Sure... It would also come with a healthy healing of humility... So I doubt Mary would have characterized it as such.

But it is another way she is set apart and why Catholics celebrate her... As John the Baptist, Elizabeth and the Servants at Cana certainly did.

I'm not trying to argue with you, but I don't think anyone can read Mary's "Song" as told in Luke 1:47-49 and NOT think she recognized a miracle had happened to her. It is hardly implying she lacked humility, just the opposite. She said:

    “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name.

You need no bible at all; do you!
