Why Me?

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Listen to the emotions in Mary’s Magnificat, and you’ll find sweet amazement.

Mary: “He has looked on the humble estate of his servant. For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed.”

Nancy: Mary was an ordinary young woman who wondered, Why me?

Yet as she says in her song, “God looked on the humble estate of his servant.” He shook this young girl’s world one day, and everything changed. Her relationship with Jesus gave her life genuine significance.

When you think of yourself and your prospects for making much of a difference in the world, only one thing matters. Having a relationship with the God of heaven makes any life extraordinary. Mary’s experience of amazement can be yours as well when the Lord is with you and within you.
