Isn't it on March 25 that we celebrate the Annunciation? I think of the humble beginnings with Mary, no older than 15/16, accepting to do WHAT GOD WILLED HER TO DO. Could you just think about the disgrace she had to go through. Joseph almost divorced her. (back then divorce was even if only betrothed) You are right Bill, Easter would never be if Christmas didn't happen. How blessed we all are. Jesus had to die because the first sin was just so severe. A human rejecting the Will of God "DO NOT EAT FROM THIS ONE TREE". In order to become right with God, we needed a supreme being to repent for that sin. Makes a lot of sense to me. Those 33 years, He gave us the sacraments, the beatitudes, and actually showed us how to pray and He gave us the Catholic Faith. We would we be today without all of that? <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9195463428231807868.post-62026622817965680332015-04-02T20:57:50.668-04:002015-04-02T20:57:50.668-04:00exactly my own reflection!! :-)exactly my own reflection!! :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13104239789635434350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9195463428231807868.post-31244141372628940392015-04-01T09:41:02.687-04:002015-04-01T09:41:02.687-04:00Hmm, an interesting take on Easter & Christmas...Hmm, an interesting take on Easter & ChristmasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
