At times, when we face challenges and difficulties, we may end up asking: Where is God in all of this? Where is God in our lives, and where is He in this world? And we can either trust that He knows what He is doing or end up frustrated, angry, and disappointed. But if we keep our faith and trust in God, then one day we will be as happy, blessed, and joyful like Mary was. When the Angel Gabriel came to her and announced God’s plan for her and her child, she was confused, she didn’t understand, and she didn’t know -- why her? But she trusted and kept faith even though she knew it wouldn’t be easy. She said ‘yes’ and never doubted again. And today in the Gospel she is praising God in this profound and beautiful hymn of thanksgiving. She finally understood why and how blessed she was. “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior, for he has looked upon his lowly servant.”
