Singing the Magnificent Humble Song (Luke 1:39-56)

When Scripture opens we are told that the Lord created this world good. We read of the adversary, Satan, who enters the garden of Eden. He wants to challenge whether or not God created this world good. Satan is arrogant, Satan thinks that he can humble the great God of heaven, and he tempts Adam and Eve to sin. Adam and Eve sin joining this Satanic community. They soon discover that God will not be humbled, man will not be worshipped, and man's exaltation is only found as man submits to God. This is the very theme that Mary celebrates.
