Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Eternal Father, You inspired the Virgin Mary, mother of Your Son, to visit Elizabeth and assist her in her time of need. Keep us open to the working of Your Spirit, and with Mary may we praise You forever. Amen.

Luke 1:39-56

Mary set out
and traveled to the hill country in haste
to a town of Judah,
where she entered the house of Zechariah
and greeted Elizabeth.
When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting,
the infant leaped in her womb,
and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit,
cried out in a loud voice and said,
“Most blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
And how does this happen to me,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears,
the infant in my womb leaped for joy.
Blessed are you who believed
that what was spoken to you by the Lord
would be fulfilled.”

And Mary said:
“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.

He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever.”

Mary remained with her about three months
and then returned to her home.

Audio de la oración diaira leída por el p. Uribe, O.M.I.

Señor, nuestras vidas están llenas de momentos de alegría y de dolor, de éxito y de fracaso, de triunfo y de tragedia. Ayúdanos a creer, a través de todos los momentos de nuestra vida, que Tú siempre estás con nosotros, y que nunca estamos solos. Amén.

Lc 1, 39-56
En aquellos días, María se encaminó presurosa a un pueblo de las montañas de Judea y, entrando en la casa de Zacarías, saludó a Isabel. En cuanto ésta oyó el saludo de María, la creatura saltó en su seno.
Entonces Isabel quedó llena del Espíritu Santo, y levantando la voz, exclamó: “¡Bendita tú entre las mujeres y bendito el fruto de tu vientre! ¿Quién soy yo para que la madre de mi Señor venga a verme? Apenas llegó tu saludo a mis oídos, el niño saltó de gozo en mi seno. Dichosa tú, que has creído, porque se cumplirá cuanto te fue anunciado de parte del Señor”.
Entonces dijo María:“Mi alma glorifica al Señory mi espíritu se llena de júbilo en Dios, mi salvador,porque puso sus ojos en la humildad de su esclava.
Desde ahora me llamarán dichosa todas las generaciones,porque ha hecho en mí grandes cosas el que todo lo puede.Santo es su nombrey su misericordia llega de generación en generacióna los que lo temen.
Ha hecho sentir el poder de su brazo:dispersó a los de corazón altanero,destronó a los potentadosy exaltó a los humildes.A los hambrientos los colmó de bienesy a los ricos los despidió sin nada.
Acordándose de su misericordia,vino en ayuda de Israel, su siervo,como lo había prometido a nuestros padres,a Abraham y a su descendencia,para siempre”.
María permaneció con Isabel unos tres meses, y luego regresó a su casa.
