Subject: [TAC] Daily Excerpt for September 08 2006 Date: September 6, 2006 06:44 pm Today's excerpt is from St. Andrew of Crete: "This radiant and manifest coming of God to men most certainly needed a joyful prelude to introduce the great gift of salvation to us. The present festival, the birth of the Mother of God, is the prelude, while the final act is the fore-ordained union of the Word with flesh. Today the Virgin is born, tended and formed and prepared for her role as Mother of God, who is the universal King of the ages...Therefore, let all creation sing and dance and unite to make worthy contribution to the celebration of this day. Let there be one common festival for saints in heaven and men on earth. Let everything, mundane things and those above, join in festive celebration. Today this created world is raised to the dignity of a holy place for him who made all things. The creature is newly prepared to be a divine dwelling place for the Creator." (From a discourse [Office of Readings on the Feast of the Birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary]) God Bless. Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us!
