In today’s reading, the angel Gabriel appears to Mary and begins to deliver news of the long-awaited savior. Curiously, he begins by honoring Mary, calling her Favored One. Usually in the Bible, if people meet an angel, they get pretty frightened. In this case, it looks like Gabriel was a little nervous to meet Mary! Makes sense, since Gabriel knew who her son is!
