Father Luke reflects on how the Blessed Mother’s Magnificat is deeply rooted in Scripture, from the prayer of Hannah to the prophecies of Israel. Mary’s heart, filled and shaped by God’s Word, shows us how to pray, ponder, and prepare for the coming of the Savior. As we approach Christmas, Father Luke invites us to let her prayer inspire our own, so that, like Mary, we can be ready to welcome Jesus into our hearts.
