This is the fourth Sunday in Advent, and our theme for the season is “Messages of Hope,” during which we are hearing some messages from the ancient prophets. Today’s scripture is the passage from Luke wherein a pregnant Mary goes to visit Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist. Mary’s response to Elizabeth is what has come to be known as “The Magnificat,” based on the first words of her praise, “My soul magnifies the Lord!” The text of her praise/prayer is the prophetic message for today’s message of hope. Prophecy is not so much predicting the future, but telling the truth about the present, and Mary’s message is that God is in the midst of turning things upside down with this baby in her womb. Of course, when the baby was later born, Mary (and Joseph) had all the responsibilities of parents of the infant and then as a child. As he grew up she had to let him go and saw him become a controversial figure, and then she suffered through his trials and crucifixion. After that, she was among the people gathered in that room when the Holy Spirit filled those believers at Pentecost. To follow Mary’s example, we have to let Jesus “grow up,” and we must have the faith and courage to follow Jesus wherever he leads.
