Today is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The Communion Antiphon, Luke 1:52, "The Lord has cast down the mighty from their thrones and lifted up the lowly," came from Mary's Canticle after the angel Gabriel announced the birth of Jesus to her. Be lowly and the Lord will make you mighty. This is in accord with what Jesus said later in Luke 14:11: "For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted."
