”My soul magnifies the Lord” [Luke 1:46(RAV)]
December 25
”My soul magnifies the Lord”. Mary’s heart welled up in praise at the events that had overtaken her. God’s goodness and graciousness to her was overwhelming. As her cousin joined her, the two women were able to rejoice together in what God was doing. This should be the lasting sentiment of all our lives once we have yielded them to the Lord. If we could see and know what God was doing with those lives dedicated to Him there is little doubt that we would magnify His Name.
The Lord is worthy to be praised because of Who He is: He deserves all the praise and adoration of our heart for redeeming us from sin at such great cost. For all He is doing through the blessed Holy Spirit Whom the Father has sent we should praise and honour His Matchless Name.
Let Mary’s song of praise be ours today.
