Det \u00e4r n\u00e5got s\u00e4rskilt med advent; ljusstakarna lyser i f\u00f6nstren, m\u00f6rkret utanf\u00f6r blir lite mindre hotfullt, och vi b\u00f6rjar r\u00e4kna ner dagarna till jul.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Men advent \u00e4r mer \u00e4n en nedr\u00e4kning \u2013 det \u00e4r en tid av v\u00e4ntan. Och mitt i den v\u00e4ntan m\u00f6ter vi Maria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Om vi backar drygt 9 m\u00e5nader s\u00e5 var det Maria beb\u00e5delsedag. Maria f\u00e5r veta att hon blivit utsedd att f\u00f6da den h\u00f6gstes barn; Messias, den som folket v\u00e4ntar p\u00e5. R\u00e4ddaren och befriaren av Guds eget folk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Men hon f\u00e5r inte veta genom sedvanligt graviditetstest, utan genom ett bes\u00f6k av en \u00e4ngel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jag hade nog f\u00e5tt skr\u00e4mselhicka av det. B\u00e5de av \u00e4nglabes\u00f6ket och uppdraget i sig. F\u00f6r det var \u2013 och \u00e4r – stort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Men Maria sa ja. <\/strong>
Hennes ja \u00e4r inte naivt \u2013 det \u00e4r ett uttryck f\u00f6r f\u00f6rtroende och mod. Hon riskerar sitt rykte, sin trygghet och kanske sitt liv, men v\u00e4ljer att lita p\u00e5 Gud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Och vi kan ocks\u00e5 p\u00e5 olika s\u00e4tt s\u00e4ga ja, det vill s\u00e4ga till att b\u00e4ra fram det glada budskapet; evangeliet om Jesus. Oavsett vem vi \u00e4r eller varifr\u00e5n vi kommer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria p\u00e5minner oss om att Gud ofta v\u00e4ljer det lilla och \u00f6dmjuka f\u00f6r att utf\u00f6ra stora ting. Hennes liv \u00e4r en inbjudan till oss att v\u00e5ga lita p\u00e5 Gud \u2013 \u00e4ven n\u00e4r vi inte ser hela bilden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Att lita p\u00e5 Gud betyder inte att vi f\u00e5r alla svar direkt eller att livet blir problemfritt. Det handlar om att v\u00e5ga tro att Gud \u00e4r med, \u00e4ven n\u00e4r v\u00e4gen \u00e4r oklar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kanske \u00e4r det just detta advent vill l\u00e4ra oss: att v\u00e5ga lita p\u00e5 Gud, \u00e4ven n\u00e4r vi inte ser hela bilden. Att \u00f6ppna v\u00e5ra hj\u00e4rtan f\u00f6r honom som kommer \u2013 som barnet i krubban och som v\u00e4rldens ljus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
