^{Sermon From The Feast Of The
Immaculate Conception 2014}
The words from the Sapiential books of the Bible are applied to the Blessed Virgin in the Epistle today.  Even before she was created, the Holy Virgin was in the mind of God and was given all the gifts for her calling.  The greatest of these gifts was the Immaculate Conception.  We too are given all the gifts we need to follow our vocation to sanctity.  About the Blessed Mother, there can ever be enough said.  Our redemption was liberative, but hers was preservative.  She possessed the indwelling of the Holy Trinity from the moment of her creation.  Sanctifying grace makes the inheritance of Heaven our right.  This day we celebrate the triumph over sin.
