The Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary
First reading – Zephaniah 3:14-18
Today we are celebrating the feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary to Zechariah and Elizabeth. This feast is about the presence of Virgin Mary who conceived the Word in the midst of us. In Mary, the God is present. That is what the Prophet Zephaniah is saying, “The Lord, the king of Israel, is in your midst;
you have no more evil to fear”. Not only that he continues, that the Lord our God is in our midst, a victorious warrior. The Lord exult with joy over you and will renew you by his love. How beautiful is that! The Visitation of Blessed Virgin Mary is the feast that reminds us that God is in our midst and we have no more evil to fear. It’s feast that reminds us about the presence of God in our midst. His love will renew us. His love will be our joy. Let’s reflect: How much I can related the feast of Mother Mary to the presence of God in our midst?
