Today is the “Feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary”. It is a feast to celebrate the coming of the Angel Gabriel to Mary when, at her _fiat_, the Word took on flesh and became man in her womb.

We may be natural children of Eve but Mary can be our spiritual mother. Natural death is no longer the only inheritance, as a child of Mary, we can share in the life of her Son.
