Fr. Mark Mary: 通过对伦勃朗名画《探访》的解读,我看到了玛利亚和伊丽莎白在面对未来不确定性时的内心状态。她们对上帝计划的具体内容并不完全了解,如同画中人物被笼罩在阴影之中,象征着未来充满未知。然而,她们依然选择相信上帝,并从彼此的陪伴中获得慰藉。她们的眼神交流,以及伊丽莎白充满喜悦的笑容,都体现了她们内心的平静与对上帝的信赖。这幅画也反映了我们自身在面对人生困境时的状态,即使前路迷茫,我们依然可以从信仰中获得力量,在光明中找到希望。 在《天使报喜》中,玛利亚和天使都低着头,体现了对神圣计划的敬畏和谦卑。而在《探访》中,玛利亚和伊丽莎白眼神交汇,彼此理解和支持,体现了在面对神秘和未知时,人与人之间的关怀和慰藉。这两种相遇都展现了对上帝计划的接受,即使未来充满不确定性。 伦勃朗运用明暗对比的技巧,将画中人物置于光影交错的环境中,象征着她们对未来计划的不确定性。然而,她们内心的光明,即对上帝的信赖,却透过她们的眼神和表情展现出来。这种光明也照亮了她们之间的相遇,成为她们共同的慰藉。 即使未来充满未知和黑暗,我们依然可以在上帝的恩典中找到慰藉、喜乐和希望。玛利亚和伊丽莎白的经历,以及伦勃朗画作中所展现的光明与黑暗,都提醒我们,在面对人生的挑战时,要保持对上帝的信赖,并从彼此的陪伴中获得力量。

So often, our futures are shrouded in mystery and darkness. It can be hard to see where God’s plan is leading. Fr. Mark-Mary highlights the dynamics of light and darkness in Rembrandt’s painting, The Visitation, revealing two women who may not see every step of God’s plan, but trust in him regardless. Today’s focus is the mystery of the Visitation and we will be praying one decade of the Rosary.

All of the Sacred Art we’ll be meditating with can be found in the Rosary in a Year Prayer Guide, for free linked in the complete prayer plan, or for free in the Ascension App. For the complete prayer plan, visit https://ascensionpress.com/riy).
