Blessed Be the Name of the Lord

Today will be the second meeting of the Roof Dog team travelling to Arequipa in February. Vicki will attend it while Kimi and I go shopping. What a blessing to be here and to be able to do that this year! What a difference from last year! I understand the Magnificat that Mary proclaimed in a more personal way than ever before. I wouldn't presume to say "all generations will call me blessed," but certainly I can say all my friends will say that I have been blessed by the Lord with this special year. Thank you, Father!

Magnificat Luke 1:46-55

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior;
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
