“… 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. …”
“Jesus took Peter, John, and James and went up a mountain to pray. … His Face changed in appearance and His Clothing became dazzling white. ,,, behold, two men were conversing with him, Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory and spoke of His Exodus that He was going to accomplish in Jerusalem. … a cloud came and cast a shadow … from the cloud came a voice that said, ‘This is My Chosen Son; listen to Him.’ …”

“… ‘Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions. … There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest. … he said, “… I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall store all my grain and other goods … rest, eat, drink, be merry!” … God said to him, “You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you … Thus will it be for all who store up treasure for themselves but are not rich in what matters to God.'”
“On the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark,
and saw the stone removed from the tomb. …. as she wept, she bent over into the tomb and saw two angels in white … Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?’ … Jesus said to her, ‘Mary!’ …”
“… ‘Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her.'”
