What does Mary mean when she proclaims, “My soul magnifies the Lord”? Brother Albert reflects that, just as a magnifying glass does not make something greater but helps us see it more clearly, Mary does not make God greater. Instead, through her faith, trust and surrender, she allows God’s greatness to become more visible through her life.Like Mary, we face uncertainty, worries and struggles. Yet we must be mindful of what we choose to magnify. When we magnify our problems, fears and failures, they can overshadow our awareness of God’s presence.Mary reminds us to magnify God, not our fears. When we choose prayer, trust, love, and service, God's goodness shines through our lives. May Our Mother of Perpetual Help lead us closer to Jesus, so that we too can proclaim: "My soul magnifies the Lord."-Saturday Novena Devotion by Br. Albert Khoo, C.Ss.R. (18 July 2026)
