牧者筆記

從基督教節期角度看,今年的三月二十五日是十分特別的日子。天象有所謂九星聯珠,今年的受難日撞正每年三月二十五日的聖母聞報日(Annunciation)。根據教會傳統,聖母聞報日定於紀念耶穌降生十二月二十五日的九個月前。《時代雜誌》(三月二十一日號)也以此為標題,談論近日美國一些基督宗派趁此兩節期的巧合相遇,重申對聖母從前忽略的尊重,拉近跟天主教的距離。


聖母馬利亞是首位也是末位基督的門徒,她是首位門徒,她不單接受耶穌進入心內,她從未見過基督的神蹟奇事,未聽過他帶權柄的教導,單憑著信心跟順服,她接受主耶穌進入懷內,成為首位服從呼召成孕的門徒。另外,她也同時位列耶穌在世末位門徒,在耶穌釘十架時,眾叛親離,馬利亞在場不離不棄,守候耶穌到世最後一刻,作為他最後忠實共苦的伙伴(co-sufferer)。無論耶穌進場或離場,聖母馬利亞始終在場。甚至在使徒行傳一:14,她也跟使徒同列於樓房上,見証聖靈的大能教會的誕生。


我們不用如天主教的兄姊般,接納天主教教廷一八五四年的聖母無原罪和一九五零年的聖母肉身升天等教義;但正如宗教改革之父馬丁路德所言,無論在信德、服從、守候與分擔上,馬利亞的確是信徒的榜樣。在今年的受苦日,讓我們在紀念基督為我們受苦的同時,也能學效十架下的馬利亞,在今世分擔上主的憂患,憑信與主並肩,等候上主對我們的呼喚,並效法馬利亞的回應:「我是主的使女,情願照你的話成就在我身上。」
