Luke 1

When you’ve got Jesus, He puts a song in your heart, a song you can’t help but sing. It’s a song of gratitude, tuned to the promises of God; its glad tempo transcends life’s hardships, uncertainties and fears. “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.” Luke 1:46-47 (NKJV) So begins Mary’s song, an outpouring of praise shared with her cousin, Elizabeth. Mary’s song – the Magnificat – reflects her strong faith in God’s Word, and sheer amazement and joy at being chosen for His gracious gift of salvation. In that respect, Mary’s song is one for us not merely to enjoy this time of year, but to echo in our daily lives.
