Psalm 113: God Most High ? Mary's Little One, ? the Word - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Christopher Maronde, pastor of St. John-Bingen in Decatur, Indiana, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Psalm 113.

“Who is like Yahweh our God, who condescends to us from on high!” … Pardon? The old sense of condescension, referring to a superior graciously coming down to help a subordinate, captures the middle of Psalm 113, which says that God “looks far down on the heavens and the earth.” The great mystery is that the true God is infinitely higher than all our false idols, and yet He still cares about “the poor” and “the needy” like Hannah and Mary, going from infinitely far to infinitely close, God in Mary’s very womb, her precious little baby boy. We can only meditate on God’s Word because the Word first came down to our level in Christ’s incarnation, to rise and shine on us like the dawn, showing mercy and showing the way.
