CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy, AUG. 22, 2010 (Zenit.org).- The Virgin Mary is the “perfect example” of how God honors the humble, and humbles the proud.

I greatly enjoy reading Pope Benedict’s homilies.

We are so blessed to live in this generation of mass communication and the Internet.
 
She is the “Handmaid of the Lord.”
Her soul “Magnifies the Lord.”
When was the last time you called the Virgin Mary “Blessed?”

God Bless.
+Immaculate Heart of Mary, I place all my Trust in You!
Love, Dawn

THE MAGNIFICAT-Luke 1:46-55

My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior;
Because He has regarded the lowliness of His handmaid;
for behold, henceforth all generations shall call me blessed;
Because He who is mighty has done great things for me,
and Holy is His Name;
And His mercy is from generation to generation on those who fear Him.
He has shown might with His arm,
He has scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart.
He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
and has exalted the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has given help to Israel, His servant, mindful of His mercy
Even as He spoke to our fathers -
to Abraham and to his posterity forever.
