FORWARD DAY BY DAY

Luke 1:46-47 Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.”
In her appearances to the faithful over the millennia, Mary always comes dressed as a local. At the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth, enormous mosaics from 43 countries honor Our Lady. In each picture, she bears the physical characteristics of the contributing land. My personal favorite is Our Lady of Guadalupe.
When God seeks a closer relationship with humans, God becomes a human. We see God’s great love for us throughout Jesus’ life and ministry. Everyone is welcome, healing is available to all, and hungry people are fed. Presumably, Jesus learns some of this generosity from his mother.
Mary’s Magnificat is not hers alone—it is our song too and meant to be sung in our own hearts. When our spirits magnify God, we join Mary and our ancestors in receiving and proclaiming the blessing promised to God’s people forever.
MOVING FORWARD: How do you proclaim the Lord’s greatness in your own life?p awfulness. How do you reconcile these things about yourself and those you love?
