Music has the profound ability to inspire us to move beyond our current circumstances. In the midst of a confusing and new situation, Mary reveals the strength of her devotion and faithfulness in song. Scholars have come to refer to her song as the Magnificat and serves as an example of the character of Mary as the “God Bearer.” We too have the opportunity to sing in ways that move us beyond our circumstances. In the midst of violence and rumors of war, we sing songs of peace and we hope that those songs make their way into reality.
