THE MIRACLE OF CHRISTMAS

12/15/2021

0 Comments

 
 The angel Gabriel had told Mary that she would be the mother of the Messiah, and in contrast to John the Baptist's father, Zechariah who at first did not believe the angel's message to him, Mary's later response was a magnificent song of praise to God.

"My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour, for He has looked with favour on the lowliness of His servant. Surely from now all generations will call me blessed for the Mighty One has done great things for me and holy is His name.

"His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation. He has shown strength with His arm; He has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts. He has brought down the powerful from their thrones and lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away empty.

"He has helped His servant Israel in remembrance of His mercy according to the promises He made to our ancestors, to Abraham and to his descendants forever."

    I have always loved telling Bible stories, especially those from the Old Testament. For the past 25 years I have been teaching Religious Education in the local State School.  Each time I revisit these stories, I still find there's something more for me to learn. That's what I find so refreshing about the bible.
