Today's meditation: The Word assumed human nature from Mary

The Word of God, as the Apostle says, "takes care of Abraham's race. Therefore he had to make himself similar in all things to his brothers "(Heb 2,16.17) and take a body similar to ours. This is why Mary had her existence in the world, so that Christ would take this body from her and offer it, as hers, for us.
Therefore when the Scripture speaks of the birth of Christ it says: "He wrapped it in swaddling clothes" (Lk 2,7). This is why the breast from which he took the milk was said to be blessed. When the mother gave birth to the Savior he was offered as a sacrifice.
Gabriele had given the announcement to Maria with caution and delicacy. But the one who will be born in you did not simply tell her, so that one did not think of a foreign body to her, but: from you (cf. Lk 1,35:XNUMX), because it was known that he who gave to the world originated from her .
The Word, taking on what was ours, offered it in sacrifice and destroyed it with death. Then he clothed us with his condition, according to what the Apostle says: This corruptible body must put on incorruptibility and this mortal body must put on immortality (cf. 1 Cor 15,53:XNUMX).
However, this is certainly not a myth, as some are saying. Far be it from us such a thought. Our Savior was truly a man and from this came the salvation of all humanity. In no way can our salvation be called fictitious. He saved the whole man, body and soul. Salvation took place in the same Word.
According to the Scriptures, the nature that was born of Mary was truly human and real, that is, human, was the body of the Lord; true, because completely identical to ours; in fact Mary is our sister since we all originate in Adam.
What we read in John "the Word became flesh" (Jn 1,14:XNUMX) therefore has this meaning, since it is interpreted as other similar words.
In fact, it is written in Paul: Christ became a curse for us (cf. Gal 3,13:XNUMX). Man in this intimate union of the Word received enormous wealth: from the condition of mortality he became immortal; while he was tied to physical life, he became a participant of the Spirit; even if made of earth, it has entered the kingdom of heaven.
Although the Word took a mortal body from Mary, the Trinity remained in itself what it was, without any sort of additions or subtractions. Absolute perfection remained: Trinity and the only divinity. And so in the Church only one God is proclaimed in the Father and in the Word.
