My church on Sunday has brought up a very interesting topic, it’s about Mary. About Mary’s role in this festive season: she as a teenager was already given a holy role of being a mom, but a virgin mom and risking her marriage to Joseph and she says Yes to the angels of willing to take up the role. And throughout her life, she has to go through lots unusual situation such as Jesus’ amazing caliber and intelligence who actually is against the norm, and when she witness her only dearest soon Jesus died on the cross, and then she saw Him resurrects. All these are absolutely not ordinary passages anyone would go through, but she still chooses to believe, persist and persevere. Mary is just like anyone of us, not the most intelligent, not the best looking, not the wealthiest, just the mediocre and ordinary. But God chooses us to be his tool, Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord”. That means she is the tool to demonstrate the existence of something: the existence of God. We too could magnify God, we can make the fact that God exists be more obvious, more noticeable and larger in those who don’t see Him.
