Deacon Bill’s Gospel Reflection  for the 4th Sunday in Advent (Year B):

However unworthy we may be, Jesus invites us every year to his birthday feast, for “nothing is impossible for God.” Each year he challenges us, like Mary to say ‘yes’ to accept the role God has designed for each of us in life. Like Mary, if we believe and obey his word, we can also make Christ present within us, and through us his light can illuminate the world.
