SUNDAY GOSPEL REFLECTION 

from Vatican Radio

English translation exclusive to this website

On this fourth Sunday of Advent we read from the first chapter of Matthew – the story of Joseph’s dream and his adhesion to the will of God. There are many details in this story. What key should we use for interpreting this text as we get ready to welcome the Lord? The passage begins: “This is how Jesus Christ came to be born.” Then we hear how a girl was with child through the work of the Holy Spirit. It is God who takes the initiative in our lives. So there is this girl who is pregnant through the activity of God and we have this man, Joseph, who is confronted with the situation and must find a solution. He comes up with various possible solutions, more or less noble, but then God again takes the initiative and speaks to his heart through a dream. This dream is an image of the profound interior spiritual life of this man. Joseph is told not to fear. This is how the Lord works. He takes the initiative and speaks to our hearts, helping us to enter into the events of the history of salvation. It is always possible to see the events of our life on two levels: on the purely biological level of cause and effect; or with an openness to the work of God. This dream of Joseph, and the faith in the depths of our hearts, tells us that there is something more, that the providential will of God is operating in things. We always run the risk of looking at things only on the surface, not seeing the invisible, that which is hidden.
