“Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary - Painting by Dino Carbetta” …

The celebration of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary holds profound significance in the tapestry of the Christian faith. This cherished observance bears witness to the reverence and devotion accorded to Mary, the Mother of Jesus, throughout the ages. The choice of September 8th for Mary's birth played a pivotal role in establishing the feast of the Immaculate Conception on December 8th. Although the pages of Scripture do not provide a detailed account of Mary's birth, the Gospel of James fills this narrative gap. It serves as a testament to the evolving piety of Christianity. According to this ancient account, Anna and Joachim, Mary's parents, were unable to conceive a child but fervently prayed for one. Their prayers were answered with the promise of a child who would play a vital role in God's plan for the salvation of humanity. This narrative, echoing biblical parallels, underscores the divine presence in Mary's life from its very inception. Saint Augustine poetically describes her as "the flower of the field from whom bloomed the precious lily of the valley," emphasizing the transformative nature of her birth on the human condition of love between two individuals becoming a partnership with God. These loving parents embody hope in a world often beset by trials, and the newborn child symbolizes the potential to be a conduit of God's love and peace to all. Mary magnificently embodies this truth. If Jesus represents the perfect embodiment of God's love, Mary foreshadows that love. Next to the birth of Jesus, Mary's birth radiates the greatest possible happiness into the world. In this significant image, we witness the transcendent and Apparitional portrayal of Jesus, accompanied by Saints Anne and Joachim, embracing the birth of the Virgin Mary. It is a visual testament to the profound significance of this occasion, offering inspiration and hope to all who contemplate it.
