Two women

Luke 1:39-56

v42-45:

1. a young woman who is destined to be an unwed mother
2. an old woman, past the age of child bearing, becoming a mother

This passage is the meeting of these two women.

We should be a support to people. When people visit us, our question is “Is your return ticket booked?” It is a picture of inconvenience. But Elizabeth accommodates and supports Mary and gives her strength. Similarly, if not for Ananias, Saul would not have become the Paul that we know.

Both these women understood the wonders God was gonna bring in their lives. We are great powers to God. If we give ourselves to God, He can create wonders. We may show compassion to others, but we don’t spend time to show them the right way to choose.

v52,53: There is no place of murmuring to the lips giving praise. This can be seen as a doctrine.

1. A social revolution – puts humble people in places of power.
2. An economic revolution – sends rich away with nothing.
3. gives food to the hungry.
   

This reminds us to look back into our lives and see if we will be subjected to these revolutions. Cinema paints the truth in an untrue manner and people are ready to take it. But the Bible makes people see the truth that is going to come. But people fail to see it. Mary praises God even before what God promised comes true. This shows her faith in her God.
