence. Kairos, or God\u2019s time of grace reigned more than Chronos or quantitative time. \u00a0\u201cEmbracing God\u2019s salvific will with a full heart and impeded by no sin, she devoted herself totally as a handmaid of the Lord to the person and work of her Son, serving the mystery of redemption. (Lumen Gentium, no. 56)\u201d<\/p>\n

Mary\u2019s waiting was not in vain or fretful, but fruitful. Immediately after the Angel told her of her cousin\u2019s pregnancy, she went with joyful missionary spirit to care for Elizabeth. \u00a0We can imagine her willingly taking on all of her daily chores and weaving the swaddling bands that would wrap Jesus on his arrival.\u00a0 Her intentionality to whatever the Father asked each day gave meaning to all hours of waiting for Jesus\u2019 coming.<\/p>\n

Waiting can be grueling and we all have our default mechanisms that take us away from the joyful waiting on the Lord. Mary waited with her spirit nourished on the truth that \u201cGod makes all things beautiful in its time\u201d<\/p>\n

Mary, be with me in my joyful waiting for the coming of Jesus once again into my heart.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
