Daughtership

The Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Luke 1:39-56

I will focus my reflection on the Visitation of our Lady with the reality of the "daughter".

Stated in the first reading are "Daughter of Zion" and "Daughter of Jerusalem"; they are commended to shout aloud and rejoice; for what?

First, rejoice in the the daughter's relationship with the Father.  

Mary said, "May soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior." Learn to deepen the mystery of our special relationship with the Lord.

Second, being forgiven by Father

"The Almighty had done great things for me"; there is nothing in our human lives which is not formed by the presence of God.  Recognize the Father as the giver of life.

Third, responds in love to the Father

Mary recognized the work of the Father towards the poor and fulfillment of God's promises.  Elizabeth appreciated Mary's prompt service. Let's be faithful to the mission entrusted to us.
