This reflection highlights Mary’s remarkable response to an overwhelming calling. Faced with uncertainty, risk, and a future she couldn’t predict, she chose to sing — not because her circumstances were easy, but because her confidence was in God’s character. The Magnificat echoes Hannah’s ancient song, celebrating the God who lifts the humble and fills the hungry. Advent joy isn’t surface-level or sentimental; it’s a deep, steady trust in the One who sees us, chooses us, and holds every unknown. Like Mary, we can rejoice not because we know the outcome, but because we know the God who does.
