Mary's Song of Praise

In Luke 1:26-56, this portion is known as the Magnificat.  It is Mary's Song of Praise.  The Holy Spirit comes upon Mary and here she reveals some of the characteristics of God and Jesus Christ.  God is mindful of man and Holy is the Lord's name.  His mercy extends to those who fear Him from generation to generation.  He has performed mighty deeds with His holy arm.  He will scatter the proud in their innermost thoughts.  He brings down rulers from their thrones and He lifts up the humble.  He fills the hungry with good things and will send the rich away empty.  He remembers Israel and is merciful.  Your promises today are:  Psalm 42:5, Rom 4:18, 8:23-25, 15:3, 1 Cor 13:13, Eph 2:12 and Col 1:27.  Your Insightful Sayings are:  Forgiveness is free.  Trust must be earned.  Love so well that you will never lack friends.
