Wonderful Almighty Prince of Peace

Wednesday December 27th, Luke 1: 46 And Mary said: "My soul glorifies the Lord 47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, 48 for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, 49 for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name. 50 His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. 51 He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. In the humility of Mary the manifest glory of God is presented to the world. And the one she will bring into the world shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Almighty God, the Prince of Peace. And what will this Wonderful Almighty Prince of Peace do? Scatter those who are proud in their inmost thoughts in the same manner the proud children of God were scattered at the Tower of Babel. Scattered, not for punishment, not for a display of might, but so they too had a chance to confront the very thing that would keep them from seeing and accepting this Wonderful Almighty Prince of Peace, their pride. When love comes, change happens.
