Reflection: Look at the beauty of light in the darkness! Here we have the profound joy of two women, Mary and Elizabeth, embracing each other and the mystery of God's mercy. Elizabeth, filled with awe at the presence of the Messiah in Mary's womb, recognizes God’s tender mercy at work in their lives. Think of the boundless mercy of God, who comes to us in the most humble and unexpected ways. Like Mary and Elizabeth, we are called to share this mercy with one another, preparing our hearts for Jesus. May our own small acts of mercy open us to receive him with joy and gratitude.
