Luke 1, 46-56
Mary said, “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour, for he has looked upon the humiliation of his handmaid. From now on all generations will rejoice over me, for the Mighty One has done great deeds for me”.
Mary’s song is strength, joy, wonder, prayer, thanksgiving, adoration, praise … Mary’s song is a reflection of Mary’s own life. It is a reflection of how Mary feels loved and blessed by God.
It is worth rereading this song once more. To interiorise it. Let each of its words enter our hearts. To notice the littleness, simplicity and neatness of Mary’s heart. To see how far God’s action in us can reach when we place ourselves unconditionally in her hands.
It is worthwhile to open ourselves to his will, to his presence, to his Word and let him work wonders in us.
Bless God like Mary and be grateful for his presence in your life and in the life of every human being.
Good day to you.
