 THE MAGNIFICAT OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

marymagnificat.jpg


My soul now glorifies
The Lord who is my Saviour.
Rejoice! For who am I
That God has shown me favour?

The world shall call me blessed
And ponder on my story;
In me is manifest
God’s greatness and His glory.

For those who are His friends
And keep His laws most holy,
His mercy never ends;
And He exalts the lowly.

But by His power the great—
The proud, the self-conceited,
The kings who sit in state—
Are humbled and defeated.

He fills the starving poor,
He guards His holy nation,
Fulfilling what He swore
Long since in revelation.

Then glorify with me
The Lord who is my Saviour,
One Holy Trinity,
Forever and forever.

Amen.

The Virtue of Chastity: Lessons from the Life of Mary

MARY AS A MODEL OF CHASTITY The first Evangelical virtue we see in Mary is chastity .

Among all virtues, chastity is often considered one of the most challenging to live faithfully. St. Augustine described it as one of the daily battles of the Christian life. Yet God, in His goodness, has given us in Mary a perfect model of this virtue. The word chastity can feel uncomfortable in today’s culture and is rarely discussed outside religious settings. Modern media frequently promotes immodesty in dress and behavior, and young people are often exposed to messages that distort the meaning of human dignity and sexuality. This raises an important question for parents: how can we teach our children the value of chastity, and why does it matter so much? Teaching this virtue begins by examining our own lives. Parents serve as the first example for their children. Do we strive ...
