When facing a future entirely unknown, Mary’s response was simple: she sang.

Mary’s song is more than mere praise; it is the cry of the imagination of her heart. It is the very hope of Christmas and a longing for the day when God’s promises are fulfilled. Mary’s voice, like so many in scripture, is one that is part of the heavenly chorus calling for a world in which those in high places are humbled, and where people on the margins – like Mary herself – are brought to the center.

Beloved, we too can sing. We too, can join the heavenly song.
