Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception
Grace
When Mary was born, she looked very ordinary. She smiled and cried and had to be cuddled in her mother’s arms.
Yet she was full of grace right from the start. She was blest with every spiritual blessings; chosen for a solitary purpose. Through Mary there came an outpouring of grace in the world.
Grace is something we did not merit. It is due to God’s irresistible love. He gives us power when we’re pressured; hope when we’re helpless; forgiveness when we’re failing; new life when we’re lost.
God’s grace has an amazing power to surprise!
