2 Chronicles 14:1-15:19; Ezekiel 36:16-38; John 14:15-31
And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. Luke 1:46-47
But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19
Magnifying and meditating. Praising and pondering. What great occupations the worshipper can engage in! God’s beloved Son was the focus of Mary’s occupation. The words “God my Saviour”, are unique to her. She humbly owns Him to be her Lord and Saviour. The angel’s message, the heavenly host and the visit of the shepherds, all left deep impressions upon her heart. May each aspect of our Lord’s life bring precious thoughts of Him to our hearts today,
and cause our worship to overflow! —Pete Smith
Thy name we love, Lord Jesus; and lowly bow before Thee;
And while we live, to Thee we give, all blessing, worship, glory.—W. Yerbury
