    “Then Mary said, ‘My soul magnifies the LORD…’” -Luke 1:46 All that Mary does perfectly gives glory to God. By entrusting all that we are and all that we have to Jesus in Mary, we can be sure that she uses all we offer to glorify God in the greatest possible way- much outside our own ability.

    I parked outside of Planned Parenthood at 7:45am one morning to find only one staff member in the parking lot. She was clapping to worship music, crying, and saying “thank you Lord” over and over. I approached her later when she was exiting her vehicle and said, “I heard you praying and singing. Why are you here?” She told me she has to make money, but I shared with here that there is a ministry (AbortionWorker.com) to help her get a new job ran by other people who have left the abortion industry. I made it clear that she does not have to keep being part of the death that happens there.
