  And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me-holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever, just as he promised our ancestors.” Luke 1:46-55 NIV

What wonderful words from the woman who was to bear the Son of God!

Have you noticed how deeply touched the soul and spirit are when we praise and glorify God? I cannot say that I have ever failed to be moved when I praise the Lord or glorify His name. Feeling deeply touched by God goes hand in hand with glorifying and praising Him!

The Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are always mindful of a humble servant. Remember Christ tells us that one who exalts himself shall be humbled while he who humbles himself shall be exalted. We must remember that it is all about Christ, not us! He is the one who saves, not us! He provides all that we need.

Although all nations may not call each of us believers blessed, we know that we are truly blessed, for God Almighty has done great deeds for us! His name is truly Holy, now and forever more! God’s mercy is limitless and extends throughout eternity to all those who believe in Him. We must always remember the mercy the Lord has for us. We truly do not deserve the mercy He shows, yet He showers us with it!

God watches over and take care of the lowly, while those who are proud in their thoughts He has sent away empty.

God keeps all His promises. Not one promise that God has made will go unanswered!
