SUMMARY:Vigils reading - Immaculate Conception
DESCRIPTION:THE FAVORED ONE \nFrom a commentary by Sophronius of Jerusalem \n◊◊◊ \nHail full of grace\, the Lord is with you. Truly blessed are you among \nwomen\, for you have changed the curse of Eve into a blessing and caused Adam\, \nonce accursed\, to be blessed through you. Truly blessed are you among \nwomen\, for it was through you that the Father’s blessing dawned on humankind \nand freed it from the ancient curse. Truly blessed are you among women\, for \nthrough you your ancestors will be saved\, since you are going to bear the Savior \nwho will gain them God’s salvation. Truly blessed are you among women\, for \nwithout seed you produced the fruit that brings blessing to all the earth\, \nreleasing it from the curse that made it bear thorns. Truly blessed are you \namong women\, for though by nature you are a woman\, you will in very truth \nbecome the mother of God: if he who is to be born of you is truly God incarnate\, \nthen\, since you will be giving birth to God\, you will with perfect justice be called \nthe mother of God. \nDo not be afraid\, Mary\, for you have found favor with God that can \nnever be lost. You have won from God a most glorious favor\, a grace long \ndesired\, a grace of great splendor\, a saving grace\, an unfailing grace\, a grace that \nwill last for ever. Many before you have been holy\, but no one has been as \nfavored as you\, no one as blessed as you\, no one as perfectly sanctified as you\, no \none as highly praised as you. No one else has like you been possessed from the \nfirst by purifying grace\, no one else has been enlightened like you\, or exalted like \nyou\, for no one has approached so close to God as you\, or been enriched with \nsuch divine gifts\, or endowed with such heavenly grace. \nYou surpass all human desire; you surpass all the gifts given by God to the \nwhole human race\, for God’s dwelling within you has made you richer than all \nothers. No one else has been able to contain God as you do; no one else has been \ncapable of receiving God as you have; no one else has deserved to be so \nenlightened by God. And therefore you have not only received God\, the Creator \nand Lord of the universe\, but He has in an unheard-of way taken flesh from you; \nyou bear him in your womb\, and will later give birth to him who will redeem \nhumankind from the Father’s sentence\, and confer on it eternal salvation.
