Talmud (Sanh. 98a) — humbling the haughty in Messianic days
David praised God for saving the humble and humbling the proud. Mary echoed the same theme — God brings down the powerful and lifts up the lowly.
Savior, open my eyes to the people around me. As You fulfilled 2 Samuel 22:28 in Luke 1:52, make me faithful in small acts of love.
