In this image, Mary is present before the Archangel Gabriel, caught in the moment that is being revealed to her that she will bear and bring the Christ-child, Emmanuel, God with Us, into the world. What a moment! Below is a quote from Fr. Thomas Merton, writer and monk, which captures the immensity of that moment, for Mary and for us:
�The Annunciation was not so much a vision as an earthquake in which God moved the universe and unsettled the spheres, and the beginning and end of all things came before her in her deepest heart.
And far beneath the movement of this silent cataclysm Mary slept in the infinite tranquility of God, and God was a child curled up who slept in her and her veins were flooded with His wisdom which is night, which is starlight, which is silence.
And her whole being was embraced in Him whom she embraced and they became tremendous silence.�
�Thomas Merton
Her Feast day is March 25.
