Luke 1:46 And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. (ESV)
When we consider the context of this verse, it is sometimes hard to believe Mary had such a wonderful response to God. She was in a very precarious situation, but she trusted her Savior. I can't imagine what all was going on in her mind as she pondered Gabriel's announcement.
But for us, this verse causes us to stop an consider our predicament or situation we find ourselves in. Are we magnifying the Lord, remembering He is our Savior? If not, we should be. We can't let our situations dictate our response to God. We need to be like this young girl in the Scriptures rejoicing in our Savior, as we magnify Him.
