Luke 1:46-55The Message
46-55 And Mary said,
I’m bursting with God-news;
I’m dancing the song of my Savior God.
God took one good look at me, and look what happened—
I’m the most fortunate woman on earth!
What God has done for me will never be forgotten,
the God whose very name is holy, set apart from all others.
His mercy flows in wave after wave
on those who are in awe before him.
He bared his arm and showed his strength,
scattered the bluffing braggarts.
He knocked tyrants off their high horses,
pulled victims out of the mud.
The starving poor sat down to a banquet;
the callous rich were left out in the cold.
He embraced his chosen child, Israel;
he remembered and piled on the mercies, piled them high.
It’s exactly what he promised,
beginning with Abraham and right up to now.
In her song, Mary acknowledges her humble state as a servantof God and recognises that from that humble position, God has done great things for her. This reminds us that Christianity is not about exaulting ourselves but rather lifting others up, empowering them to reach their fullest potential. Just as God has been mindful of Mary’s humble state, we, too, must be mindful of these needs, aspirations and challanges.
Mary’s song also emhasises God’s mercy, which extends from generation to generation. As Christians we can lead with compssion & understanding, creating an enviroment where individuals feel valued and supported. Just as God’s mercy is everlasting, we should nurture the growth and wellbeing of those we meet through our journey
