To be holy and without blemish before him

December 8, 2017 6:00 am

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him.” (EPH 1: 3-4)  

We were chosen “before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him,” and Our Lady is an example of this. We will follow Her, because God the Father “blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens.” Our Lady will do everything to help us “to be holy.” 

“Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women.” (Gospel Acclamation)
