The Magnificat: Mary’s Song of Praise
Luke 1:46
46 Mary responded, “Oh, how my soul praises the Lord.
47 How my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
48 For he took notice of his lowly servant girl,
and from now on all generations will call me blessed.
49 For the Mighty One is holy,
and he has done great things for me.
50 He shows mercy from generation to generation
to all who fear him.
51 His mighty arm has done tremendous things!
He has scattered the proud and haughty ones.
52 He has brought down princes from their thrones
and exalted the humble.
53 He has filled the hungry with good things
and sent the rich away with empty hands.
54 He has helped his servant Israel
and remembered to be merciful.
55 For he made this promise to our ancestors,
to Abraham and his children forever.”

My souls sings.
Worship is an act between my Father, and I. He created me, who He calls lovely, beautiful, holder of grace, and treasure keeper; and I worship him for making this glorious creation. All around me there are signs of his splendor and all round me there are miracles because of what he's done. And I worship Him. He is everywhere, and He can withstand anything. No trial can tear Him down, no circumstance stomps in His way. He shelters and protects me from the work of the evil one and pours light into my dark dreadful flesh. You see, I am nothing without my beloved. I am His bride, and He is my bridegroom. And we, being wed, are One. Nothing will ever be able to separate His love from me. Him and I will dance to breathtaking music that bursts through my soul. I long to please the Lord, in all I do, in all I say, in all I think, in all I act. He takes off the cap and allows a breakthrough to be nurtured and restored. I love my God. I love my Maker. Oh God, you know my heart. He has seen all the dark and hidden secrets that have been kept locked. He knows all. I can never hide from Him, for I know that He sees me. He has seen me even when I think that no one is looking. I worship you my Jesus. You are alive in ME. I love you for who this Word says you are. Fully capable. Sufficient. All Consuming. Tenderly corrective. Just, righteous, and giver of grace and wisdom, and mercy. Humble King, Matchless Lord. You are my desire, and my soul sings to you. My whole life I live to PLEASE YOUR NAME. For your name I will go places my flesh does not want. For your name I will do whatever you ask of me. For YOUR name, oh God, you will be pleased. Dear Jesus, that you would find your child on her knees, breaking for your heart to be broken over her. Pour your oil of gladness over her; she is parched. I worship you my Creator. Your love is majestic, and I worship you. I worship you with my life. I want everything to please you, and praise YOUR name. Your name be lifted up and glorified. YOUR name be in me the better part. Oh Lord, that my soul would BURN for you, and your kingdom. That my eyes would be set on your faithful, kind, loving eyes. Holy spirit, my comforter, my perfect gentleman; make straight paths before me. I set my face as a flint to you oh God. I love you.
