Fr. Mark Mary: 今天我们结束了对圣约瑟夫的关注，他陪伴耶稣和玛利亚的时光也告一段落。福音书中最后一次提到圣约瑟夫是在耶稣十二岁在圣殿被寻回的故事中。虽然圣约瑟夫在场，但这是他最后一次出现在这些奥迹中。我认为，在耶稣受洗之前，圣约瑟夫已经去世。通过这个时间线，我们可以看到天父对圣母玛利亚的持续关怀。天父总是确保她有人陪伴和照顾。耶稣从一个无法提供保护和供应的男孩成长为一个男人，承担起照顾母亲的责任。圣约瑟夫的角色逐渐过渡到耶稣身上，这体现了天父对玛利亚的忠诚和永不放弃的爱。在迦拿婚宴中，玛利亚的行为暗示她明白耶稣即将开始他的公开传道，并自由地解除他对自己的责任，将他献给世界。这个转变也表明了玛利亚对即将到来的苦难的接受，但她始终没有被天父抛弃。 Fr. Mark Mary: 我相信我们可以通过祈祷看到，有一个时刻，约瑟夫从一家之主变成了耶稣成为一家之主。马利亚在圣约瑟夫的照顾中体验到了一种人间的安全。上帝派遣圣约瑟夫陪伴和照顾她。圣约瑟夫将从今生逝去，这个角色被传递给了她的儿子耶稣。我很感动地想到耶稣如何忠实地接受了这个使命。他会多么忠实地爱马利亚，照顾她，帮助供养他的母亲，并在需要时保护她。他会对这个责任和义务多么投入。马利亚多么高兴地接受这份礼物。这再次表明了天父的忠诚，他看到了她，永不抛弃她。这种解读可能有些精神化，但我认为这有助于我们更好地理解迦拿婚宴。马利亚来到耶稣面前，告诉他他们没有酒了，这导致他行了第一个公开的神迹，开始了公开的传道，这不仅导致了十字架，而且也导致了他们关系中一个非常明显和真实的变化。马利亚的行为仿佛在说：“我知道这个神迹意味着什么。我知道你已经把与我同在作为你的责任，成为我平安、喜乐、保护和服从天父和圣约瑟夫旨意的源泉。但我正在自由地解除你的责任。马利亚自由地放弃了她对你的权利。我把它们献给世界。” Fr. Mark Mary: 圣约瑟夫是天父关怀马利亚的象征。当他的尘世生命结束时，这个使命将交给耶稣。马利亚总是受到如此细致的爱和关怀。我相信我们可以看到这种尘世的、人间的安全和保护在迦拿被自由地放弃了，因为马利亚把耶稣献给了世界。她自由地让自己容易遭受她很快就要忍受的痛苦。即使在那里，她也从未被抛弃。她没有被天父抛弃。让我们赞美上帝对马利亚的关爱。让我们赞美他心中所揭示的善良。

Shownotes Transcript

Concluding our focus on St. Joseph, we reflect on the quiet but powerful transition of Mary’s care from St. Joseph to Jesus in the Holy Family. God's constant provision for Mary is evident as we see how Jesus steps into his role as protector and provider for his mother. The reflection is anchored in a 17th-century painting of The Finding in the Temple, located at St. Nicholas Church in Brussels. Fr. Mark-Mary reminds us that even when God's plan requires letting go, His attentive love never leaves us abandoned. Today’s focus is the mystery of the Finding of Jesus in the Temple and we will be praying one decade of the Rosary.
